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.

Love this router, it is faster than my last one. I have had Linxsys in the past and kept having to restart.

I gotta say after 4 years with our Nighthawk we are happy with it. Parental controls are easy to use thanks to the app and we can even administrate the router in a web app. Coverage and speeds are great, really worth the price tag.

My ISP’s router was failing after only 6 months use. As they no longer provided a dual band router and I still use some 2.5Ghz devices, my internet searches for routers led me to the Netgear Nighthawk. The installation was very simple and the Nighthawk mobile app worked perfectly for a simple and fast install. I have a 3400 sq ft single floor home and I was able to use my Netgear Extender to sync with my Nighthawk to extend my wifi to the farthest point in my home. I love the monitoring and support features in the Nighthawk app and my overall wifi speeds have increased over 2x throughout my home. I am connected with 2 laptops, a network printer, 2 iPhones and 3 Roku devices for a 4K smart tv and 2- 720 dpi tv’s totaling 8 devices. I am currently using 2 of the 4 wired connections for a laptop and the network printer and everything else is wireless and exceeding my expectations. Outstanding product and simple installation!

We set this up for our home wifi network along with a netgear modem. We have had it for over 5 years now and we have not had any issues with the setup. I have recommended this router/AP to all of my friends.

Easy to set up and very user friendly. Had an old cable company supplied router for the past 4 years and definitely needed an upgrade. Seeing much faster wifi speeds on this new router!

Had trouble with picking up the WiFi signal in certain areas of my house. Thanks to the nighthawk I have no problem picking it up anywhere inside the house. Great coverage!

The WIFI speed was amazing. When I did the speed test from the range I was from where the router is located, I was totally amazed. I am very satisfied with the product thus far. I have now over a week and so far so good.

I just followed the directions I easily found online. I downloaded the app to my phone and followed the steps.

It works fine. I just wish the area it covered was larger.

This is my second Nighthawk. I believe that pretty much speaks to the confidence I have in Netgear equipment. I also have a Netgear Modem and am very happy with both.

Awesome. Practically set itself up. Improved streaming service and all devices linked seamlessly. Would recommend.

Hello, I have had a Nighthawk for some time. I called with help for password reset and they said they could not help me unless I purchased a Technical Support Plan from them. Anything outside of 90 days – even questions – have to have a Support Plan. Would not recommend this product.

Phenomenal router! Would highly recommend to anyone that wants something reliable and powerful.
