Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Reliable performance for streaming, gaming, and multitasking. Gbps and 5ghz for wireless. Rented from comcast for years. No issues with comcast.

All-in-one solution eliminates the need for separate modem and router. Sleek design adds a touch of modernity to any space. The nighthawk is definitely expensive for a modem/router but i figure if i get the same longevity as my last one, it's be worth... Read More

Cons

I believe that the processor in this was overheating and throttling the speed. It’s super expensive and it says compatible with comcast, it does not work with comcast. Everytime we have a slight power flash it literally takes 48 hours to reboot it eno... Read More

Extremely painful process all around. Horrific product. Never again.

It’s ridiculous, ridiculous. Its so annoying and fraustrating. This is not acceptable.

I call netgear to ask for a refund on one of the products since clearly it is defective. They claim it should be working fine and they don't do refunds. Even though i proved that the item is defective, they expect me to pay $50 to get fixed even thoug... Read More

Quality

Quick and easy setup, excellent connectivity and clear instructions for resetting admin interface

The sleek design, ease of setup, and intuitive mobile app make managing my network effortless—checking speeds, setting up guest... Read More

The unit often dropped wifi, could only use wps after a reset and was very unreliable.

It doesn't throttle down even when multiple devices are attached to this modem.

Price

Saves me so much cost, and setting it up was easy!

This is the biggest bang for the buck that fulfilled my needs.

I was tired of paying the $15 a month for xfinity router.

I needed a new modem/router for gig speeds but did not want to pay $450.

Shipping

Ordered this for next day delivery and had it set up quickly.

Dropped it in place, contacted my isp to provision, set the admin password and went to work.

I wish i had my neighbors recommendation 18 months ago as it would have saved us time, money, and lots of agrivation.

Packaging/appearance

From the moment i unpacked it, setup was a breeze—within minutes, i was online without any hassle.

I saw the information on the outside of the plain label box and literature provided by the manufacturer with a very limited war... Read More

The retail box had some scratches on it with some dents (who cares), but the nighthawk was in perfect condition.

Competitiveness

In comparison to the default modem provided by my internet service provider, this thing achieves the speed i am paying for.

I purchased this modem as a replacement for the previous generation motorola that i had.

Bought this one to replace a competitor's modem-router.
