Love my Netgear but hate that you have to pay for customer service help after their warranty ends. Your device goes AWOL and expect it to happen more than once every year. All my netgear routers have stressed me out from time to time. Good luck Googling your unique problem that cant be found anywhere.

$199 here. Reviews are brutal for this at Walmart or netgear (this is the walmart version; Best Buy is Rax43) -Mainly lacking security or being pressured to pay more $ for security, very unstable, the app and installation are bad.

-sounds like a money pit. Good luck OP.

BS seem on a quest to find the most annoying user interface. OP's is a great example.

Yeah Netgear is skeevy. They claim 1 year warranty but after 90 days customer service is not free and they won't honor that 1 year warranty unless you pay them. What a scam.

Exactly this is why I walked away from Netgear as a very longtime customer (going back to the b router days). I picked up the AX1800 mesh system, and after 13 months the router was reverting it's settings on me. I didn't need the warranty, I was looking to ask into the firmware and see if others had the same issues, as well as report the problem so it could get fixed. Immediately they want me to pay.

I immediately replaced the routers (went with ASUS). I was working from home at the time and can't be on a router I don't trust as stable. For the record, the ASUS works fantastic, and with such a range, I haven't felt the need to add a mesh node yet.

Next time I need a router, I'll see if Netgear fixed themselves. If so, I might consider them. But if the ASUS stays solid for a long time, I'll weigh them in even more.
