Exceeded expectations
I always like having good Wi-Fi equipment. NetGear has never disappointed. We had a large home before we sold it six years ago and it was a wonderful unit. We moved it into our new home and had some issues with the signal not because of the equipment but because of our Internet service, I was getting on my Wi-Fi downstairs a signal strength of about 150 to 200 MB per second . Since putting in the new Nighthawk, my Wi-Fi connection speed is bordering 1000 MB a second. Thanks for creating such a superior product.

Finally a great router!!
Having some experience with home networking, I was dreading a new router. However, that was the easiest set up I’ve ever encountered. I was deciding between mesh, or a high end router. I chose the nighthawk and I am really pleased! WiFi range is perfect. My WiFi is actually giving me the speed my lan cables provide. If you are using the modem/router from your isp, do yourself a favor and add this router.

Great router!
This is a pricey router but it is worth it, 100%! I love the sleek design because it is not very wide and doesn’t take up very much space. I have 400 mbps subscription on fiber and this router is giving me 671, so even more than what i’m signed up for. By buying this router you will be futureproofing and not have to buy a new router for the foreseeable future as WiFi 7 hasn’t even been certified as a standard.

I'm upgrading from an ISP provided basic wifi 6 router. I was interested in trying wireless PCVR and read positive reviews from others. Shortly after getting it up and running I had no problems running my Quest 3 via airlink to my hard wired laptop. Zero latency and plenty of coverage throughout my house. Highly recommend router!

Great range
I tried a mesh wifi 7 system and it caused all sort of interference throughout my house and did not deliver the quality of internet speed I expected. This device did deliver. Apart from cutting out the interference with my other devices the range and speed was nearly 1gb (870mbps) from one end of the house to another. My former dead spot in our master bedroom no longer a dead spot. It provided range and reasonable speed in our second floor as well. Close to 150mbps. I still opted for an extender add-on for the second floor and saw 500mbps so it definitely boosted the signal. I’m very with this router and at a much cheaper price than other mesh systems I’m glad I returned it for this device.

Amazing speeds and solid connection
Upgraded from a netgear nighthawk rax200 and this thing is giving me wifi speed tests of double and thats using a wifi 6 device. So you still get a speed increase even without using wifi 7. I would highly recommend this for both range and speed as my range has doubled! Overall i am overly satisfied with this device and would recommend it to other or buy it again.

Great router!
Had this for 6 days and so far, I have had no issues whatsoever. I upgraded to this from the Netgear RAXE500 mainly due to the 10 gig port in case I ever upgrade to more than 2.5 gig internet and to support my 10 gig LAN setup. I appreciate the longer range of both the 5GHz and 6GHz channels to the point where I am sticking with the 6GHz more often than before and the 5GHz channel covers my entire house now.
The features I mainly use work with no issue on the latest firmware (V1.0.7.66_2.0.72 as of this review), with Address Reservation being very snappy thanks to the extra ram and email logging working out of the box. Thanks to this, I do not regret purchasing this router.

This is by far the fastest router I have had. I had a mesh network for my smart home before and everything would drop off the network. This was very frustrating especially since I had cameras and half of the time they wouldn’t work. Ever since I switched to the NETGEAR nighthawk everything has been running smoothly

Top-of-the-Class Performance with Notable Caveats
This device excels right out of the box, delivering exceptional performance that easily sets it apart in its class. It's a powerhouse that seamlessly takes charge, but there's a catch: some basic features, such as website monitoring, are locked behind a paywall. In Netgear's ecosystem, what many consider a fundamental function has been rebranded as part of parental control, which may not sit well with all users.
The iOS app functionality feels restricted; for instance, it doesn't allow changes to DNS settings or the activation of IPv6. Those in need of advanced configuration will find the web interface far more accommodating. Additionally, the app seems overdue for an update to properly support Apple's Dynamic Island, a miss that detracts from the overall user experience on newer iPhones.
On a positive note, the integration of Bitdefender's firewall right from the get-go is commendable. Not only is it a top-tier security feature, but it also grants access to Bitdefender's full suite of anti-malware software—undeniably a best-in-class solution that significantly enhances the device's value. The combination of the router with Bitdefender's protection is impressive.
However, the cost of parental controls feels steep. Given the price, one might expect a more robust and feature-rich parental control experience. In summary, while the router itself and its integration with Bitdefender are exceptional, the additional cost for comprehensive parental controls leaves room for improvement in terms of functionality and value.

Powerful Router
The router works very well and reaches all parts of our house. It is fast. I would have preferred have more instructions in about installation in the box rather than simply being told to do it all with my cell phone, but so be it. I had some difficulty installing it but that likely was as much due to my inexperience with my cell phone rather than the installation itself. However, on contacting support, I was serviced by a very helpful and patient member of the support staff. Overall, I think this is a great product.

Top Tier Tech
I had been waiting to replace my router till WiFi7 became available due to needing 2.4ghz and the more current frequencies in a single unit. Many of our smart home bridges and appliances require the 2.4ghz band and we had relied on a much older device to support these items. Our internet speeds suffered on our newer devices which connected to 5ghz. The nighthawk wifi7 router made this possible so we now get ~550 speeds from spectrum. Only had it running a short time but expect the kind of reliability we have experienced with our other NETGEAR equipment from over the years!!

Tri-Band WiFi 7 Router
I purchased the WiFi 7 Router to improve WiFi signal strength throughout our home, and it did. My latest Surface laptops have the 802.11ax WiFi protocol, and I do measure 1.2 Gbps download speeds in the 5 GHz band with the laptop and router in the same room. Comcast provider. Nice bonus. Using the 6 GHz band is in the future. The router automatic selection of WiFi band (2.4 or 5 GHz) works well, but band selection (and WiFi speed) can change day to day when the laptop and router are in different rooms. Quite satisfied with the new router.

First Netgear Router
I finally get to utilize my gig service that i pay for. The unit is a bit high priced, but I figure if it works and covers me for the next 5-6year, not too bad. After installing I was able to get 950-975 up and download with this router. The wifi side was great. I am pulling 500-600 down and 375-425 upload from my cell phone and other newer electronics. Set up itself was pretty easy. It was getting some of my older wifi things connected. I had to end up separating out the bands because when the bands were combined (how it is from the start) they would not connect. After getting the bands separated things connected much easier and the 2.4GHz band pulls double of what I was getting before. I am glad I ended up just with the router and not the Orbi system for me. This router unit covered my whole home. Over 2500 sqft and even at the furthest point in the house to the router, I still get full upload and download on 5GHz band. At this time, I dont have anything that will connect to the 6GHz band yet, so cannot say how well that works. Overall I am very happy with the router.

A Router Worthy of Dethroning My Nighthawk R7000P
This thing is a beast. It will be the successor to my Nighthawk R700OP which will also compliment my CM2000 modem. Very expensive but a 100% improvement on the RAXE500 which I purchased over a year ago but returned it because it was a nightmare with ridiculous wings that couldn't even lock into place, this router has succeeded where there RAXE500 failed. So much more stable, not high maintenance like the RAXE500. I live in a 100 year old house with old-school construction and the shape is ranch style and this router hits from one end of the house to the other, punching through all the thick walls. I have a gig-speed package with Xfinity and I can easily hit 1100-1250 mops on wired and wireless. There's only one LAN 10G port but that's fine because I can just get an unmanaged 2.5Gbe switch for more devices down the road. Setup was a breeze because thankfully Netgear had enough wisdom to not deviate from the design of the R7000P's login page.
Excellent product!

Worth the investment
This router blows away the Mesh WIFI6 which I have been using since it come on the market. My speeds are consistently 1100 to 1400 mbps.
I would highly recommend making the upgrade to WIFI7.

RS700
The RS700 is by far the best NETGEAR product I have used to date. I’ve been a dedicated user of NETGEAR products for many years and they are robust.

What an Upgrade!
I purchased the RS700 to replace a Netgear AC1750 router. With the old router I was seldom able to achieve over 200 Mbps over Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi 5) and usually was limited to around 150 Mbps when only 2 rooms away. With the RS700 I receive over 550 Mbs at -41 dB with the same devices at the same distance.
Unfortunately, I am unable to use the enhanced 6E and Wi-Fi 7 options since none of my current devices have that capability, but this router is clearly ready when I do upgrade those devices.
Easy to setup, great in use, worth the cost.

Satisfied
Unit appears to be functional. Upgraded from the AX8 which was working mostly perfect after almost 6 years. Has all the same features in nighthawk app to remote control via mobile device. So far so good on performance.
I only have a few items of feedback:
1. Could the price be lower maybe if it didn’t include the armor year subscription? More flexible to most folks
2. (And this is why I went 4 stars) I bought this device solely for the 2.5gb port as I recently updated to 2gb fiber. It would be nice to see multiple ports on future models. Additionally, I can’t seem to disable WiFi 6ghz banded network which I’d like to do since right now none of my WiFi devices support it. Should be able to disable WiFi networks that are not in use.
3. I Wish it could be oriented horizontally feel like it would be less imposing mounted to the wall if it could.
Aside from these minor nitpicks the unit is working as expected. Does not feel warm to the touch either like the AX8 used to get. Now we pivot to the longevity test

Love my router, the coverage is awesome!!
The NETGEAR Nighthawk BE19000 Tri-Band WiFi 7 Router (RS700) is fantastic. It offers super-fast speeds up to 19 Gbps, perfect for streaming, gaming, and large downloads. With tri-band technology and powerful antennas, it covers large homes easily—I love the range so much that I don’t even feel the need for a mesh network. The setup is easy with the Nighthawk app, and it includes top-notch security features like NETGEAR Armor and WPA3 encryption. Plus, its sleek design fits well in any space. If you want a reliable, high-speed, and future-ready router, this is a great choice!

It is easy to install your self, the only downside is that you have to buy your modem separate specially for those that are using Comcast cable,
I upgraded to this router because of the amount of devices, speed and G6 option, my older router was giving problems of connections due to the amount of devices I have at home with this new nighthawk router I have good signal through my home with a constant 55 connected devices.

NETGEAR Nighthawk RS700
I have been a huge Netgear fan for at least the past 10 years. They never fail to impress me with their lightning-fast and reliable wireless capabilities for all my wireless devices. I always look forward to the newest innovative routers and mesh systems they offer every year. The RS700 router was very easy to setup via the Nighthawk app and it's up and running within 10 minutes. For those who hunger for lightning-fast internet speeds for gaming or streaming, it has to be the Netgear RS700.

I was originally pick up Orbi system, but when I saw that Nighthawk Wifi 7 coming out. I immediately change to this router (RS700). I house is two story 2400 sq.ft. with 50+ devices, this router alone can handle all of it without droping any of my devices of the network for IP reservation like alot of older router. All in all is a great improvement from my older RAX200.

This replaced my many years old, but still working fine, Netgear Nighthawk R7000. Giving the RS700 the same SSID the transfer was transparent and all my devices connected up just fine. I have Gigabit service via Xfinity and there were also zero issues with that part of the setup. I have had the router a week or so now and everything is running very well. No problems. Zero complaints. A good buy and I would do it all over again.

Great match for my fiber connection
I recently upgraded from coax to a fiber connection, added to the neighborhood and went with a 3Gig connection. My network has not been updated in a long time and none of my equipment was 10Gig rated. This router has been a nice upgrade so far. The signal coverage is enough for the house and all of my wifi devices connected with no problem. I like the easy to access the WPS button on the front. I was able to add a netgear wifi extender and it blended in seamlessly to cover my shop space detached from the house. I’m waiting on my 10Gig network cards right now to finally test speeds over 1Gig in my house. I bought this router directly from amazon the next day I found this router on netgears website with a 10% discount. Make sure to check their site before making the purchase. Amazon did not price match netgears pricing so I had to use the return process to get the best price.

I replaced my Nighthawk WiFi 6 router with this poorly engineered WiFi 7 device. Performance on most devices connected to it are now sub-par in performance. No, they don't need replacing too!! Response from laptop, Rokus, Echoes are now as good as any dialup modem can provide!!!!
I HATE THIS PRODUCT!!!! I'M SICK OF THE POOR LATENCY!!!!
The world is not ready for WiFi 7... your version, anyway!
Also, the Active Armor scan confuses and prolongs the setup of all devices.

Fast with great throughput. Easy to setup with many features I like. The Netgear router software is easy to use. Can have up to 200 devices, I have 47. Stream my TV’s. Connected devices include doorbell, cameras, security system, smart light switches, garage door opener, etc. I consider this a very good purchase. I have purchased more than one router but this one stands out as one of the best. However a tad pricey but all Wifi 7 routers are.

Seamless Setup and Superior Coverage
Here's a review for the NetGear NIGHTHAWK WiFi 7 Router:
---
I recently upgraded to the NetGear NIGHTHAWK WiFi 7 Router, and I am thrilled with the results. The setup process was incredibly easy and straightforward, taking only a few minutes to get everything up and running. Additionally, the router arrived quickly thanks to the fast shipping.
One of the standout features of this router is its impressive range. Unlike my previous setup, which required multiple WiFi extenders, the NIGHTHAWK WiFi 7 covers my entire home effortlessly. The range on all three channels is significantly better, providing strong and consistent connectivity throughout every room.
Another great aspect of this router is its cooler operating temperatures. It runs much cooler than my old router, which is a huge plus for long-term reliability and performance.
Overall, I highly recommend the NetGear NIGHTHAWK WiFi 7 Router to anyone in need of a robust and reliable WiFi solution. The only downside is that I wish the accompanying app offered more advanced features. However, this minor drawback does not overshadow the overall excellent performance and coverage provided by this router.

Fast Router that works well as primary router
I've had my rs700 since September of last year. It's done well. I had an orbi mesh router in place and I am still using it. I made the rs700 the primary router, which I've attached the orbi mother router too. It's a good thing I still have the orbi because Apples airplay does not work with the rs700.

Nighthawk Router
This router is the best unit I have ever used. I tried a mesh unit in my house (not the ORBI) which was a piece of junk. Then, I decided that I might only need a good single powerful router in my house as it is small. Well, I got the Nighthawk and it is fantastic. The coverage is great and the setup is easy. It is by far the best unit I have ever used. I highly recommend it!

Future proof, expected quality.
If you’re looking at this router, chances are you are fairly well informed about networking and looking to future proof a bit. It holds true to the Netgear Nighthawk name for quality that we all expect, there’s no fluff added to the description, it does what it says it will. A fantastic piece of hardware, in a much more appealing form factor than previous models. The firmware is also what you’d expect, user friendly, responsive, and well laid out. I expect many years of consistent, reliable use out of this router, and fully expect it to stand up to the test of time.

Fast, Reliable, nice features. I use NextDNS so the parental controls built in I am not using, and they are an additional cost which is a bit ridiculous considering I paid over $700 for the router - parental controls should be a standard feature. My old ASUS WIFI 6 router had the parental controls built-in, just a shame to see NETGEAR following the corporate scum route and try to DLC standard router features.

Blazing fast coverage
I just upgraded my Netgear nighthawk AC1900 to the new Netgear nighthawk RS700. I also recently upgraded my internet speed to 1gbps speed. The reason I upgraded my router was due to the fact that the AC1900 caps @ 1 gbps speed. The RS700 caps @ 19gbps and a range of 3500sqft. The ac1900 on a speed test could range from 80mbps to 200mbps. The RS700 is a constant 800mbps speed when I test it. I also like the flexibility of grouping devices in the router. I can set parameters for my children and they know at 10pm the WiFi will auto pause until morning time. I also like the Netgear protection that will assess connected devices for threats like malware etc. in summary: if your looking for the latest, fastest gaming and streaming router on the market. The Netgear RS700 will not disappoint.

Use the browser option for smooth setup
My 12 year old WIFI 5 router was limitied to 4 WIFI connections. It was legacy, no longer supported. 4 connections were no longer sufficient here. My home WIFI connections became unreliable. It was time to spend money for an upgrade.
I bought my router locally. The price, plus the retailer's customer appreciation rewards, was similar to Amazon.
Unfortunately, I found both NETGEAR's Android and IPhone apps frustrating. They would not complete a router setup. I instead used the browser based setup from my desktop, which worked smoothly.
I get 97% signal strength in all four corners of my house on both floors. Neither I nor my wife have any complaints with this router. Once, the setup was completed. I am yet to walk the neighborhood to analyze my signal's range.
The jury remains out on the Bifdefender software. It seems like overkill, duplicating much of the phone security I already use.

Simply The Best
I was seeking a functional Wifi-7 router, as my roommates were complaining of dead spots with the ISP unit. What I got was an absolute beast that covers the entire house and out past our yard, at excellent speed. Our internet connection speed increased over the ISP unit, likely due to a much faster routing engine. We have a mix of 802.11a-ax units, slowly upgrading those that can to 802.11be. Everything has just worked.

Still doesnt work
I bought this in October as a Christmas present. It did not work out of the box 6 months later it still doesn’t work. I have spent hours of my own time alone and with tech support trying to get it to work. I just gave up. They are asking me to perform tasks that should not be asked of the average consumer. Oh, and since it wasn’t installed until after Christmas it is not eligible for a refund. Basically i have a pretty black paperweight. Be careful with this.

Avoid this RS700S Router
Avoid this RS700S Router. Constantly loses connection on the 6Ghz band. All 6Ghz capable devices disconnect repeatedly, and only become stable when 6Ghz band is turned off. Tech support is no help. Maybe a firmware fix will come, but for now this thing is half baked.

We currently live an older home with plaster walls, this router blows through them and gives us great Internet speeds on all floors, inside, and outside the home. NetGear has really stepped up their game with this new router, I can have 200 devices on this router at one time with no lag, plus a 5 gig hardline port that gives new meaning to watching TV shows and movies With our main TV hardline through the 5 gig port. If you’re looking for the best router on the market, go with the Netgear Nighthawk BE19000. Netgear, customer service, equipment, and warranty's are top-notch. I wish all companies worked like Netgear.

I have had two and both gave me the same issues. I've called tech support so many times, they know me by name. I'm currently in the process of trying to pay for an upgraded system. Not having dependable wireless service with my job and lifestyle is a no-go. I've had several nighthawk routers in the past with great experience as to why I felt this one would be an even better product but it was actually the reverse.

Amazing fast router
With the recent upgrade in ISP to a 2Gbps fiber connection, the ISP provided router was unable to capitalize on the possible WIFI speeds available. I researched for a week on different routers to look for and NETGEAR has typically always been my go to in the past. This router is on the expensive side but the power it has and ease of use of the features is incredible. Boosted my WIFI speed from 500mbps with the ISP provided router to 1700mbps and allows for much more smooth distribution to all my devices.

Replaced Quantum Fiber Router
We recently got quantum fiber 3 Gig service. They installed a c 6500 ONT and with that they supplied a separate router/pod. The pod was only producing up to 2.5 gig speeds with Wi-Fi 7 capable devices. It would randomly drop service and lag as well. We recently purchased a nighthawk RS 700 and it has been worth every penny. Wi-Fi speeds are faster and more control over network also service has not dropped since installation of nighthawk RS700. We were concerned with the installation with quantum fiber ONT but it has been a seamless transition just plug and play no need to do transparent bridge with network.

Upgraded and the champ
I have 1 gig fiber, and was using internet modem, firmware locked up so I pulled out my old netgear nighthawk r700. To get by. I instantly started searching online for a good router. I ended up buying this one. The range is a huge upgrade from my internet provider, I can reach the entire house. My firestick before was 4 bars, is now 5 bars on WiFi, I have 123 devices connected to it now. And it’s still running like a champ!! I tried to push devices to see if could. And it’s rocking it! My wish is another 200 square feet, so when working on dirt track car in garage I can get WiFi out there. It reached the garage, and connects but just on the edge of it.But I’m not complaining by any means. 2 story house here, everything inside is strong and never drops.

I purchased the NetGear Night Hawk 5Stream Dual Band WiFi Router two years ago and was impressed on the speed and reliability of the router. I upgraded to this new TriBand WiFi 7 router. With faster internet speeds available, this new router takes my WiFi connection and speed to another level. With WiFi connection to a PS5, TVs, laptops, tablets, phones and Ring camera system, my reliability does not skip a beat. This is what upgrading is all about and I can honestly say I am 100% satisfied with the results. If you were thinking of upgrading and your house has high data usage, it is definitely worth it.

Fast Wireless Router
Amazingly fast router with a decent amount administrative options. Runs on 3 wireless bands or you can choose smart connect, which automatically chooses which band is optimal for your wifi device. Wifi 7 is slight upgrade to wifi 6E. The 6Ghz network is the fastest when you are closer to the router with the fewest obstructions around the router. I have about 15 devices connected via fiber network and have no issues with speed or stability. The back of the wifi router includes a small number of ethernet ports, including a LAN aggregation port for multiple networks to combine together as one faster network. Overall, it's a good wifi router with many features packed into a relatively small box.

I was experiencing device creep. Adding a remote building and having additional people connecting to the Wi-Fi my existing Nighthawk router was getting overloaded. Setup was fairly easy as I kept the same SSID's and 2 mesh Extenders (Nighthawk X6). The Nighthawk app allowed me to turn off Smart Connect. My latency issues are gone and my speeds are 30% faster. Overall I'm pleased with the device.

Great as both a router and an access point
I have another RS700 that I use as my main WiFi router. I was so impressed with the increase in range that I purchased another for use in another part of my home solely as an access point. Perhaps that's overkill, but the hand-off from one to the other as I move through my place is seamless. I'm always getting great throughput. Orbis might have been another option, but I have a CAT 7 wired backbone installed in my place, so I use wired connections as much as possible for security. When I use WiFi I want equivalent performance, and the RS700 provides it. Highly recommended.

So far so good as far as functionality is concerned. I am worried about the shape of it because it seems like it could get knocked over easier than my older router. That hasn’t happened yet, hopefully it never does.

Very good but not perfect
I liked easy initial setup, most likely because I had Nighthawk app already for my previous router. The performance is somewhat a mixed bag for me. Definitely needs some improvement. Wi-Fi speeds close to the router match my gigabit internet - 0.5% @ 960-970 mbps. But connection can be unstable at times.

Amazing
We recently upgraded our router to the Nighthawk RS700 and could not be more pleased. It was extremely easy to set up, they speeds have been consistent and fast and the app provides a ton of information and is easy to use. 5 stars!

From out of the box to working like a charm it could not have been easier to set up. Used the nighthawk app and follow the directions. That's it! Didn't have any problems and it's faster than I could have ever expected. Good work y'all...

Great Router
I live in a large house in a rural area. I already have an Orbi which I love but it is old. Wanting to upgrade from a Verizon Router that’s supposed to be the best. However, the best never really worked. I went to the Nighthawk and with the extender I have the best upload and download speeds that I’ve ever had in the house. I still have the Orbi hooked up as well and use that but NETGEAR outperforms any other products out there

RS700
Absolutely satisfied as I replaced previous Nighthawk router and extender with single RS700… Covers broad area as advertised without need for added extender. Oh and did I say… Superfast. It increased my overall network speeds to their 1G potential for wired devices and wireless devices to rated limits. Setup was easy as always with NetGear Armor app / web client and support for remote access to cameras.

Above and beyond expectations
I had the Nighthawk AXE11000 and decided to try the BE19000 and absolutely no regrets better connectivity with the signal penetration through the walls not to mention the design makes it easier for placement. I’ve always bought netgear and this router here has proven I’m not wrong in doing so.

Satisfied with the RS700S
I have read all the reviews that state how easy it is to setup the RS700S. That was not my case. I wanted to setup the router with the web browser interface but it forced me to start with the mobile app. I wanted to have a separate SSID for each band because that was how my old router was configured so after the mobile app setup the router I switched to the web browser and setup 3 separate SSIDs, however the router did not see the SSIDs that I setup and still was broadcasting the default SSID from the mobile app. I reset the router and started over. I am not sure but what I tried on the 2nd reset of the router was to disable Smart Connect in the mobile app before switching to the web browser and then setting up the SSIDs and that worked.
The second issue was with Netgear Armor. I was blocking the update of my IPTV playlists. It identified this app as being unsecure. I didn’t know how to stop it from blocking that app so I just disabled Netgear Armor.
The third issue was that I have to cycle power to the router before the mobile app or web browser will connect. This makes the mobile app pretty much useless for remote access. Also I have never been able to get the Speedtest of the mobile app to work.
That being said, this router is a beast. I don’t notice and difference in the range of this router when compared to my old R8500, but the speed increased by 100 mbps. My ISP provides 500 mbps service. My R8500 would get from mid to high 400’s. The RS700S gets mid to high 500’s. This is with the same cable modem so the only thing that changed was the router. I only have 1 device that uses the 6g band and I have had no issues with that. The 6g band seems to be stable.
All in all, I am happy with my purchase. I gave it 4 stars because of my setup issues.

Game changer!!!
I purchased this router after researching other routers for a week. My last router was a Linksys and the NETGEAR RS700 has increased our internet speed significantly!! We have around 52 devices(Ring cameras, thermostats, iPads, iPhones, smart TVs, Xbox, PS5, laptops, dehumidifier, air conditioners, washer, Nest smoke/CO detectors, Keurig, Alexa) and have had no problems or issues with coverage or slow speeds. The price is expensive upfront but I feel you get what you pay for and this purchase is so worth the money! Easy setup by keeping my previous network name. Trust me when I say that this router will not disappoint and will not be outdated for a while. My whole family is ecstatic that we no longer have internet issues with connecting or dropping speeds. Thanks NETGEAR for creating such a great product!

Wifi7 and feature packed
Great router that is loaded with the latest tech. Netgear needs to release a companion Wi-Fi 7 based mesh extender ASAP for it though so that larger homes beyond 3500sqft or with dead zones can leverage it to get better Wi-Fi coverage. Also the overzealous use of subscriptions for basic features like traffic monitoring is a very poor choice on Netgear’s part. That should be built-in and local anyways, not something that is charged extra for, especially for a high-end, premium router like this.

RS700 Powerful WiFi 7 in a slick design
I was looking for a black normal looking WiFi and Netgear RS700 was it. It's fanless which is a plus. 10 gig LAN/WAN port. Easy setup. Mobile App is clean and easy.
I've replaced two mesh for just one as the coverage is amazing.
Setup and management of the RS700 are relatively straightforward, even for users with limited technical expertise. Netgear's intuitive interface provides easy access to various settings and features, ensuring smooth operation and customization according to specific requirements.
1 year of free Armor/Bitdefender. The nice thing is you can install Bitdefender on all of you devices for free. I wish the renewal would be cheaper than $100.
Cons: 4x1 gig ethernet ports instead of 2.5 gig would have been better at that price. No MLO right now. Parental protection is a paid services.

Slightly disappointed
I had bought an RS700S several months ago and was happy with it so when my daughter got 1gbps fiber and was only getting mid 500’s I decided to buy her an RS700S thinking she would get her full 1gbps download speeds. I setup the router and updated the firmware to version 1.0.7.86 and had issues. My download speeds were unstable fluctuating between 100-800 mbps and upload speeds were in the low single digits. I had similar issues with this version of the firmware on my router so I downgraded the firmware to version 1.0.7.82 and that fixed the stability and upload speed issues but I was disappointed in that the download speeds were in the low 800’s. I checked the hardwired speeds using the Speedtest on the QOS tab and it was receiving the full 1gbps but wasn’t producing that on WiFi. Still it was better than the ISP supplied router so we kept it. The other thing was the WiFi was weak on the kids side of the house. The distance was about the same as to the master bedroom but where we were getting mid 700’s there we were only getting mid 200’s in the kids room. I don’t know what is in those walls but it was a WiFi killer.

Great Upgrade
Recently upgraded routers from Nighthawk R9000 to RS700 (both bought from Amazon). Old Router had dual band 2g and sporadic on 5g, it was good but didn't always penetrate WiFi through all parts of the house, which is not a mansion by any stretch of the imagination. New router's 3 band tech (2g/5g/6g with 7g coming?) almost doubles both WiFi range and download speeds, with great coverage all over the home and property.
Connection to about 20 devices was flawless using wizard on phone app... (laptops, tablets, phones, printer, Alexa, thermostats, TV, smartbed, etc.).
I'd give it a 4.5 rating if I could - 1 small ding because it won't connect to my 2g 'personal' 5-in-one weather station unless I disable the preferred SmartConnect feature on the router.
Overall, satisfied, and will continue to buy and recommend NetGear products. Oh, visually, love the tower config vs. the 'spider leg' antennas, but best feature besides the connectivity is the quick button push to turn off all the blinking lights....clean non-intrusive look.

Router works great. My house is 2 stories and just under 4000 square. The whole house has coverage with no dead spots. I am coming from a Asus ax11000 and this is a great improvement. The one thing I would like to see improved would be to add DNS caching. Other than that, the router is able to easily handle 40 devices with (We have Amazon echos, Fire sticks, ring cameras, cell phones, tablets, PS5 and xboxs, smart thermostats attached to a brinks system, Samsung dishwasher-washing machine - dryer, and a few PC's).

Solid, Fast and Affordable
I had been considering upgrading from our previous NETGEAR Nighthawk Wi-Fi 5 Tri-Band router for a while and had considered a mesh system but our home is not large enough to justify the expense. After a lot of reading and consideration of alternatives I decided to go with the NETGEAR RS700, and I'm very happy with my decision. Even without the Wi-Fi 7 firmware update (to be released within the next couple of months) this new router is providing a significant improvement in connectivity and speed. We use to use a NETGEAR AX6 Extender to supplement the older Nighthawk but don’t need it with the new Nighthawk. We increased our throughput from under 100 Mbs to over 1 Gbs throughout our home and now we consistently receive the Internet download speed that we pay our ISP for, also throughout our home. Setup was easy and relatively quick. I'm anxious to get the Wi-Fi 7 firmware update and see what further performance improvements we will receive. Completely satisfied.

All My Devices on the Correct Bandwidth
I needed to reset my cable company provided router a couple of times each day. IOT devices kept trying to run a higher bandwidth than they could handle. This was very frustrating! My Nighthawk found and automatically configured these devices for the correct bandwidth. I have used it for a week with no need to reset, and I am getting faster Internet speeds on my WiFi devices. Well worth the money. Problem solved.

Couldn’t be happier with the router. Got 1 gig fiber Internet and my eeros 6pro mesh system would only connect with a speed test of 300-400mb. Tech support couldn’t help. I replaced it with this router and my speed tests are now 900-1000mb. Also, SIGNIFICANTLY better and further coverage with this ONE router than FIVE eeros 6 pro routers strategically placed around my property. The software is also great and easy to use.

Highly recommend RS700S Router
Originally was not pleased as I have 2 extenders (EAX15 and AC750). After calling NexGear was unable to connect the AC750 to the router but found that after finding the best place for the house for the EAX15 I have all of my 29 devices connected with good signal strength and have significant improvement with my cell phone on 6G. Would recommend the RS700S & EAX15 for those that do not need the additional cost of the Orbi 970.

I had high hopes for this WiFi 7 router
I ordered a NETGEAR Nighthawk BE19000/RS700 WiFi 7 router directly from NETGEAR. I read several reviews and they were rated mostly good about its features and fast wired and wireless connection speeds. I needed to replace an older TP-link router that has degraded WiFi speeds and often times disconnected on my 40 Wi-Fi devices. The new NETGEAR router came by FedEx less than a week after ordering. I setup the router using the Netgear app but then right away the WiFi was disconnecting from my iPhone 15 Pro Max and then it stopped connecting to it. All my other WiFi devices, such as the Ring cameras, won't connect either. The wired connections were working good but WiFi was not working. I also updated the router to the latest firmware, turned-off SmartConnect, rebooted the router, but all of this made no difference as WiFi won't work properly. I ended up returning the router for a full refund as it was defective.

Good router tinted by Armor
After setting up the router with the app, while all my existing devices connect fine to the router, some of my apps (iRobot, Rinnai Central, and occasionally Teams) cannot connect to their servers even though I get very stable internet connection. Turned out it is caused by Armor which got turned on when I was setting this up. The problem, however, is I cannot turn Armor off in the app, and there is no other way to turn it off. I had to reset the router and set it up through the web interface instead, where Armor is not turned on to begin with. And now everything works fine.
So here is the problem: this router comes with Armor subscription for a year and it is a total waste since it interferes with my app operations. Maybe not everyone runs into it, but if you do you might need to reset the router and lose all your settings.
The web setup interface though is not that great. One of the steps is to set the SSID, and once you confirm that step, you are disconnected because the SSID has changed. Sure that makes sense. But the next time you connect and try to reach the web interface, the setup steps start from scratch, and occasionally it malfunctions in a way where all the texts are blank even though the controls / buttons are still displayed.
But otherwise it is a solid router. I came from RAX70 and needed a multi-gig router after upgrading my cable internet. With RAX70 I couldn't get past 800Mb, with this I am getting >1.2Gb easy on just wifi 6.
I live in a townhouse with 3 stores. 5GHz signal is solid all over. Speed drops to about 600Mb at the furthest point.
Settings are fairly similar to RAX70. Some of the promised functionalities (high priority SSID, say) are not there yet, supposedly will be in firmware update later this year or early next. Looking forward to those, but even without those the router works fine.
I am waiting for my BE200 to ship in November to jump into wifi 7 just for the sake of it.
Would be nice for it to have a wall mount accessory. I would rather mount it high up on a wall than among the clutter on my shelve. I made one with a few brackets, works fine. Good thing it has 2 M4 screw holes at the bottom.
In short, please stop tinting your solid product with sloppy BitDefender software, and please make your mobile app work to disable Armor.

It was time to upgrade my router and I'm so glad I got this one. I more than doubled internet speeds on all my devices on my network without changing anything else. To say that I'm happy is an under statement. The only downside is I hate the app. I set everything up on my pc through a browser so it was super simple.

Easiest install! Great router
we had a unique situation where our installed mesh network Wi-Fi was very unreliable. I had delayed changing the router because I was dreading the amount of time it would take to set everything back up and connect it. Very surprised, however when I purchased nighthawk RS700, and found that by using the same network name and password all of my devices connected seamlessly immediately! Bye, for the easiest install process I’ve ever had in the range of the router exceeds what was possible from my network which blows my mind. Fantastic device and although it’s early, it stays anywhere near the experience. I’ll be a very happy customer. the setting from the app seem a little limited, but I have not poked around the website yet.

What a BEAST
This Wi-Fi 7 router is perfect for anyone that wants to future proof their network. Out the box it set up perfect and I was getting amazing speeds down and up.
The price you pay is due to the technology not being the standard yet. I paid the premium because I can but if you wait there will be lower prices and more options will be readily available in the near future.
NETGEAR made a great product I am very happy with it.
5/5 stars

Nighthawk review
Initially, I was hesitant to buy this product but it works even better than advertised. This router is the best one I have used and it’s very consistent pushing the speeds I pay for. Has a very big reach and even though I’d be far from the router, the speeds stay consistent. Definitely recommend everyone to buy it if you’re having WiFi speeds or internet issues first instead of upgrading their internet package.

Blazing fast speed
I just upgraded my Netgear nighthawk AC1900 to the new Netgear nighthawk RS700. I also recently upgraded my internet speed to 1gbps speed. The reason I upgraded my router was due to the fact that the AC1900 caps @ 1 gbps speed. The RS700 caps @ 19gbps and a range of 3500sqft. The ac1900 on a speed test could range from 80mbps to 200mbps. The RS700 is a constant 800mbps speed when I test it. I also like the flexibility of grouping devices in the router. I can set parameters for my children and they know at 10pm the WiFi will auto pause until morning time. I also like the Netgear protection that will assess connected devices for threats like malware etc. in summary: if your looking for the latest, fastest gaming and streaming router on the market. The Netgear RS700 will not disappoint.

Amazing!
One of the best routers I've ever had. The wifi connections are almost as good as being wired in. There could be two CONS to it though, 1. is the size of it (maybe the size of small vase) and 2. the setup through the app is fairly simple but with my experience it had bugged out and starting over was a slight issue (but fixable).

Excellent Router
From self installation to connecting to modem, the instructions were straight forward.
I got network immediately as compared to a previous router.
Network is fast and has remained consistent since purchase. No issues.
