This is definitely a great modem with all the specs needed to support my needs. Matched up with a Nighthawk router and I'm in a much better place then before with my rented gateway.

Great for piece of mind

The nest protect looks great and works great. Best to replace all at the same time since older hardwired smoke detectors work together and replacing one at a time would actually be a safety issue since you want them all working together. In other words, when one goes off you want the other to go off too so you can hear it/them.

Great router for smart home

Verified Purchase:Yes
After comparing a few above average routers I decided to spend a little more and go with the Nighthawk version. WiFi signal covers my entire house including the garage, front porch and back deck. It can definitely handle many devices with no problem. Has all the specs I need and performs much much better then my old rented gateway.

Wanted a wired/USB mouse which wasn't easy to find. Wireless has it places but sometimes old-school is best.

Used them in the master bathroom around the tub/shower about a foot from the ceiling. Definitely added to the look and feel of bathroom. Added a motion sensor for night which activates the nightlight setting.

Meet the secure, tamper-proof smart lock from Nest and Yale. It~s keyless, so you can lock and unlock the door from anywhere with the Nest app.[1] Give people you trust a passcode instead of a key, and get alerts when they come and go. And lock the door with a tap. If you forget, the Nest x Yale Lock even reminds you.

Steve's Review Comments
The CORSAIR iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT lets you intelligently control up to six PWM fans and multiple RGB components while accurately monitoring system temperatures, all from a single device. Automatic detection of any combination of individually addressable CORSAIR RGB fans makes for easy setup, with out-of-the-box control of up to 264 RGB LEDs on compatible CORSAIR RGB devices. Two included temperature sensors allow you to keep an eye on your system and create automated fan curves for the most efficient cooling. Powerful CORSAIR iCUE software ties all of these capabilities together in a single interface. Complete with a USB 2.0 pass-through to connect an additional internal USB device and embedded magnets for easy installation, the CORSAIR iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT puts your setup at your command.

If your PC is in the Corsair ecosystem this will be a good device for controlling Corsair fans and argb. iCue software is required though it's a pretty good reliable software.

It depends on the connection type of the RGB/aRGB devices you plan on using. I made my own with spare connectors I had from previous builds. Watch this YouTube video which should be helpful. Corsair Lighting Node hacks for non-corsair RGB devices.
