    Great router

    I am a big fan of netgear and decided to stick with them even though there are other tempting options from asus and d-link at the moment. And I went with the x8 instead of the hot new x10 for a few reasons. One is bank for my buck, the new x10 and d-link have a 60GHz band but most devices can't use this band yet. There will be plenty soon but in my near future I don't plan to invest in devices that can operate this frequency. Not to mention the 60GHz needs to be very close to the devices connecting to it, 10 feet away and a wall are enough to drop the connection. The x8 has one 2.4GHz and two 5GHz bands so there is plenty of devices that are able to connect at higher speeds and the 2.4GHz gives great range. I have had no issue connecting anywhere in my home on the 5GHz (single story ...

    This router has failed one month after of open, and has irreparable reboot loop. Netgear don't help to solve the problem :(... suddenly, router began to reboot constantly and don't assign DHCP addresses, no receive Internet and was impossible connect to device with LAN ping, USB and any other form. Is a brick of $250 or more!! I do not recommend this article, please see other alternatives. (Please read "netgear r8500 reboot loop" in Google Search)

  • Router is so far the best

    If you are looking for a good router try this one you will not disappointed But it could use a little help for a big house signal strength excellent if you can afford it get a range extender it will help this router work at it best to prevent signal drop and be a good load carrier with the speed you have.

  • Broke within a week

    Stopped giving signal within a week despite current software updates. To begin with, in a 2000sq ft house, and a 300mbps Modem and internet plan, the fastest speed was 38mbps upstairs while router was in basement. Bought google WiFi.. my signal is now 240mbps!

  • Firmware causes it to brick.

    Received and set up, worked great the first day then nothing but an orange flashing light. Look up ac5300 brick and you will find on google a bunch of similar complaints. I read that if you take the time to load the first version software and don’t allow it to update that it’s a great router however I don’t think I should have to do all that. Besides it’s enormous. We bought an asus and that one has been fine.
