NETGEAR Nighthawk X8 AC5300 Tri-Band Quad- Stream WiFi Router (R8500)

In all honestly this Router/WiFi is everything the average person would want.But in my case, tri level and a 2" concrete floor it was just a bit under sized for me. I did have to upgrade. But this is a great unit.

Died with the first power outage

First power outage, the unit fried. Replaced it with an Apple WiFi router, which has survived a power outage since installation and done fine.

Cant really vouch for how good this is or isn't, I've not noticed any real improvement over the stock router provided by my ISP, and at times i still have connectivity issues, but it's got great LED's and looks the part!

Avoid this Router unless you have time and money for RMAs

I purchased the router new, used it for a week and then it started rebooting and never reconnected. There are hundreds of other customers with the same reboot loop/Amber power light error according to Netgear Community Forum.

I have 1 time black out issue, except that overall very satisfied... I am not sure this black out came from internet vender issue or this router issue yet...but booting time take more than 20 sec.

very fast, wide range, 1; speed wise #1; wify upto 2.5 (compare previous 1.5 even same 5.0MHz zone, 2; range : previous at master room some phone cannot capture wifi..; but it works no issue at all

very slow booting; some limitation of 5GHz connection..(look like max limit; and it has the function 2 wire NAS connection service; but cannot find any benefit came from this except stability

Top of the line

Incredibly easy to set up. It significantly improved the coverage at my place. True, it's more expensive... but I bought it to support a NAS. Definitely worth the extra cost if you're in the market for digitizing your media.
