Our take on the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router

The Nighthawk AC1900 is a two-in-one: a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem and a dual-band Wi-Fi 5 router in one box. It removes the monthly modem rental and pairs 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz with 1300 Mbps on 5 GHz, plus four Gigabit LAN ports and one USB port for a drive or printer. It suits cable internet households that want one fewer device and a simple setup, but it is not a mesh system and has no external antennas or MIMO, so large or crowded homes will do better with a separate modem and a newer router.

Best forCable internet homes that want to drop the modem rentalSmall to mid-size apartments and housesSimple single-device setupsBuyers who want Gigabit wired ports and a USB share
Pros
  • Modem and router in one box, so one device and one power cable
  • DOCSIS 3.0 modem works with major US cable providers
  • 1300 Mbps on 5 GHz and 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz is enough for streaming and browsing
  • Four Gigabit Ethernet ports plus one USB port
  • Easy guided setup through the Netgear app
Cons
  • Wi-Fi 5 only, no Wi-Fi 6 or 6E
  • No mesh support, so coverage in large homes is limited
  • No external antennas and no MIMO
  • USB port is one only and older USB speeds
  • DOCSIS 3.0 caps you on faster cable tiers

Questions and answers

Does this replace my cable modem and my router?
Yes. It is a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem and a dual-band Wi-Fi 5 router in one unit, so it replaces both. You still need a cable internet plan and a provider that allows your own modem.
Will it work with my cable provider?
It works with most major US cable providers that support DOCSIS 3.0. Check your provider's approved modem list before buying, since some voice and gigabit plans need a newer model.
Is it good enough for gigabit internet?
No. DOCSIS 3.0 and Wi-Fi 5 cap real-world speeds below gigabit. If you pay for a gigabit tier, a DOCSIS 3.1 modem and a Wi-Fi 6 router will serve you better.
How many devices can it handle?
It handles a typical household of phones, laptops, TVs and smart devices fine. Very busy homes with dozens of devices will feel the limits of Wi-Fi 5 and no MIMO.
Does it support mesh?
No. It cannot join a mesh system, so coverage comes from this one unit. For a large home, a separate modem plus a mesh system is the better route.
What is the USB port for?
It lets you share a USB drive or printer across the network. There is only one port, and it is not USB 3.0.
Where is the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router cheapest?
At Netgear, for $99.99, 48% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
