Not what you expect

It works, but it doesn’t push out wifi speeds any faster than my old Apple Airports. The stronger security protocols doesn’t work. I receive emails alerting me of firmware updates and my system never updated the firmware as it states none are available. Customer service was no help at all the 2 or 3 times I reached out. I will replace at some point with different company focusing on Apple Homekit compatibility. Apple please bring back the Airports!

This is a great app if it was standalone. The basic information that is needed about your home network is readily available. This gives you a piece of mind to see what’s going on with your network whenever and wherever. But there are some very frustrating things that need addressed, and that is the Circle app. I wouldn’t be too upset if this was a free app, but considering that it is an expensive service that you just pay for, I was expecting more. The Circle app provides parental controls. This is great, no doubt. However, there is no transfer of data from the Nighthawk app to the Circle app. Meaning, once you set up all device names in the Nighthawk app, they do not transfer to the Circle app. This is so frustrating. The Circle app only shows each device’s MAC address and not the IP address, and this makes it much harder to get each device set up. If there was a data transfer from Nighthawk to Circle, it’d be much more user friendly. The lack of data transfer is like a car dealership selling you a year of SiriusXM radio, but your car doesn’t recognize the channel names, only the channel number. Other than that, I am a big fan of Netgear and their products. I have always used Netgear and will continue to do so.

For several months I was unable to see my devices on the app and unable to control them. It seems after a firmware update, I was able to see all my devices again.
Support link on the app does not work

Support link is broken. I can never get connected to the support. Now Speedtest no longer works
Terrible

The products work great but this app is annoying to deal with and clunky, my extender randomly stopped working and I’m trying to fix it, it needs my login but it automatically does a face scan with no username and no passwords then locks me out for 30 seconds then, it turns out I forgot my password and everything so I follow what it says and go to the website and this magical “popup” for logging in doesn’t show up. So now I have an extender that doesn’t work anymore because of this app. ??? Great
