Provides good wifi on 2nd floor of raised ranch. Have not tried it with Roku TV to clearly bring in subscription choices. Had previously experienced "buffering" with the apps.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Is for internet and voice (telephone) but has only one port for the yellow internet connection which was inconvenient when connecting with the router. Wifi good on 2nd floor of raised ranch.

if you are just using the ethernet ports for connections, in my case to the computer and tv, is the wi-fi still 'on', emitting waves? if so, can you disable the wi-fi?

My guess is the WiFi is on but if the TV (apps. that require wifi such as Roku TV subscriptions services) and/or computer are turned off then the Wifi is not needed. Not sure about disabling the Wifi.

I have the Netgear N600 that I bought 4 yrs ago. I am getting an icon that looks like the antivirus icon but it is red in color with the message netgear is dangerous. What does this mean. Do I need to purchase another?

if uncomfortable about these icons have the system checked out by the Geek Squad or other qualified person.
