  • Really great unit.
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
I bought this 1 year ago and have used it daily ever since then with 3 users' PCs, phones, laptops and tablets, It's been used for routine web browsing, e-mail, online purchasing and ...wait for it...gaming. I've had several modems and routers. I prefer Netgear overall. This one and the 2 prior were this brand and were trouble-free. The ONLY reason for change was to upgrade due to improvements in the current technologies. Also my earlier units were combination modem-routers. This time I got a modem that takes advantage of the near-DOCSIS 4.0 speeds I can now get. (Hitron CODA56 Multi-Gigabit DOCSIS 3.1 Modem) I have Comcast/Xfinity which is upgrading its systems to DOCSIS 4.0. Xfinity in my area is officially DOCSIS 3.1. However, not all DOCSIS 3.1 modems are created equal. Some are more advanced than others and can take advantage of the system upgrades. This unit is NOT a modem. It is a dedicated router. It runs perfectly. The WIFI on this router handles the whole house (slightly over 2000 sq. ft.) The grandson games on a pc in the next room via WIFI. The streaming boxes on our TVs run on the wifi from this. Zero negative issues; it just works. Install was very normal and no issues. I absolutely highly recommend this unit - especially in combo with the Hitron modem as earler stated. ... show more

  • Impressive Router -- Faster With Greater Reach Around The House!
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
This new WiFi 7 router is a winner. Reasonable price, top brand, easy to setup, and terrific coverage throughout our large home. With the latest technology, super-fast speed, tri-band, and excellent reach even with multiple devices at the same time, I'm not sure I could ask for more. This unit replaces a fairly new WiFi 6 dual-band router with 8 antennae from another major company. Frankly, EVERYTHING about this new NETGEAR BE9200 router is better, faster and easier... and the footprint is much smaller. I could not be more pleased with this router or its performance. A terrific upgrade! ... show more

  • Excellent Wi-Fi 7 upgrade — fast, stable, and worth it
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
I recently upgraded to the NETGEAR Nighthawk RS280S, and it has been a huge improvement over my old ISP-provided router. Setup was quick through the app and I was online within minutes. The speed difference is immediately noticeable. I’m getting much higher download and upload throughput, lower latency, and far more consistent performance across all my devices. Streaming 4K video, gaming, large downloads, and multiple phones/tablets running at the same time no longer slow anything down. Coverage is excellent too. Signal strength is strong throughout my entire home, including areas where my old router used to struggle. The 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands handle heavy traffic really well, and devices stay connected without random drops. I also like the 2.5-gig port for faster wired connections and future-proofing. Everything feels responsive and stable, even with lots of devices connected at once. It just works, which is exactly what I wanted. Overall, this router delivers great performance, easy setup, and reliable coverage. Definitely worth the upgrade if you want faster Wi-Fi and better stability. ... show more

  • worked good out of the box

Did not work as good as the replacement router but ours was having issues. Excellent product and good quality no big problems using over 3 months. Easy to install.

  • RS280S - Setup was Simple and Seamless Connection of all Devices
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
This review is for the Netgear RS280S (BE9200). Overall setup was easy through the iPhone app and took about 20 minutes. Runs strong and speed test confirms I am getting the full download and upload speeds I am paying for. The network is tri-band (2.4, 5, and 6 GHz) which will help keep things moving as more and more devices become connected. There is also only ONE network to select -- as opposed to the 2.4 or 5 options on my 7 year old Netgear that I replaced today. I have strong wifi through my house (basement, main floor, and upstairs) and all across my backyard. I was prompted to either accept the pre-programmed network name or given the option to change the network name and password to match my old network. Great option, as this allowed all devices to reconnect without a new logon (Ring, Nest, hue light bulbs, Alexa devices, Maytag Washer and Dryer, all phones, computer and TVs) all worked automatically without issue or having to log devices in. Overall very happy with this purchase. ... show more

  • Red Flags: Dark Patterns The Router
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
Its been 15 years or so since I bought a Netgear Router, Figured Id give them another try, Nope, never again. This thing technically works but let me tell you some things you should know aside from its technical specs. 1) The app is heavily pushed, in fact if you dont already have some skill there isn't a way to get around it. But on initial connection if you type in 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 (this will cover almost all people) you can bypass the app FOR NOW. 2) you will at some point again get pushed to install the app on your phone unless you can see the little grey writing that says "I dont have a smart phone" This is called a dark pattern. It doesnt say "i dont want the app" or "id like to continue with advanced installation" it tries to demean you. This is how all the phone games with micro transactions work. 3) Updates MANDATORY theres no way i could find to skip them. 4) Painfully slow restart time for a router of this price and generation 5) Initial setup makes it seem as if registration is mandatory (which it might be for some features see another point below) 6) Required complex admin password. Do i own this router? if I want my password to be "password" or nothing thats my choice. 7) Geo-location tagging. One of the first things it does is determine your location, WHY?! just be a router! 8) I could not find anyway to see the routers settings without the App. the 192.168.1.1 trick no longer works after the very basic setup. It seems you MUST have an online account with them do change any of the setting in YOUR router. 9) there's more but this has taken enough of my life from me. You don't own this router. its theirs but you will pay for it upfront and possibly continue to pay with the information they farm from you. Why would anyone pay for this? just get the router for free from your internet company, its the same deal. ... show more

  • Excellent router, extremely fast. Easy set up.
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
I had to replace my old Netgear Nighthawk router because there wasn’t going to be anymore updates to it and I was due to get a new one anyway. This router was very easy to set up and since I was able to use my same router name and password, it made logging back into everything sooo much easier. The speed I picked up was amazing, especially since we have so many smart home devices. There’s no lagging, buffering or anything like that. I’m extremely happy with my purchase and the price. ... show more

  • Great speeds but may be a bit finicky setting up.
Style: 9.2Gbps, 2.5G Port
Great router but not necessarily plug-and-play. Replaced previous Netgear that we had for 14 years but wanted to upgrade due to adding several WiFi devices. When we first plugged this router into our cable modem, the router turned on and we had WiFi access, but no internet. Turns out for our cable modem, the traditional method of turning on the cable modem first, then router did not work. We needed the router on and connected to the modem and then performed a software reboot on the cable modem. At that point the router was able to get an IP address and the internet starting working. Speeds (especially at 6Ghz) are incredible. ... show more
