Totally worth the price!

Quite an upgrade from my previous router( a D'link DIR-524 router in use since 2012), and I was not disappointed. I actually prefer a wireless network over a wired one as most of my computing experience on a day-to-day basis is on a laptop. And when you have cables and dongles dangling out, the mobility is restricted to an extent. Hence my quest for a seamless wifi experience router led me to this beast.While researching for my new router I narrowed down on Netgear Nighthawk x4S, and TP-Link Archer C2600 - both dual band (2.4+5 GHz) routers that compete in the AC2600 market slab. Both offer 800 Mbps theoretical max thoughput in 2.4GHz and 1733 Mbps in the 5GHz bands. Anything beyond is an overkill, because your client(laptop, desktop, tablet, smartphone, smart-TV) would be limited by the capability of the onboard wireless adapter. Here is why:(i) The top wireless cards for laptops available today in the market (Intel Wireless AC8265 and Killer Wireless-AC 1535) are both capped at theoretical max throughput of 867 Mbps and 2x2:2 MU-MIMO. Highly likely that your laptop will have a previous gen wireless adapter than these two, which means that it would be a still slower device.(ii) The top USB adapters: TP-Link Archer T9UH (4x4:4 - four-transmit x four-receive: quad-stream), ASUS USB-AC68 (3x4:3 - three-transmit x four-receive, tri-stream), D-Link DWA-192 ( 4x4:3 - four-transmit x four-receive: tri-stream), are all limited to AC1900 speeds (600Mpbs on 2.4GHz band and 1300Mbps on 5GHz band) . The Edimax EW-7833 ( 3x3:3 ) is capped at AC1750 i.e 450Mbps for 2.4GHz and 1300Mbps for 5GHz band.Note that the number of spatial streams that can be multiplexed over the air is dependent on the number of transmitting modules.(iii) The wifi modules onboard even top-end smartphones will also be no better than 2x2 ac wave2 limited to a max throughput of 867 Mbps.Keeping this in mind, though there are more capable routers available in the market such as Netgear x8, ASUS RT-AC88U, ASUS -AC5300, the max theoretical throughputs will still be limited by the capability of your wifi clients. The Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800 comes at a much cheaper price tag and is not short on features and hardware specs.Significant Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800 features:1) Intuitive user interface and easy setup (some ISP providers restrict access to one ethernet MAC address per connection, so while setting up the new router make sure you either use the computer's MAC address, or copy the MAC address from old router to the new router)2) Theoretical max throughput of 2600 Mbps (800 + 1733). I use an Edimax EW-7833UAC USB adapter and getting blistering(quite literally as the USB adapter heats up while streaming 1080 movies for hours) fast speeds on my lappy.3) Dynamic QoS for optimal bandwidth prioritization by application and device.4) Packed with features such as ReadyCLOUD, ReadySHARE printer and vault, Open VPN, Guest Network, and Device Whitelist/Blacklist, secure remote management and remote access of data. Support scheduled backups of your connected devices.5) DLNA and USB compatibility for wireless media streaming from USB attached external HDD and/or NAS.6) Hardware specs are second to none - Processor: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ8065 (1.7 GHz, 2 cores), Memory: 128 MB flash and 512 MB RAM. In comparison the TP-Link Archer ac2600 has a previous gen Qualcomm IPQ8064 1.4 GHz processor and a flash memory of just 32MB!7) 2 USB 3.0 + 1 eSATA ports.8) In comparison to other high-end routers, this one is not that heavy/bulky.9) Supports the future-proof 160 MHz spatial stream.10) Wifi range: I get decent coverage in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 Ghz bands in my flat (2000 sqft), so can't really complain.11) Configurable in either of Router/Access Point/Bridge modes.12) Comes with India specific power adapter.RED FLAGS:1) The system time is stuck on Jan 1, 1970.2) There is a nifty little feature ( "Turn off wireless signal by schedule") that allows you to schedule wireless downtimes (you may schedule the router to turnoff wifi signals in either or both bands overnight) to save power, but the feature is inaccessible due to some bug in both the pre-installed firmware, as well as the latest firmware available for dowload(V1.0.2.20)Neither router reset nor updating to the latest firmware could solve these two bugs. Turns out NTP server update is disabled by default and there is no way to enable it via the GUI. SOLUTION: Finally came across an NTP patch of an earlier version and flashed it promptly - everything works perfectly now. Now the system time is accurate, as well as can access the "Turn off wireless signal by schedule" feature. Hope Netgear release an updated firmware version and not just a patch of an earlier version.

Worth the money invested.Seller: Prompt 2-day delivery by "Shopper's Pride". The offered deal was for INR 16,550/- which was close to import cost (~ INR 16,200) from amazon.com

Decent router, considering the fact that it is a successor to X6 First off, router ships with a 2-prong adapter instead of a 3-prong Indian adapter.Secondly, router powerup time is significantly reduced by 30-35 seconds, compared to X6. So, it will be up and running in no effin time It supports smart connect for all 3 bands even though I reckon its a hit-and-miss More often than not, it will connect to a 5 Ghz band based on the client performance metrics; it will then revert to 2.4 Ghz, if need be, as dictated by the client performance. But it won't upgrade to 5 Ghz again should you close up on the router. Well, at least it did not, in my case. So, I have disabled smart connect and control all 3 SSIDs manually.It doesn't support Dynamic QoS, as of now, but might be enabled in the future through a firmware update.It supports MU-MIMO and Airtime Fairness. MU-MIMO requires client capability, in addition to router capability, and I don't have any MU-MIMO enabled devices, so couldn't test it.Enabling airtime fairness makes sense if you have legacy device(s) in your network which might hold up other faster devices 2.4 Ghz performance is almost similar to that of X6 but 5 Ghz speed is comparatively increased at long range, methinks So all in all, a decent router Obviously, not the fastest out there but not the slowest, either
Great router!
By Ganesh Gopalanon
This is an awesome router. It is tri-band, so it offers quite a speed (3.2 Gbits/s). I got it as a replacement for an ASUS RT-AC68U. This is a much better router with no dropped connections. On one of my systems, I'm getting the full 90 Mbps from ACT Fibernet in Bangalore. Recommended!
A decent router but overpiced
By Sridhar C Eon
Impressive in looks, with a space craft like appearance, the Netgear R7000 does offer dual band wifi with an option for a guest network as well.I was replacing an old Belkin and wanted a "more modern" and a faster router. In terms of set up the R7000 is easy enough to set up and I could get it running quickly. In terms of performance the speed is perceptibly faster. However the range was the same as my older Belkin.The router scores on speed and the Netgear genie app where analytics are possible in addition to setting up the configuration.The analytics help in measuring the signal strength across your house/office. The interface to the router settings is impressive and it's a breeze to set it up. Netgear routers have a humongous amount of information available on the net and so help is always available if you want more from the router.In the final reckoning I guess the router is good but not value for money at the price I paid for it. The range of 5 GHz as expected is limited and the overall range showed little improvement given that I placed this router in the same place as my earlier one (1st floor, in my entertainment room).Recommendation: cheaper routers are available with decent speeds as compared to the R7000.
V good router of all times looks are fabulous
By Aftab khanon
One of my favourite router of all times itz look are so good the many will ask you about it and reguarding speed it depends on your isp but this router will surely blow your mind in every aspects also itz range is quite decent and if your singnals are still weak then get a good range extender.
