I have been a NETGEAR customer for decades and am very happy with the performance of my new router. It is a great upgrade and a great value that I wish I had done sooner. Awesome speed thank you!

Douglas Huels (verified owner) –
The setup was easy and uneventful. I have a good signal throughout the house. But there was a glitch on a third day: the router got unresponsive overnight. It came back to senses after I rebooted the device.

Mafalda Bogisich (verified owner) –
I love this router. I can use the (additional cost) parental controls to assign each device a family member or location label. Then I can set up time limits, time outs, and bed times per label. I can go in and pause the internet on each label as well as being able to reward them with more time. It is amazing!
Boyd Marquardt (verified owner) –
Speed of internet as great, but coverage was moderate- didn’t reach entire house.
Adrianna Stoltenberg (verified owner) –
Architecture is consistent and streamlined compared to other like products.

Recently purchase my Blackhawk, and the unit has been up and running with in minutes after receiving it. Extremely happy with it.
Bernard Sanford (verified owner) –
I bought two of the same models and still had the same issue: Whenever I enable QOS, the 5Ghz wifi band constantly disconnects from the internet. Anything connected to the 2.4ghz wifi band or connected by Ethernet does not have this issue.
Jamie Effertz (verified owner) –
A powerful device with so much speed it is unbeatable. No competition! If you need a router, you need Netgear Nighthawk AX6! Not only is it amazing for my current needs with Cable, it has me prepared for blazing fast speeds with Fiber Optics. With all the internet traffic in my home, I cannot think of using anything other than Netgear!
Carrie Sanford (verified owner) –

Brook Weissnat (verified owner) –
The setup for this router is easy to use. The app makes it easy to follow the steps needed to activate. Customizing for your needs is also a breeze.

Upgraded to a Nighthawk AX6 yesterday. My internet is really fast now
Kamren Predovic (verified owner) –
The Netgear Nighthawk 6 was easy to set up and great wifi speed
Gaetano Kunde (verified owner) –
I’m satisfied with the speed. The review comments about the horrible router interface are oh so true. I’ve already initiated a return. I will be looking for another router and staying away from Netgear.
Samara Kuhlman (verified owner) –
Bought this in September 2020 after my old router failed after 5 years. The nighthawk 5G works great. However the 2.4 Ghz network constantly drops and requires a reboot to work again. With a lot of alexa plugs and neat robot vacuumes requiring 2.4, this has become a huge inconvenience.
