Solid router and very good performance Disclaimer: Netgear has not paid me to write this review or asked me to endorse this product (AX 8).

I am providing feedback based on 2++ months real world use of this product.Pros:1) Awesome design2) New Netgear GUI for setup and configuration – very easy to use and fast.

So many issues that I was losing my mind. I tried several fixes. Separate the bands, channels, etc. My security cams were going offline every 30 mins or so for at least 15. I was so fed up with trying to trouble shoot the device. My speeds were 580 – 670 Mbps with it which I did enjoy. But speed is only useful if its actually CONNECTED to the devices.Last ditch effort I tried…
