Description
Enhance your 802.11ax Wi-Fi coverage by using the Netgear EAX80 Nighthawk AX8 Wi-Fi 6 Dual-Band Wireless Range Extender to create a mesh network. The Nighthawk AX8 has four internal antennas and works with your existing router by using the same network name (SSID), allowing for seamless switching between devices as you move without having to disconnect and reconnect to the wireless network. Compatible devices can reach speeds of up to 1.2 Gb/s using the 2.4 GHz band and 4.8 Gb/s across the 5 GHz band, allowing for reliable high-speed connections for streaming 4K video, playing games, connecting smart home devices, and more throughout your home. OFDMA technology allows for optimized data transmission for up to eight devices at the same time while four-stream MU-MIMO support enables up to four 1 x 1 devices to stream content simultaneously.
For those who haven’t upgraded yet, this range extender supports previous Wi-Fi standards such as 802.11ac. Four Gigabit Ethernet ports are also available to connect wired devices such as smart televisions, computers, and video game consoles. There is also a USB 3.0 port to connect compatible storage drives and share photos, videos, documents, and other files across the network. Downloading the Nighthawk mobile app allows you to configure the Nighthawk AX8’s settings.

Just received my Nighthawk WiFi6 Mesh Range Extender and I am completely satisfied! Easy to set up and it works like a charm! No more complaints from my NetFlix/Hulu/TikTok/YouTube obsessed teenagers about a “terrible signal in my room!!”
Leon Ferry (verified owner) –
Actually thinking about getting another one for the house. I have gig speed with comcast so I saw a noticeably jump in WiFi speed around the house.

I have been on a long search for the best range extender. I have bought several different devices with the same result, “A weak signal or the range was to short”. After much research and comparisons I went with the nighthawk and must say this is worth every bit you spend on it. It is a tad pricey but if you want the best signal and the most coverage this is the device to purchase. It’s easy to set up, and makes all my devices from phones, laptops, wireless printers, tablets and gaming consoles ultra smooth at a high speed. A must buy!!

This extender is exactly what I needed Router was in the basement and we didn’t get good service upstairs, now we do!!

Janick DuBuque (verified owner) –
The set up was a bit tricky it could be more simple than what it was to set it up. The mesh router sometimes has issues connecting to the main wifi network and its tough to know which network you are connected to once you merge them other than those flaws the unit works pretty well and really great speeds come out of this device range is also very surprising.

Zackary Becker (verified owner) –
I was concerned about using a wireless extender for my home given the number of devices on it, but it’s been able to deliver reliable wifi to every part of the house. Strongly recommend.

Boosted our internet to blazing fast speeds! Worth it!
Terrill Wilderman (verified owner) –
Had my extender for several weeks and now and it is amazing. no dead spots and runs seemlessly with my new Nighthawk EAS80 WiFi 6 router. My download spped have tripled just by swapping out from WiFi 5 hardware. Wow..
Lea Braun (verified owner) –
Not happy with this product. Easy to set up, but didn’t penetrate easily past one floor of my house.
Kari Powlowski (verified owner) –
I chose this extender to use with my Netgear RAX200 router. I attempted to setup using the Netgear Nighthawk app on my iPhone. After three failed attempts with factory resets in beween, I setup using WPS. That worked flawlessly! The extender has been in service for about 10 days. It offers much high speed service where the router signal was reduced.
General Howell (verified owner) –
Works like expected. Great choice if you need internet in more places.
Malcolm Ullrich (verified owner) –
The EAX80 Mesh Range Extender Set Up Was Easy. I connected to my Nighhawk AX 8 Router with ease. Works Great With The Nighthawk App.
Madalyn Johnston (verified owner) –
This added much needed device space and extended the range of my router to the patio and garage. Works great!
Silas McLaughlin (verified owner) –
B & H was the only supplier who had this when I needed to order. It was a day longer than estimated but still arrived quickly. The range on the extender is more than I expected. Don’t even think about it B & H and Netgear you can’t go wrong.

Extremely happy with our purchase of the wi-fi extender. We recently upgraded to AT
Courtney Schulist (verified owner) –
Have used it for two weeks now and it solved my issues immediately, plus I like the app to check internet speed and the devices which are connected.

I had an older Netgear extender and was only able to get maybe 50 Mbps. With my new Netgear Nighthawk, I am consistently getting 150 Mbps, Lighting fast!
