Review: Great router, but one minor problem. Read this if you have port forwarding issues - This is the first time I've bought my own router. I've always used the one supplied to me by my ISP and it's terrible which is why I decided to buy a new router. This review is a comparison between my old ISP router and the NETGEAR R6700 router. Below I'll state the issues I've had with my ISP router and how my new R6700 has resolved these issues. My ISP router has many issues. My dad owns a Roku and I couldn't for the life of me get the internet to work on it. This is the main reason why I upgraded to the R6700. I tried everything including whitelisting the Roku's MAC address and making sure the necessary ports were open. I pay for Netflix mainly for my dad and he couldn't use it or any of the apps on his Roku. This connectivity issue wasn't limited to just the Roku either. My sister also couldn't connect her PS4 to the wi-fi and most phones and devices couldn't connect either. I consider myself fairly knowledgeable when it comes to configuring a router and I believe I did everything I could to fix these issues. The router just seemed faulty and I don't think even my ISP would be able to get it to work. Now that you know why I bought the R6700, I'll explain what I think about it and how it resolved my issues. The router was pretty simple to set up. I just had to plug the cords in and connect the ethernet cable from the new router to the old one. I didn't want anyone connecting to the old router, so I went into the settings and disabled the wi-fi. I was able to get the new router set up using NETGEAR's android app. It was very simple and it didn't take long. Once I messed with the settings, I tested it to see if the Roku would connect. It successfully connected and my dad hasn't had any issues watching his Netflix since. All of our devices like phones and consoles have been able to connect to the new router as well and there hasn't been any issues. The internet speed is fast too and it's probably faster than my old router. The price is good and overall I would say that this is a great router. Especially for the price. Now the minor issues I mentioned in the title was getting port forwarding to work. It wasn't an issue with the R6700 itself, but rather my setup. I have the R6700 as well as my old router set up and linked together. I couldn't get some ports to open on the R6700. I did some searching and discovered that this is a pretty common issue if you're using two routers. What I had to do was go into the firewall settings of my old router and enable DMZ. I just needed to enable it and put in the IP address of my new router, so all connections would be forwarded from the old router to the new one. After doing this and making sure I had the right ports open on the R6700, my program was able to detect that the ports were open and finally worked. Before I end my review, I want to give some advice for people setting up a new router. ALWAYS change the default login password for your router. Leaving it set as the default password is a big security risk and can lead to your router getting hacked. Use a unique password that isn't associated with any other accounts and make sure the wi-fi password isn't the same as your login password.
Review: Buy once, never worry again!!! - NETGEAR Nighthawk R6700-100NAS AC1750 Smart Dual Band Wi-Fi Gigabit Router 1.5 year update: It's been more than a year since I bought this product. As mentioned earlier, I am totally satisfied by it's reliability. No issues. 6 Month Update: It has been over 6 months since I bought and installed this amazing router. Here are my specs: 1. Number of times I had to restart the router: 0 2. Number of times the internet was dropped: 0 3. Number of times the speed was down: 0 This router has surprised me and keeps me extremely satisfied. 3 Month Update: It has been over 3 months since I bought and installed this amazing router. Here are my specs: 1. Number of times I had to restart the router: 4 times Reason: Twice because the modem had to get updated and once because the router firmware was updated. 2. Number of times the internet was dropped: 0 times 3. Number of times the speed was down: 0 times In conclusion, my purchase of this modem has been one of the wisest decision I have made. It is still going strong and I hope it continues that way. I plan on updating after another 3 months. I am from an electrical and computer engineering background. While I am certainly not an expert on networking, I am decent enough to get into the details such as advanced configuration of router. All these years, I was depending on various single band routers (TP-Link, Almond securfi etc). However, there was still these on going issues such as signal dropping, lack of coverage, decline in speed etc. Upon some research, I find that Netgear Nighthawk AC1750 router had among the highest reviews for dual band routers, in relative to other brands such as Asus or Linksys. So, I decided to give this a try and ensured that I buy an insurance from Square Trade, while ordering it over desertcart. Being a prime member, I got this product within a day. Hooking up the cables and setting up the SSID and passwords was a breeze. As several others have pointed out, simply follow the instructions that is given in the booklet that comes along with this product. While setting up the router, I recommend the following: 1. Use the CAT 5e cable that comes along with the router to connect it with your modem. 2. Hoping you have an android phone, use Wifi Analyzer to find out the channels that don't have much traffic and set that channel on your router. 3. Ensure your router is away from other electronic devices and is placed atleast couple of feet above the ground. Since I have set up the router, I have been getting close to 90 MBPS, whenever I do a speedtest. My comcast package allows me 75 MBPS. A note, I did purchase the latest Arris SB6190 surfboard modem, that allows 16 bonded channel downstream. I personally believe, the beamforming technology in this router simply makes it superior to other brands, in that, it concentrates on communicating with only connected devices, rather than worrying out emitting the signal throughout the place. The router is above average in size and looks awesome. It's been over 10 days since I purchased this router, and I have never faced any issues that I had with my previous routers. The speed is consistent even during the peak hours. I am hoping this would be the router that I have been waiting all along, which doesn't require me to spend time on restarting or reconfiguring. I intend to post updates every 3 months, moving forward. Happy streaming!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by J***Z on July 28, 2020*

Es un buen router de categoría intermedia. Desempeña excelente todas sus funciones, buen alcance y buena velocidad (400mbps en promedio por Wifi). Doble banda 2.4 y 5 Ghz. Ademas soporta una buena cantidad de dispositivos conectactos vía inalambrica. Puede exprimir la velocidad de las conexiones de fibra (menores a 400mbps). Ademas ofrece la capacidad de instalar el firmware DDRT, este firmware ofrece capacidad de personalización extrema. (También es muy fácil regresar al Firmware de fabrica). El único punto en contra es que al configurar un cliente VPN por openvpn la máxima velocidad alcanzada es de 45mbps. Esto se debe a que el proceso de cifrado lo hace el procesador del router y no le alcanza para poder realizar el proceso mas rápido, degradando la velocidad. En mi caso con una velocidad de 200mbps solo podía obtener 45mbps. En resumen: Un excelente router para usuarios normales. Un buen router para usuarios avanzados. No lo recomiendo como un RouterVPN.
