What customers say about "Key Specs"

NETGEAR N600 (C3700) DOCSIS 3.0 WiFi Cable Modem Router

This definitely uped my WiFi speed. There hasn't been any lag since I started using it. We have 3 playstations, 2 smart tvs, 2 laptops and 5 smarts using going at once.
We are able to connect multiple devices to the internet wirelessly and not have reduced speeds.
Haven't had a dropped connection from any wireless device yet. The speed of the wireless connection is great.
The Internet is very high speed and there is good connection to all of my devices.
Works fine EXCEPT wifi speed is not good for over 30mbs on Comcast, I pay for 200mbs and wired is better but still has a Max of only about 120mbs, has the latest firmware but that makes no difference.
Cable speed is as fast as the modem I was renting from Comcast but the range sucks.

NETGEAR AC1900 Nighthawk Wi-Fi DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem Router

Right out of the box the performance with this Nighthawk Modem is amazing I’m reaching the max that my connection is allowed in my area until I upgrade my package at a later time but right now I’m on the Blast 93Mbps/12Mbps speeds.
Has increased my home network speed significantly. No more speed issues.
Great speed and reliability. Also has great distance, am able to stay connected even when at the pool of my apartment
So much better than the regular come cast modem ! I have three nest cameras and a lot a lot of devices hooked up and speed is awesome !!
It works fine, but I keep loosing downstream channels from 16 down to 8, usually lossing channels 1-8. This is extremely annoying because it causes my download speeds to drop, no significantly, but enough to be an annoyance.
Wi-Fi performance is routinely bad, even for devices near the router. Wired connections work great though (hence the two stars)

The range is great! It also has a built in USB connection to turn an external HDD into a network attached storage.

This modem / router is a good buy but needs more eathernet connection ports

What customers say about "Features"

NETGEAR N600 (C3700) DOCSIS 3.0 WiFi Cable Modem Router

This is having dlna feature too, you can plug USB storage devicen plan wirelessly
It comes with a nice web interface and has a mobile app.
Easy to install and set up, great range on 2.4GHz, works perfect on different internet providers, good speed.
Sometimes loses connectivity on 5G and has to be reset.
The only con is that in an average size home, about 2,550 sq ft, the range doesn't reach very far and an extension in needed.

NETGEAR AC1900 Nighthawk Wi-Fi DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem Router

24x8 Channel Bonding that’s 24 Downstream channels and 8 Upstream channels allowing for a better connection. This means I’ll enjoy full connection with the Comcast Servers while at high peak usage hours in my town when everyone is connected.
The combo modem and WiFi is easy to connect and very fast.
Crazy Wi-Fi range (even connect in backyard)
Never had to restart/reset router (unless service interruption occurs by ISP)
Using an external router with the AC1900 could complicate setup due to the unit already having a built-in WiFi antenna
The app is confusing. I haven't looked closely but it wasn't intuitive and I haven't set a custom network name/password yet.
