Very pleased with this router. Upgraded from an older time capsule/router combo. Greatly increased our speed and provided two signals, one for 5g and one for not, which can be used for guest, etc. Also, has a nice auto cue security feature which allows me to instantly approve friends and auto share password vs. them having to manual type it in. No complaints.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have purchased several of these TV mounts and while they are not inexpensive, the quality of the product is not cheap. Tons of flexibility with this TV mount as far as how one can position a TV. If you need more than a simple "flat wall mount," this is great for applications needing mobility and/or diverse angles.

It is what it is. They make good cables and one should not be worried about using them. They are a bit pricey and if you are not going after 4k, it can be hard to justify the expense per say. But, having a quality cable that won't die on you in a year or so is a good thing. :-)

NETGEAR - RangeMax N600 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router - Black
Choose this NETGEAR router and receive high level wireless security, the ability to share photos, music and more, and a way to keep track of your kids’ activity online. Plus, with easy installation for tablets, smartphones and computers, you’ll be able to start enjoying Wi-Fi throughout your home right away.
My quest ion is,, will i be able to use it if i dont have internet service? I just need the wifi for my daughter's tablet and to get Netflix on my tv bu using the wifi without having to connect to the internet, will it be possible?
Nope... all wireless routers are simply transmitting an internet signal that comes from the modem which comes from your ISP. So if you want a signal that will carry netflix and/or other streaming services, there has to be an internet signal at some point in the chain. Hope that helps!

Is it better to get two separate router/modem or a combo?
Personal preference, that said I say yes. While you pay a bit more, if one aspect goes down, you don't lose both pieces of hardware. Also, there are seasons when the modem is fine but the router may need to be upgraded because of ISP contract speeds, which would mean upgraded both items because of one aspect. Thus, I have preferred to keep my modem and router separate.
My two cents, have a great day!

Where do you find a "Network Security Key" . I have a Netgear19 purchased at Best Buy a few years back. I just bought a new computer and in order for me to connect to Internet, I need this code.
Usually on the box, but also on the unit itself. If not, each router should have a online user interface that allows you to sign in and tweak security features and such, which should include storing your key. If you need to, contract company to get your info. Hope that helps!

Only @ Best BuySet up your television and DVR with this Rocketfish 4K UltraHD cable, and enjoy high-quality high-definition entertainment the way it was meant to be viewed. The 4-foot cable offers ample length for connecting components, and a triple-layer shield protects against interference. This Rocketfish 4K UltraHD cable supports transfer speeds up to 18 Gbps for lag-free enjoyment of your media.
Will this connect my MacBook Pro to my TV? I have an hdmi cable that doesn't work... I thought it was my laptop but I think it's the cable that is faulty.
It should... That said, it may be an interface and/or settings issue, not simply a cable. Not discounting that cheap cables can be a nightmare, just my two cents. You may need to look at your settings. I loop out to monitors all the time for both personal and professional use. Not sure if you went into your mac settings and checked monitor order, etc. That said, I would highly suggest hooking up via "thunderbolt" to hdmi as a port. Seems to work better... I am not expert, but it works well. So, maybe purchase one of those first, it would be about the same as a high end hdmi cable.

I have a Samsung 1080p 55 inch tv. I want to make my picture look a lot more HD than what it is without having to purchase a 4K. Working with 1080p what can I do to enchance a better picture? Do better hdmi cables do the trick?
No... no matter what someone says, digital is digital and transfers sound and picture at 1080p, etc. better cables are built better, creating longevity and quality at the pins (not missing pins), etc. Also, make sure your cables are certified!
If you are worried about the picture you can check the quality of your digital feed, etc. and if you have a great feed and want to get a better image then you are stuck going to 4K, but will only experience 4K with 4K feeds. Also, if you upgrade to 4K you will likely want high speed hdmi cables which increase bandwidth, etc.
I'm not an expert... just two cents from an average guy! Hope it helps.
