Great router for a high demand home network
Easy setup, and very fast speeds. From a 1Gig cable modem ISP, I was able to pull full 1Gig speeds over Wifi on the 6Ghz band on my phone. 600-700 Gig over WiFi on all my devices connected to the 5Ghz band.One thing to note. We have Windows, Android, and IOS devices in my home. I had to turn off "Smart Connect" to get my Apple devices to connect. Smart Connect attempts to connect a device to either 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz, or 6Ghz bands depending on the type of device, and it's distance from the router. Apple TV, and Ipads don't like it. Simply turn it off in the Netgear app, and your good to go.Other than that, the router appears to be well built. The connections on the back and interface on the front are easy to access and understand. The app user interface is very easy to use. Although, I think it might be a tiny bit buggy, but it does the job.Our entire home is very internet dependent. We have over 25 devices connected, which includes 6 TV's, an 8 camera NVR, multiple: phones, laptops, tablets and bunch of other devices. The connectivity to all devices has been strong, and stable. Simultaneous streaming doesn't seem to slow this thing down at all. If you have a high demand home network, and want peak performance, this is your answer.Our home is 1,650sqft. The signal from this router goes way past the street in front of our house, and past the back fence of our back yard. I would say this router would work just fine for 2500sqft home. If your home is 3000+ sqft, I would probably go with the Netgear Orbi 970 Mesh system. I put one in my mothers home (two separate buildings on one property), and they rock. They are just much more expensive than this router.

Excellent upgrade to my home network
I was running a Netgear Nighthawk x10 (R9000) which I have loved for years, but it was aging and I had to add a repeater to get the signal to cover my whole house and out into the garage. I saw this RS700 series device and saw a significant price drop, so I made the purchase. I had it stood up and working in no time with my 10GB switch, NAS, multiple PCs and IoT devices throughout the house. It may have taken me an hour to 90 minutes, and this included me visiting all of my devices and upgrading network creds. I was also able to remove the repeater and I am able to get HD streaming out to my garage without issue. Everything is peppier, and it offers the latest connectivity and speeds. Not all of my devices can take advantage of this, but for the ones that could, it is a noticeable difference. I also like the smaller footprint for the device itself. Takes up far less space than my x10. I am able to manage it from my PC or the app on my phone with ease. There are some great monitoring tools with the app as well. It has made my Plex use snappier, and internet speeds are consistent throughout the network. If you are thinking of upgrading your home router, this is a solid choice. I get solid coverage throughout a 3600 square foot home that extends out into a garage on the opposite side of the house. Fantastic coverage and I have not yet found any dark spots in the house. (The app can help with that!) I highly recommend.

Signal Quality / Space Saving
Using the wizard for setting up makes it almost impossible to make any mistakes. The Netgear App. is a must in seeing what's on the network and helping to set-up. A person with NO network knowledge would not have any problem in setting it up, making changes, & checking settings. The WiFi gives a strong stable signal through the designated area. The built-in antennae make for a good looking, clean, space saving unit. The Netgear RS700 router is a bit pricy but well worth the money just in the time saved setting-up and signal quality alone.

Easy to set up, saw double the download speed on same modem
Compact, excellent range, amd fast, this is a winner.Upgrading from a 4 year old ax11000 router to this, using the same DOCSIS 3.1 modem, on wifi6, my download speed went from 580gb/s average to 1100!Setup was easy and there were no connectivity problems of any sort to my ISP.I do miss multiple and independently-controlled guest networks, but the RS700 automatically determines which channel and network should be used. Guest network devices are also discovered automatically, which is impressive, but I do miss that little bit of control.The free year of network protection looks extensive and will likely be worth renewing. The other brand of router had free-for-life protection, but the trade-offs are worth it for this unit.Wifi7 does require more open direct-line space for a solid connection, and changes to wifi6 after 20' or so, but local bandwidth/dl speed remains impressive relative to the replaced old router.Update [05.16.2035]I found how to manually connect to different frequencies (2.4, 5 ,6). By accident as I was doing more extensive testing. For some reason, the automatic channel assignment moved me to 5ghz from 6 despite mich lower ping and much faster speed on 6. Laptop on 5g runs faster and is at same place in room, without ping problems. Still looking into why, but I will rely on manual configuration from this point forward.

Netgear RS700S - Truly a top of the line Router.
This is truly a top of the line router. I tried a high end TP-Link and Netgear blows them away. Set up is easy and you still have the low level control to customize all the features you need. (Assign fixed DNS IP addresses based on MAC, specify starting IP DNS addr so you can reserve space for fixed IPs, WIFI7 and you can disable auto band assignment(2.4/5/6Ghz.- Auto assign needs work and causes problems.) WIFI signal strength is great and provides good sig, strength everywhere. Throughput is terrific and all devices max out to their capability. This is really a great router and rock solid in performance. BobM (Retired IT professional)

Amazing Upgrade From AX5400
Upgraded from the NETGEAR Nighthawk 6-Stream AX5400. Previously had to use a repeater to get a clean fast signal to the first floor. With this upgrade the whole house has the full 350mbps I pay for from my provider.Excellent coverage, very low ping/lag. Dropped a few ms from the AX5400. I’m using Cat7 from the outlet to the unit.
