User questions & answers

Question:	Biggest issue seems to dropping of networked devices. When does this usually occur - within first 30 days
Answer:	Within the first 15-30 days or so. It might happend every once in awhile after that like it drops my printer once every 2 or so months now.
Question:	What can I do so it doesn't disconnect as often
Answer:	Well, if you're having the issue I'm having it is not the router but Windows 10! Google it and you will see we aren't alone. If you haven't downloaded Windows 10 and that's not the issue then I would contact Netgear. I uninstalled Windows 10 and am waiting for the next Windows update after 10 to see if they fix the problem. So disappointed in Windows 10!
Question:	Does this have an on/off switch on the device for wireless
Answer:	Yes, it has on/off button.
Question:	i want wifi in my home without a phone line but the hole modum amd router thing confuses me .do i still need a router
Answer:	Yes, you will most definitely need a router. The modem gives your home access to the internet, the router connects to your modem and routes traffic from your home network(wifi) to the internet. This confusion is the reason many internet providers will lease you the equipment and maintain it for you.

Product description

Windstream Arris NVG343BQ (aka NVG343) Kinetic Gateway. Wireless xDSL Premium Modem/WiFi Router - includes power supply, data/phone line cable, & ethernet cable. Compatible with "Enhanced" & "Premium" xDSL internet connections that Windstream offers up to 1Gbps by supporting bonding/bonded pairs (GBOND/VBOND), VDSL/VDSL2, & FTTP (fiber) connections on Windstream's network. It does NOT support the older "Standard" ASDL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ connections. For tech savvy customers it is a great choice to replace the Actiontec T3200 on "Enhanced" & "Premium" connections at a lower price or the Sagemcom F@st 4320 on GBOND & VDSL connections for better wifi connectivity and configuration options. PLEASE NOTE: It is imperative that you take the time to confirm compatibility in order to ensure that your purchase will meet your expectations: Windstream DSL internet connections require specific modems depending on what connection type you have. It can be a bit confusing to determine which modem is right for your connection type. If you are not sure, PLEASE do not buy this before checking with us to determine if this is what you need BEFORE you buy it. For customers with little to no understanding of the technology, the Actiontec T3200 would be a better choice. These were manufactured specifically for Windstream with Windstream firmware to ensure compatibility & activation on their network for the specified connection types and were intended for Windstream service technician installations. It has advanced technical features such as dual band beamforming wifi with multiple internal antennae providing more flexibility in wireless configuration & superior signal strength. Customers with technical knowledge may be successful in self-activation but professional installation is required i nmost cases. If you have a problem establishing a connection, please do not submit a return request before allowing us to help. We often are better able to help than Windstream's tech support agents.

• Windstream firmware for activation on "Enhanced" & "Premium" connections
• Does NOT support the older "Standard" ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ connections
• Dual band 5GHz/2.4GHz 802.11ac wifi with beamforming technology
• Superior wireless connectivity vs the Sagemcom F@st 4320
• Potential alternative to the Actiontec T3200 for about half the price

User questions & answers

Question:	this is not plug and play
Answer:	As I understand the presenter is set up for Power Point. It probably bypasses keyboard commands and communicates direct with Power Point page up and page down. In Word, Visio and Outlook it is page up and page down. It does not work thru arrow keys.
Question:	is this modem for bonded windstream services and does it replace the windstream t3200 modem/router
Answer:	AAA
Question:	Is there a different modem that’s compatible
Answer:	I am not sure what you mean 'work with videos'. I have videos in my keynote presentations frequently and it advances the slides with the videos imported into just fine.
Question:	If I purchase this product, will I continue to pay the $9.99 monthly modem/router rental fee from Windstream
Answer:	I have another model, but it is only active during a PowerPoint presentation. There are keys to advance to the next or previous slide, but they do not act like the Enter key.

Question:	How's the range on the router
Answer:	Yes. It also works for Keynote presentations
Question:	Why do 2 different priced Routers have the same reviews? How is anyone supposed to know which Router you are reviewing
Answer:	This remote Wireless Presenter comes with a USB which is for plugging into a USB port on your laptop. The remote device communicates with the USB device inserted into the computer. The signals travel back and forth between the two and tells whatever software to change slides... I use Microsoft Power Point and it works fine with that...

There's no software to install. When you're through, the receiver stores inside the presenter to make packing up easy."

User questions & answers

Question:	sf home. Will this router work w/no extenders? Also, I have 4 TV's w/Netflix streams. 1 Xbox for online play & 5 Computers. Can it support them
Answer:	It does have Red # 40. I never used ot for that reason.
Question:	this router worth the price or buy the Ac66u or the N900 for save money
Answer:	On the bottle it says distributed by Lucy's Enterprises City of Industry, Ca. It does not say were it is made.
Question:	difference between the 68u and the 68r
Answer:	Someone said 4-5 ounces per cone; I don't use NEARLY that much. I use the 9 oz clear plastic cups. I shape a nice ball of snow taking up most of the cup. I add 2-2.5 ounces of syrup -- usually one ounce of one flavor on one side, and another ounce of another flavor on the other side. Then I drizzle a small amount to finish off the color. If I were selling them, I'd probably need to make 'em bigger, but these are just treats for my kids after dinner...
Question:	range
Answer:	No stopper at all. I pour it into smaller bottles with pour spouts. My customers like this syrup allot.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this easy to set up for someone who isn’t tech savvy? Needed only for doorbell camera for grandparents who don’t have a computer
Answer:	No, it is not. If you have windstream for your service provider you will have to call them.
Question:	Which is the better buy: tp-link ac1900 or ac2600 - and why? (i'm not real hip to routers
Answer:	yes. it is the modem that windstream was installing for bonded connections prior to changing to the less expensive Actiontec T3200 about a year ago.
Question:	How does this archer a9 differ from the archer c
Answer:	Windstream changed to a T-3200 modem when this one was discontinued. Not sure who makes it. My Arris has worked great for me.
Question:	What is the coverage range
Answer:	not if you return the modem you are currently renting to Windstream. call Windstream customer service & notify them that you have your own modem now & request that they send you a modem rental return box. a box with a prepaid shipping label will be mailed to you and once returned, the $9.99 monthly modem rental fee will no longer appear on your invoices. be sure and make a note of the tracking number on the prepaid return label just in case the rental fee still appears on your monthly invoice.

User questions & answers

Question:	can i use proxy server on this
Answer:	Yes without problem
Question:	Why do we want a network router that works with Alexa
Answer:	My TP-Link products, including my Wi-Fi router, operate 'solidly'. I don't use 'Smart Connect', because my devices did not ask for, nor do they deserve, a buffet of choices. I do not use automatic channel, because I am waiting for automatic empty channel. As to Alexa, I bought a new Amazon fire tablet for My Lady, a 70 year old retired school teacher. The included Silk Internet browser is perfectly adequate for installing Chrome. I downloaded about 25 APKs and finally got the correct ones, in the correct order, which lead to upgrades and yada, yada. THAT gave her, her bookmarks and passwords!!! in Chrome. WELL, I cleaned up her Home page by putting just about everything into a folder1. And I left Alexa out there! She has Amazon Music on an Amazon tablet, and the Alexa is sitting on her home page. I am a Kindle and actual books reader and I left that on her home page, although she probably hasn't read a book in half a century. I can put her on Amazon Music on her own pages/playlists/favorites, but alas, my digital library cannot be shared without more work than I am willing to do, and I just side loaded APKs to load Chrome on an Amazon fire tablet. Still, she's going to make Alexa work for her, with timers and alarms and weather and Amazon Music, maybe. As to Alexa and a router, it would be way cool to command, "Alexa, log into my Wi-Fi router, go to Advanced, get to the DHCP Server, and reserve such and such MAC to such and such IP address, and make it active, SAVE, and reboot the router, and btw, Alexa, I am the Pope and you may kiss my ring."
Question:	Can i summon the dark lord using this
Answer:	If the question is whether the dark lord is able to be summoned online (and many would argue that he regularly posts in forums on Tor and on Breitbart), then yes, this router would work for that.
Question:	How many aliens can fit inside this spaceship
Answer:	The answer from TP-Link just sold me on them being my next company. A company that can have fun is a company that will support their products while having fun. Have a top of the line Linksys right now and the last and only firmware update was back in 2017. Never again Linksys. My new router is a TP-Link.
