I have been using Nighthawk products for years! The updates to the app and the routers are making it much easier to configure and manage! Keep up the good work!

Great app that tells me everything about my connection to my modem/router, and who connected to it, beats needing a computer, I can even perform a speediest, and reset my modem/router if need be. A well thought through app
★★★★☆James Braus· Jul 5, 2026
I would give it 5 Stars, but it was difficult to Initially Setup. After that I am Impressed! It's SO Much faster than my 10-year-old Netgear! With Spectrum all Downloaded Movies and Shows play without buffering and smart devices instantly connect. Just hated the switch from old to new router devices. I must admit the app is Cool didn't have that before.

Trying to set up the eax17 and being in the ext Wi-Fi the app cannot connect to the device. It also keeps losing connection the main router despite my phone having a 900Mbps connection

The App and Router Efin sucks.... Don't waste your money there's better routers than Nighthawk/Netgear Company... It always has Errors and random disconnections... ..
★☆☆☆☆Jacob Reidel· Jul 18, 2026
Netgear disabled the login page to my R7000, forced to use this garbage. App won't connect without "internet" router won't change settings while "online" I disconnected WAN port, app "needs an internet connection" to change local Wi-Fi settings. Lies. It's connected and your app refuses to work. 3 months ago none of this was a problem. Never buying another netgear product, you lost a customer.
