With tri-band functionality, the R8000P Nighthawk X6S AC4000 Wireless Tri-Band Gigabit Router from NETGEAR is capable of supporting connected clients on the single 2.4 GHz frequency or either of the two 5 GHz frequencies. The single 2.4 GHz frequency supports data transfer rates of up to 750 Mbps while the 5 GHz frequencies support data transfer rates of up to 1.625 Gbps to handle bandwidth-intensive tasks such as streaming multimedia content, online gaming, downloading large files, and more. The Nighthawk X6S also supports the 802.11ac Wi-Fi network standard with a total Wi-Fi bandwidth of up to 4000 Mbps. If a wired connection is needed, users can connect Ethernet-enabled devices to any of the four Gigabit Ethernet ports for a reliable wired network connection.
The Nighthawk X6S features MU-MIMO, or Multiple User-Multiple Input, Multiple Output technology, making it easy to connect multiple devices to the router, each with its own dedicated pathway to the network. In addition to MU-MIMO technology, the Nighthawk X6S also supports cloud storage functionality. Simply connect a compatible USB hard drive to the router’s USB port and access your files using the ReadyCLOUD mobile app or web portal. Managing your network has also been simplified thanks to the NETGEAR genie App which offers a variety of management tools as well as the ability to remotely manage your network when you’re away.

This router is amazing! I have used Netgear nighthawk routers at home and for business I’ve had five devices up to 25 devices. No issues and a lot of signal. I just wish my Internet provider could match what does router is able to provide. To me, there is no other router.

Updated to this router recently and am not seeing much difference from my several year old apple router. Was hoping to see better speeds and more coverage as advertised. Disappointed.

I got 4 of these before finally quitting and accepting my fate that I’m not meant to have reliable internet. I’ve replaced every device in my network and still feel like my internet is so unreliable I’m left unable to do my job (working from home).

Excellent purchase of a router. I love the nighthawk app and extra levels of security including Vulnerability scans that prevent phishing attempts from text messages via phone or email messages.

This router is awesome, I was looking for something that would help make my Rivian over the air updates a smoother and quicker process. This definitely has the range and the speed to do so. 100% EV OTA approved

The R8000P is the best router on the market today. Never have had any problems.

Easily the best Wi-Fi Router I’ve ever owned. I am the IT manager of an engineering & manufacturing company. I have a lot of experience in setting up wifi. This router is a beast! Tri band is the only way I’ll ever go in the future! I have it configured at my home where the 2.4 band handles all the Smarthome Devices that operate at 2.4 only. Then two separate 5GHz. One for laptops, phones, tablets etc. The other I set up as a streaming channel ONLY. All the TVs/Rokus/Firesticks in our home only connect to the Streaming channel, so those devices are never fighting for bandwidth. Currently there are over 30 devices connected at our home at any given time and never a hiccup on FiOS 300/300 service. I particularly love being able to connect to the Router remotely from my office, if it needs to be upgraded, or rebooted. The only problem I’ve had in the past year, was one firmware update that caused one of the 5GHz channels to stop working, and I almost was ready to replace it, after dealing with it for a bit, and then a firmware update came along and resolved the problem. This router is a couple of years old and it never goes down. I can’t recommend this router highly enough! 10/10

We have a 2500sq. foot home. We could never get a tv in our bedroom to connect to Wi-Fi. After installing the new router it connected immediately. We also have Wi-Fi around our entire property now (our home is brick). Would definitely recommend.

I had to change my DNS because the router was causing web pages to not load correctly.

It was pretty easy to set up and the app seems to work fine. Just a key tip; save all information right away – because you will need it later; the only problem I have had is with Comcast losing service and disconnecting.
