The R7000 Nighthawk AC1900 Smart Wi-Fi Router from Netgear uses a dual core 1GHz processor and AC1900 Wi-Fi technology to deliver speed and performance that’s perfect for gaming and streaming HD video. It supports both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz wireless frequencies, providing up to 1900 Mbps (600 on the 2.4 GHz band and 1300 on the 5.0 GHz band) data transfer rates.
The Nighthawk router utilizes Beamforming+ technology, meaning that unlike omnidirectional Wi-Fi which fans the signal out within a range, it communicates directly with devices such as tablets or smartphones, and beams a signal specifically to the device. This reduces interference, and provides stronger, faster, and more reliable connections. Mobile Wi-Fi speeds are much faster than previous technology thanks to the router’s high-powered amplifiers and antennas.
The R7000 Nighthawk router also supports both Google Voice assistant and Amazon’s Alexa for added functionality.

We have had a a few drop spots in the house with poor internet signal, but getting this nighthawk has been a lifesaver. There are no more drop spots in this house. So worth it!!!

Setup instructions were not correct. Once installed, router worked well and increased speed significantly over that of older Netgear WiFi router.

This router has really enabled my entire family to be able to game/stream simultaneously without all the whining and complaining about lag or buffering. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Great router in terms of speed achieved for Wifi especially on the 5G band. Took some teething issues to set up as configuration is not always automatic especially with fiber optic modems but with help from Netgear and some knowledge of networking the puzzle can be solved. Happy it is working smoothly now.

I was surprised to find a non-standard firewall in this product, but see how the NETGEAR approach can work. Blocking access to new devices – after all mine have been connected and “Allowed” – is a good approach. However, the “Armor” that is intended to protect my router and all things behind it on my side of the “firewall” – is not optimal IMHO. Having an external (internet side) “guardian” – which might be turned towards political ends (like censorship) and which is placed outside my control – is a nagging suspicion. I believe that someone may have gotten through my router into my network already as well, but that is an ongoing investigation.

My old router, even in its best days, never had the speed or coverage that the Nighthawk has.

Overall good product. Some what difficult to set up for repeater option or bridge option. Range of wifi is somewhat small.

I bought this router to manage equipment at a small engineering site. It will also provide WiFi for engineers when they are onsite. It is perfect for the job.

We have only had this up and running less than a week. This brand and model was recommended by a friend. It works well for our cord cutting, steaming apps now. We are so glad we got it.

This router took a little longer than I expected to install, but after reading the user supplied docs on the web it works perfectly.

GREAT speeds, able to process my 1gig wi-fi plan and I have had no issues thus far!

It was easy to setup but I seem to be having issues with my TV buffering much than ever before. Spectrum says there is nothing they can do because it is not their router.
