De las mejores mejores que le he hecho a mi casa no es estetica. Este premite horarios a los niños si no te gusta que jueguen algo en especifico te permite bloquearlo, sin pagar sus cripciones con el plan basico esta genial y tengo mas de 16 dispositivos conectados en una conexion de 50/50 mbps 4k sin interrupciones en WiFi no lo podia creer y tengo 3 muros atravezados sin problema.

Si no tienes dispositivos compatibles con la frecuencia de 5 GHz no vale la pena comprarlo pues no notaras casi mejoras en la conexión. Aun que es verdad que tiene varias apps, para sacarle mayor provecho, la mayoría son de pago. Si lo que buscas es extender el alcance de tu red actual y/o comprarlo pensando en una mejora a futuro de tu red entonces si vale la pena.

there’s a lot of confusion out there with the r6700 as netgear has done three different variants of it. so as of writing, here are the specs of the three versions:
r6700v1:
chipset: broadcom
cpu: bcm4709a0 – 1ghz dual core – arm cortex-a9
wifi adapter #1: bcm4360 – an+ac
wifi adapter #2: bcm4360 – bgn
ethernet: bcm4709a0
switch: bcm4709a0 – 10/100/1000
flash storage: 128mb – samsung k9f1g08u0d
memory: 256mb – samsung k4b2g1646e-bck0
manufacter: china
r6700v2:
chipset: mediatek
cpu: mt7621at – 880mhz dual core – mips based
wifi adapter #1: mt7615n – an+ac
wifi adapter #2: mt7615n – bgn
ethernet: mt7621at
switch: mt7621at – 10/100/1000
flash storage: 128mb – macronix mx30uf1g18ac-ti
memory: 256mb – nanya nt5cc128m16ip-di
manufacter: china
r6700v3:
chipset: broadcom
cpu: bcm4708c0 – 1ghz dual core – arm cortex-a9
wifi adapter #1: bcm4360 – an+ac
wifi adapter #2: bcm4331 – bgn
ethernet: bcm4708c0
switch: bcm4708c0 – 10/100/1000
flash storage: 128mb – spansion s34ml01g200tfi00
memory: 256mb – samsung k4b2g1646f-bck0
manufacter: Vietnam
r6700v2 was a step down in performance. mediatek mips based 880mhz was not only slower than the arm cortex-a9 based 1ghz processor by frequency terms, but also by clock for clock single threaded performance as well. the broadcom chipset is also more stable and feature rich than mediatek’s. luckily in the same year as the release of the v2, netgear released v3 which brought back the broadcom chipset and arm based processor. but there are still a lot of v2 units still out there on store shelves. I purchased mine back in sept. 18′ and received a version 3 but there is still a chance of getting v2. if you walk into a brick and motor store the easiest way to tell is that the v2 box just lists “dual core” while v1 and v3 lists “1ghz dual core.”
overall I love my v3 r6700. been rock solid stable. has all the features you want without the bloat. interface is simple to use. also supports dd-wrt which v2 does not.

When I moved in with my wife, she brought with her a router that was better than mine, so we kept hers. After a while, more and more of our house became smarter. Smart devices were chatting across our house more and more every month. So I decided to upgrade to a
TP-Link Router
. I grew to regret that mistake every day over the course of a month.
Over the course of the next month, the smart devices grew angry. They couldn’t chat freely and with reckless abandon. Sometimes they wouldn’t ever hear each other. The Chromecast cried in solace. The smart lightbulbs faded to dark. Our guests grew angry with our unreliable network as Game of Thrones struggled to stream. We lost friends. Made enemies. At a certain point we decided enough is enough: it is time to throw more money at this problem.
That’s how we ended up with this spaceship. I spent twenty minutes going through all the advanced settings to make sure it was set up well enough to satisfy my inner geek, then I unleashed it upon the internet. Game of Thrones streamed quickly. Netflix couldn’t feed my router fast enough. My smart devices snapped to attention. The Chromecast wept, this time with tears of joy.
I am a hero. And all it took was a lot of money.

Es un buen router de categoría intermedia. Desempeña excelente todas sus funciones, buen alcance y buena velocidad (400mbps en promedio por Wifi). Doble banda 2.4 y 5 Ghz. Ademas soporta una buena cantidad de dispositivos conectactos vía inalambrica. Puede exprimir la velocidad de las conexiones de fibra (menores a 400mbps).
Ademas ofrece la capacidad de instalar el firmware DDRT, este firmware ofrece capacidad de personalización extrema. (También es muy fácil regresar al Firmware de fabrica).
El único punto en contra es que al configurar un cliente VPN por openvpn la máxima velocidad alcanzada es de 45mbps. Esto se debe a que el proceso de cifrado lo hace el procesador del router y no le alcanza para poder realizar el proceso mas rápido, degradando la velocidad. En mi caso con una velocidad de 200mbps solo podía obtener 45mbps.
En resumen: Un excelente router para usuarios normales. Un buen router para usuarios avanzados. No lo recomiendo como un RouterVPN.

Amplía el rango del internet en la casa y mejora su velocidad (antes mi conexión era más rápida en la sala que en mi recámara, ahora es igual).
Antes de instalar el router no podía, por ejemplo, ver clips en youtube, descargar/subir archivos y navegar al mismo tiempo. Ahora sí puedo, sin haber tenido que contratar un internet más caro con el proveedor. También ayuda a que varios aparatos estén conectados al mismo tiempo sin que le baje la velocidad a ninguno.
La instalación no fue tan fácil como dice la guía, pero nada que no pudiera resolver con google y prendiendo/apagando el módem y el router.
Una vez instalado, todo funciona de maravilla. Yo buscaba mejorar mi velocidad de internet y eso logré.

La descripción es muy precisa, el aparato funciona perfectamente, y el unico inconveniente que tuve que fue de desconección, fue atendido de forma inmediata, simple y adecuada, si lo recomiendo mucho.

In all honesty, this is certainly a capable router and will be a good fit for many. It will provide fantastic speeds and will be a nice upgrade for older routers not capable of keeping up with the increasing internet speeds provided today by most ISPs.
Unfortunately, Netgear decided to dramatically change the internal components and then still sell it under the same name (R6700). With that said, Amazon has a little product alert indicating either R6700 or R6700v2. Well, they are shipping the R6700v2 which does not match some of the specifications shown on this page (in particular the CPU speed).
I know because after receiving a router that did not match, they offered to replace it and send the first version of the router (the one with the higher clock speeds as indicated on the actual product details) and ended up receiving the same thing (another V2).
I will say that for those interested in a router that will not be flashed with custom software or that will not use other more advanced functions a router can provide, this is no problem. For those of us that know the hardware and know what we are expecting, that is a problem.
I have it a 3 star because any company that makes an original version with better specs and then turns around and significantly changes this without changing the model number and making minor modifications on the box (see amazon’s own photos – both boxes are pictured) simply does not deserve my trust. Speaking of ratings, many of the ratings you see here are lumped up with other Netgear products and also apply to the original more capable version.
I encourage you do your research and check reviews from different sources. This way, you will not be disappointed with the V2 that you will receive. I hope this help you make your decision!
