I set the router up right out of the box using the methods from that were sent Now my work webs sites are blocked. I checked for blocked sites on the router and noting was in the list just as I have have gone through all the browser applications to check security and rest them. The sites are still blocked

Living in todays overcrowded wireless world isp supplied routers and most soho routers seem to be overwhelmed with interference. I recently moved my office to an annex on my house to find even after adjusting channels there was simply no signal. I bought this hoping to make sure my work and play pcs both worked well. Instead of 25 Mbps of bandwidth available as found with the ISP device I’m getting about 250 Mbps here and the full 500mbps in the main home. As a network engineer I’ve seen enterprise grade hardware perform far less satisfactorily than this did even before adjusting channels. Great purchase.

Upgraded to this router from an older name brand router. The setup was easy, just make sure to update the firmware using an Ethernet connection. This router has the security features I was looking for and the Wi-Fi range covers our 1,700 sq ft home with full basement without any issues. We also have no problems with Wi-Fi out in the yard. I would highly recommend this router.

This router is top notch! Streaming Wi-Fi with no problems and so easy to install and with the app a breeze to make changes.

When this router works it is awesome, the best functional and easiest to work on router I’ve ever owned! But even after 3 years and the latest firmware along with multiple documented reports of the issue, it will require an in-plug and re-plug once a day, internet will just completely stop working on your devices even though there will be a white light on the router.

I actually have wifi throughout my entire house. It is running multiple devices great as well.
Albert Schaefer (verified owner) –
I ABSOLUTELY STAND BY THIS PRODUCT. I HAVE BEEN USINGNTHIS FOR 3 YRS WITH NO ISSUES. HIGHLY RECOMMEND WITH FULL CONFIDENCE.

I have had this router for numerous years and have not had a single issue with it. I can stream my fire sticks with it as well as run my household utilities it is a workhorse and does the job that needs to be done.

The router does have some speed but issues persist even after updating the firmware. All of the laptops that have tabs always do not work on the first time trying to open or pretty much anything on a browser including phones. After opening a few times it works well but is rather annoying and totally not worth the 299 i paid for it. I get better usability out of a router that is way older with out any issues buyer beware as I will never purchase netgear again period.
Mack Maggio (verified owner) –
I can’t update the firmware and the router seems to be dying now. Some of the 5 G networks will just stop working or randomly rename the SSID, effectively dropping everything attached to that network. Kind of annoying.

My old Netgear dual-band router had seen better days and so I decided to give the R8000P a go. The initial highlight of the features for me was beam forming, which helped me overcome WiFi dead zones in my home. Then a few other features stood out and impressed me. The ability to check the speed at the front end of my network, the improved logging with attack identifications, and the level of network control and information that’s available from within the Nighthawk app. On top of those things, I was also pleased to see the same familiar web interface that I prefer to use while implementing more complex router configurations such as subnetting, vlans, address reservations, and internet/WiFi scheduling. I’m still in the process of testing Netgear Armor during the free month trial that was offered, but I can say that I already like it and will be purchasing a full year subscription. Previously, I was paying for a Fing subscription to analyze my network and help to find/track vulnerabilities and issues. But now, my Nighthawk has the same abilities built into Netgear Armor. One feature that I would still like to see is the ability to receive notifications when a device goes offline. The Nighthawk app also has the option of utilizing Circle for parental controls, which includes managing your child’s internet usage, device time and content restrictions. Something I plan to work with more moving forward. Overall, a Nighthawk router is a worthwhile upgrade and has convinced me to spend more on my home networking in the future. The features and performance differences are honestly worth it.

Never had WiFi work better in my life. Have over 30 devices hooked through it and still super fast

This is the first Nighthawk Wi-Fi router I have ever purchased and I am so glad that I did. It was very easy to connect to my modem, and the connection to my network was simple. I love the fact that there are three available bands to use. Many household devices connect with the 2.4g band, while my smart tv works well with the 5g. Then there is the second 5g allowing for future technology, I don’t have cable channels, so I stream nearly all of my tv content. A lag is such a rare occurrence that I might as well say that there IS no lag. This is a router that I would recommend to anyone searching for a dependable Wi-Fi router.

This is our second router just like this. We had to get a new one because ours was struck by lightning. It was so easy to set up, and the mobile app makes trouble shooting so much easier along with general management. I can even limit device internet access with the app. Great purchase!
Elissa Keebler (verified owner) –
We replaced our nighthawk with an Netgear 66, a really big improvement especially the speed. 100% satisfied

Works great, covers a large area with appropriate signal. Can simultaneously connect several devices without issue.
Tiara Jast (verified owner) –
Great router but at random if you lose power sometimes it resets itself to factory settings so you have to set up your network again. And it never seems to accept the firmware updates
Laney Moore (verified owner) –
Added this router inside my new Pastor’s Study and it runs everything seemlessly.
Hyman Romaguera (verified owner) –
Works ok, easy set up, but the range is limited. I’ll see if an extender will help.
Kaden Hessel (verified owner) –
Great signal throughout the entire house. We had issues with a previous router with WiFi signal and strength, but this router really came through! Easy to install!
