I work from home. I also homeschool my children. Between all of the work, research, articles and papers that must be done - we have a lot of devices that are constantly connected to our WiFi. It had been several years since we last purchased a router and it was long past time for an update. We're constantly needing to restart our router or even inch closer to a stronger signal. I've even found that angling my laptop toward the East seems to help! As much fun as that's been - we've moved on.
As a NETGEAR Ambassador, I was able to try out the
Nighthawk AC 1900 Smart WiFi Router and
AC750 WiFi Range Extender.
Though our home isn't large - it's also not tiny. This means that it was a bit tricky staying connected to our previous WiFi router when I was on the opposite end of the house and on a different floor than the router. I could always tell when it was about to disconnect. The connection would begin to be a bit sluggish and then suddenly disappear.
The
NETGEAR Nighthawk has changed all of that. It's capable of handling our updated devices and manage the tempo at which I need to work. Switching between programs and sites quickly is a luxury that is a necessity for me. Between online learning programs for the kids and my need to upload, post and view a lot of media - we've put a lot of demanding work on the
NETGEAR Nighthawk and it has held up nicely.
What we love
- AC1900 Wi-Fi: 600+1300 Mbps Speed
- Easy and automatic installation of the NETGEAR router with Internet provider gateway to upgrade your WiFi
- 1GHz Dual Core Processor
- Beamforming+ improves range and performance
- High powered amplifiers and antennas to extend your Wi-Fi coverage
- Includes: Nighthawk AC1900 Smart Wi-Fi Router, Three (3) detachable antennas, Ethernet cable, Quick install guide, Power adapter
We often move our homeschool lessons or my daily work to the dining room table. This is on a different floor and on the opposite end of the house from the router. The
AC750 WiFi Range Extender has come in very handy for this! When I know that we'll spend a few days in the dining room working on lessons - I plug the extender in on that side of the house.
What we love
- Extend your existing Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home
- Eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones in hard to reach areas
- Lower your phone bill by reducing data plan charges
- Create faster access for 802.11 b/g/n and AC Wi-Fi devices
- Create access points in your home and improve Wi-Fi coverage
- Connect a wired device like Blu-ray player, game console, smart TV or streaming player to your Wi-Fi network
- External antennas for better Wi-Fi coverage and more speed
When I know we'll be in the classroom and will have no need for the
WiFi Range Extender, I plug it in near the upstairs printer - for wireless printing! The combination of this router and extender have been a great addition to our work and school schedules. Thrilled to finally have this boost in ability to get through our work without interruption!
