Description
Boost the speed and efficiency of your home Wi-Fi network with the Nighthawk AX12 12-Stream Wi-Fi 6 Router from Netgear. Equipped with eight internal antennas and capable of up to 6 Gb/s of total Wi-Fi throughout, this dual-band router supports the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless standard. Among the benefits of Wi-Fi 6 are multi-user MIMO support, which allows for multiple simultaneous data streams; OFDMA (orthogonal frequency division multiple access) support, which helps to enhance efficiency and reduce latency; and target wake time (TWT), which helps to optimize the battery life of connected mobile devices.
The Nighthawk AX12 comes equipped with four Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, a Gigabit Ethernet LAN port, and a 5 Gb/s Ethernet port that allows for multi-gigabit wired connections. Two USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports let you share printers and storage devices, while WPA3 encryption helps to enhance security.

Add armor protection for added security and this seems to be a great package. Have seen many blocks from multiple types of attacks.

We purchased this router after constantly having drop issues on our WIFI at home. We had a cable modem/router combo. Once I added this router all our problems went away. We have a 4000 sq ft. house and this router easily covers all parts of it. Our speed is consistently at the maximum our cable service provides. I highly recommend this router.

I was use AX12 to replace my Netgear 7800 , the signal more better and speed is very good, all device can access to network with high speed.
Tillman Boyle (verified owner) –
WiFi 6 is seriously the best thing I’ve seen happen for WiFi technology. The fact that I can be outside in the street and still get a two bar signal blows my mind!! Highly recommend this
Jarrett O’Reilly (verified owner) –
We now can get wireless throughout our entire house. Much better than the one offered by Xfinity.

I was looking to upgrade the WiFi in my home. With so many devices my network was suffering and as soon as I connected the Nighthawk Rax200, all my problems went away. Speedy connection! Me and all my devices are happy again.
Jameson White (verified owner) –
This did not do any better of a job than my Xfinity Cable Modem/Router. Not better coverage, no better speeds and the Netgear app only does certain things. All in all for the price, just not worth it!!!!!!!
Olga Leuschke (verified owner) –
Easy setup. My internet speed quadrupled. Highly recommended!

Loving my Netgear Nighthawk AX12/12-Stream AX6000 WiFi Router, Wi-Fi 6 (RAX120). It’s very fast, responsive and setup was a breeze! The app is great and makes it easy to manage the device! Great job NETGEAR and keep up the great work!

Handles all the extra traffic from WFH and SFH (school from home) so much better than my R8500. Better connection with my mesh extender in a 2 story house. No complaints all around
Kaycee Windler (verified owner) –
This is the best router I have ever used. Ease of set up. Does all it says and more. You can give it the same name as your old router, same password and don’t have to adjust your devices!
Anahi Labadie (verified owner) –
I have had a lot of router though out the years but this was by far the easiest one that I have ever set up and it has great range. I get WiFi in my shop now and it is about 300 feet away from the house.
Adaline Ferry (verified owner) –
Just wanted to say as this router was a real easy set up using the Netgear App, and in minutes transformed my upload and download speeds. No dropouts as yet and my whole family is happy with the performance. Even reaches places in the house that before we could not get a signal. Great product for us so far!
Richmond Casper (verified owner) –
High powered and provides wifi coverage to my entire home without boosters.
Freida Cronin (verified owner) –
From opening the box, to downloading the app to modem and router hookup to finishing setup. Personalize your settings, name devices, check speeds at different ranges. This is an Wonderful device, with AMAZING setup! Oh yeah, router works great too!!

Bought the ax6000 thinking I was upgrading my Wi-Fi from the standard spectrum router. Wi-Fi signal increased over the house but the nighthawk starts dropping internet throughout the day and we have to reboot it 2-3 times a day to use internet. Most inconvenient Wi-Fi I’ve ever had. Seems like the fan in our nighthawk might be bad, not turning on. Shouldn’t have to spend so much on a router that doesn’t perform
Monty Turcotte (verified owner) –
Best router I’ve ever own good speed and range and not to pricey either very affordable. This router puts out very good range so there’s no drop in the speed.
Grayce Beier (verified owner) –
This replaced 2 Netgear routers with separate SSIDs for 2.4
Danyka Friesen (verified owner) –
Very easy to setup and fast speeds. Smart TV apps work better…..no buffering. Is able to handle multiple wifi connections without conflicts. Worth the price!
Austin Jacobs (verified owner) –
Better than advertised. Handles all my connections.
