Excellent Router (At&t - U-Verse)

I bought this as a substitute for the At&t wireless modem (The creepy Motorola modem provided by At&t). It really works more than I expected.
First of all, the installation and configuration was really quick. Once the setup is complete, the NetGear Genie app was popped up for the installation, without knowing it, I just wanted to give a try. I installed it in my laptop and later I found that the Genie App provides most of the features in a single click. All the other modems, you may need to open the default gateway and then wait till loading. This Genie app does everything for us.
Few days back, I was given the Motorola NVG510 modem by the At&t when I took the connection U-Verse, the total CREEPY one, which has the wireless feature for just the name sake. The wireless signal was good, but the internet was too slow with the motorola modem, I found that the channel in the wireless could not be automatically changed, At&t customer care agents are experts to guide us to change the channels every time ( I almost switched between 1 to 11 all the day), every hour it would go offline. but the wired connection was good. Then I was looking for the wireless router, I have an impression with the Net Gear since my previous cable modem (another internet connection I have at my home), I wanted to give a try with the NetGear Router before cancelling the At&t U-verse. When I connected the NetGear Router, it gave me options 2.5 Ghz and 5 GHz, which you can find both in the wireless, (This option can be enabled using the Genie App). My mobile, TV and Laptop I have connected using the 5 GHz and the less consuming devices I connected using the 2.5 GHz option. The At&t speed is 6 MBPS (I know, the lowest speed in the market, but the highest internet speed that At&t can afford to, they need to install the cables - this is the reply I got when I requested for the highest speed at least more than 12 MBPS) and the router gives me the same speed for all the devices that are connected using the 5 GHz. I am very much satisfied and I now do not have to restart the modem or change the channels manually to get the maximum speed out of it. The Net Gear has the best wireless channel management which checks the nearby wireless channels and change to the perfect and free channel for the best connectivity.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had At&t DSL Internet and I wanted to switch to the cable internet which was provided by the Apartment I stay. So I was bit worried about the modem. They suggested me the Motorola modem, I personally had a bitter experience with the Motorola Wireless modem. So I searched for the reviews and found that this modem is holding a good reviews. As I believed, It works perfect. Both the Wired and Wireless are superb, the reception for the wireless is always high strength signals.
I never had issues with the dropping the signal or lacking the speed even if I connect more than two devices.
I connected the Streaming player (Wired), Smart TV (Wireless) and Playstation 4 (Wireless) and Laptop (Wired). All have the good streaming and both the Wired and Wireless give the same speed, that's awesome. My mobile is also connected in wireless.
The Installation setup and configuration is simple and quick. For all the Cable internet service providers, we can get this modem and get the modem rent off from the monthly bill. Definitely more than worth the money.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Is it compatible with Verizon DSL.

Yes. The Router is basically works with any Ethernet connection. Once you are connected to Verizon using the DSL modem, use the LAN (Yellow) provided with the Net Gear Router to connect the router to the modem. Once connected restart the modem and the router. The further settings you can find in the User Guide and I would suggest to install Net Gear Genie as soon as you are connected to the internet (it will take 5 mins to download and install). Using the Genie App, you can explore more with the advanced options and get the max speed using the dual band technology.
