Help to get the most out of my Netgear Nighthawk.

[jinakolis]

My old router is beyond repair and I picked up the Netgear R7000. I've been looking for some help on setting up the router to work well with my chromecast, 2 android phones, 1 android tablet, wii u, 2 laptops, and 1 wired pc. The chromecast video quality hasn't been up to par recently and I can't figure out what settings to change that would improve it.

Make sure any video streaming is on 5ghz. 

How big is your home? 

What are the interior walls made of? 

What speeds do you pay for? 

What firmware is on the router? 

when you say video quality isn't up to par, what actual speed are you getting on the chromecast?
