Customers have negative opinions about the compatibility of the router. They mention that the support provided by Amazon and Netgear is useless and uninspiring. They also say that the app does not recognize the device, and the Netgeart Hawk software does not support this machine. Customers also say the registration process requires internet on the device.

I setup mine in Router Mode (It comes in that mode by default), and it setup without any difficulties.
The WiFi signal is strong and steady as compared with older Netgear Routers I have owned in the past.
Since my ISP only provides up to 100 Mbps service I didn't have to change out my DOCSIS IPV4 modem, so, this router is truly backwards compatible with a few Advanced Router tweaks, mainly setting the IPV6 setting to Passthrough.
Cons - You do have to download detailed User Manual information from the internet which is easily found!
Summary: If you want a up to date product at a 'Crackerjack Price' this is the router for you!
