Abstract: Since the release of AC1900 wireless routers we here at Hardwarecanucks have tried to cast as wide a net as possible. Everyone ASUS, D-Link, and even Linksys are now represented in our charts, but one company was noticeable by its absence: Netgear. While ...

Abstract: We only have a could of gripes with this one, really: the front-mounted USB 3.0 port isn't ideal if you want to keep a drive permanently attached and its 2.4GHz speeds, while adequate, were outdone by many others in this category. Those drawbacks aside th...

The Netgear R7000 Nighthawk Smart Wi-Fi Router has good looks and a cool name, but as always it's what's on the inside that really counts. We liked Aesthetics are always a personal issue, so you may disagree with my assessment, but the design, sharp angle...
If you need a fast router, and don't mind having an external modem for your actual Internet connection — and you're happy to set up the network in the first place — the Nighthawk R7000 fills that role perfectly adequately. It looks good, runs reliably, an...
Stand-out design, Excellent short-range speed, Useful mobile features
Long-range performance wasn't great
Netgear's Nighthawk router offers an impressive array of features and, most importantly, it serves up very quick 802.11ac speeds. It wasn't great in our long-range tests, though. Nevertheless, consider picking it up if you're in the process of implementin...
Well... where to start on my final thoughts? I know! Build quality. Here I found no issues with the R7000; the plastics are durable, all the solder joints look really good on the PCB, and everything is shielded and heatsinked appropriately. The overall s...
The all-new Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 Smart Wi-Fi Router offers stellar performance on the 5GHz band, and an excellent set of features. It's also relatively affordable for a top-notch home networking device
The router's ridiculously bulky and its performance on the 2.4GHz, though fast, is slower than its top competitor. Its Web interface doesn't offer access to its parental control feature, and the Netgear Genie mobile app doesn't work over the Internet
The Netgear is expensive, but earns its $200 asking price with incredibly fast speeds and useful features....
Sharp design, Great throughput at 5GHz, Excellent range, Wonderful QoS, Full VPN capability
Less-than-expected throughput at 2,4GHz band, Painful Bridge mode configuration, Slow to apply settings changes
Excellent throughput and range at the 5GHz band, lots of features (including full VPN)?plus a cool name?all make the Nighthawk one of the best routers we've seen from Netgear in a while, despite a few annoyances...
