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.

We have 5 to 15 devices connected in a two story house all the time. The RAX 120 keeps every one running at top speed. The Netgear App makes setup a snap.

It’s just what we needed. We had a net gear router that broke with an update but we had it for about six years so it was time for an upgrade.
Jamison Ernser (verified owner) –
I am not a technical person, but I can say this was the easiest setup app to work with. Usually I have to call for tech support, but Netgear made it so easy for me. Thank you.
Jade Prosacco (verified owner) –
Recently acquired broadband internet for my home and needed a reliable router that could support all our families needs. Was told about this device by a coworker who also had one. Well worth the coin it cost. This thing supports streaming amd gaming. And it just looks super amazing. Love my nighthawk.

Absolutely the best wireless router on the market, period.
Amely Waters (verified owner) –
Awesome Fios router, provides what it is meant to do (range of coverage, speed, and etc.)
Alexis Hane (verified owner) –
So far is working with fast WiFi speeds, eliminated range extender
Eloise Schmeler (verified owner) –
Covers my entire house and property. Easy setup very secure. Well worth the money to get rid of the dead spots in my home and garage.
Vilma Bechtelar (verified owner) –
I decided to upgrade my home network to Wifi 6 and the RAX120 did the job. Now I can support all the devices my wife and 5 kids use for school, work, and play.

Combining with Netgear mesh extender to get whole property coverage, driveway, yard and garage. Grandkids love it.
Emilie Barrows (verified owner) –
I have a 1,700 sqft one floor condo. Excellent signal throughout and with the Cox gigablast service get 900 megabits dL. Have 7-10 devices linked up at any given time and works great.
Cooper Beatty (verified owner) –
Router works really good. My buddy can stream and I can play games all at the same time
Nikita Daugherty (verified owner) –
The great: Router is fast and stable, great set of features and options. Support was able to get my issue straightened out quickly. Documentation needs a little: Router must be initially set up using the “internet” connection, using the Nighthawk mobile app. Once set up, you can go to routerlogin.net to set up the “multigig” connection, switch the connection, restart everything. Would have been nice to know. Most settings worked with routerlogin.net on my desktop, not all. To reset the default wireless channels, modes, names, and update firmware, the website must be accessed through a mobile device – thanks Support! Again, would have been nice to know without a call. Ideally, i would like to do the whole setup from one place, website or app. Set this router up on clear channels and stand back! CM2000 cable modem is a great match.

Fixed my issue with having to many wireless devices connected to one access point which caused devices to drop.
Ross Sipes (verified owner) –
Bought this to upgrade the modem router combination that came with Comcast. This coupled with the CM1200 modem was a major improvement in both speed and wifi connectivity.
Coleman Gerlach (verified owner) –
I had the router for over a month now, and it has performed extremly well. My speeds have been very consistent, and the 2.4ghz coverage is pretty good. Being able to control 3 dofferent networks and manage what device can be active on each network is very nice feature. Overall very satisfied so far
Kiara Batz (verified owner) –
Replaced an older access point that was not working well. This one is fast and was super easy to setup and get running.
Paris Quigley (verified owner) –
Great range and works fantastic but no parental control features
Kacie Hane (verified owner) –
I was looking to upgrade to WIFI 6 and after discovering most of the products we have in our home are WIFI 6 compatible I knew it was time to make the jump! After reading tons of other reviews and tech blogs, I went with this Nighthawk AX11000. This thing is a BEAST and fast as lightening. All of devices are getting almost 400MBS download speeds consistently no matter where I am in my house. The setup was so easy and the Netgear app is just fantastic. A

With easy to follow app loaded in my phone. Replace my old router with NETGEAR Nighthawk in less than 5 minute and my old attached devices function without reconfiguration.
