    I have this router. I really do like it. It’s great quality and extremely reliable connection. It has one major flaw, however, that Netgear could easily address via firmware update: Its Port Triggering interface is horrendous. You can of course specify a range of ports that will be delivered to a device. But the problem is, you can only list one specific port as the triggering port. It needs to be a RANGE of ports for both trigger and deliver. Linksys routers get this right. And please, don’t tell me to use Port Forwarding. It is inferior to Triggering because port forwarding reserves a port for one device. But then if you have another device that needs that port, you’re out of luck.

    I decided to go with the XR300 Nighthawk after this video about a year ago. Since then, have had to replace one unit with customer support and have continuously been on customer support since then and just can’t seem to get it to consistently give me the speeds I need. Currently paying for a gigabit of internet. I’m getting 800-900 consistently via a wired connection but never more than 50mbps via wifi. I live in a 800 square foot apartment and I can’t even consistently FaceTime a family member 20 feet from this router. Netgear customer support hasn’t been able to figure out anything and I’ve just about given up on this router. My old Apple AirPort Extreme from waaay back gave me higher speeds than this thing.

    ​@Antonio morones well you have to use atnt modem router. But from my last understanding of that thing is you can put that atnt router/modem in bridge mode which turns off wifi and turn just into a modem. Then connect your router with ethernet cable in number 1 ethernet jack then set up the router to connect to the internet then everything goes to the router you brought. If there no more bridge mode you can put the router ip address in the dmz zone so you don't get double nat.

    This video is for enthusiasts like me. If you want a cheaper solution that will still upgrade your stupid xfi gateway to a better setup, then try the netgear nighthawk ac1900 (c7000v2) modem/router combo, paired with the netgear ac1900 mesh extender. I also recommend turning on their fast lane technology on the extender to commit to one band for maximum performance. The extender should be relatively in the middle between your router and your device. Always run speed tests for the best setup.
