    30 customers mention19 positive11 negative

    Customers are mixed about the quality of the networking router. Some mention that it's awesome, a good machine, and a nice little router. However, others say that it has some crude router functionality that is turned on by default, and that it becomes an unconfigurable brick if you don't register it.

    9 customers mention0 positive9 negative

    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.

    "It requires a cloud netgear account to access all the features of the device, at least if you want to access it more than 3 times...." Read more

    "...The registration process requires internet on the device, which defeats the advertised use as an access point...." Read more

    "...The app doesn't recognize the device. How can that happen? The QR code on the device is "invalid" as well...." Read more

    "...download a certain app (phone only) to manage it; the app forces you to create an account, then after struggling to connect..." Read more

    Easy to setup but do NOT like the forced registration
    4 Stars
    Easy to setup but do NOT like the forced registration
    I don't understand why people complaining this is hard to install. It is not. This is a Netgear business access point. Says so right on the box. Even though it's very self explanatory. There even a setup guide that you can follow. You don't even have to have it connected to the internet to set it up. I wasn't connected to the internet and setup it up, gives you 3 options. Just choose the middle manual option, setup your SSID and wifi password and you good. Literally all you have to do and you up and running.This is an access point so your router does all the fancy routing, though this isn't a dumb switch and provided me with an IP hence why I was able to connect and set it up without connecting to the router.I haven't put it in production yet to see how that'll conflict with routers DHCP. So I'll update after doing so.I docked it a star because of the forced registration and you will not be able to go back and change the settings on the access point until you register it. However it does give you 3 attempts of full access without registering Incase you mistyped the wifi password like I did and gives you change to fix any mistakes and configure to your liking. Honestly once you set it up you won't ever have to go back in there anyways unless you resetting it to sell it or whatever.
