It says that it covers 2500sqr ft, but my house is only 2000 sqr ft and it barely works downstairs.

I live in a very large stone house. Previous routers could not manage to cover all areas on the main floors let alone the basement. This one does it all. And never blips offline.

Just bought the Nighthawk Ax6 based on a suggestion from our IT friend. We have 4 teens and needed a system to handle our internet use and monitor
Maymie Treutel (verified owner) –
It is a fantastic router that easily handles all the devices in the house; 2 cell phones, a laptop, an iPad, a desktop, thermostat, Directv, all the apps, security system and cameras and an Apple Watch. Now that’s a great router.

The app is great for quick changes, etc. The “basic” ui works for most needs but the “advanced” ui allows very granular control. Very pleased with my purchase.
Evelyn Lubowitz (verified owner) –
This is the best router I have ever had. It has an awesome range and allows more connections that what I’ve been used to. I would definitely recommend! this to a friend
Eli Maggio (verified owner) –
Router worked good for 3 days and then none of the devices would pick it up. The only support is a web link. Can’t get the net.
Karolann Stamm (verified owner) –
My home internet now has the power to cover a caf! At least that’s what we say around here. The difference from my old router to this one is night and day. I never have connection issues now and everything works at record speed! I’ll never use another brand again!

I purchased the Nighthawk AX6 for use in our 3 floor home and even though it is placed in the basement, I get great vertical signal strength. I combined it with Netgear Business Access Points to cover the width of house.

Wi-Fi covers my entire office building With 100 mbs up and down!

Jasen Ullrich (verified owner) –
Easy to setup and monitor all our wireless devices. I really like the mobile app for checking out the network performance.
Meredith Bednar (verified owner) –
Works so much better than my last router and the install/ set up with the app was extremely easy. Thank you
Deonte Hoeger (verified owner) –
I have an older home with plaster walls and the reviews seem to be good so far – better than our older router.
Kaden Balistreri (verified owner) –
I have had fiber optic internet for the past 3 years but never justified the cost to upgrade to a router that would really take advantage of the potential. Now that my wife has been working from home over the last year (thanks Covid) the cost for a new router was finally justified. This router not only boosted my speeds to an average of 500 Mbps up and down but it also reaches every corner of my fairly large house. The old router barely reached the office and now my wife is the one getting annoyed with her coworkers for having crappy internet. Oh how the tables have turned, thanks NETGEAR. Also worth noting that the app makes setup and managing your router a breeze.

We bought the router for our 1.5 story 2500 sq ft home. So far, we have excellent connectivity throughout the house. Definitely recommend!

This router extends coverage I can now use my laptop out on my patio.
Britney Gutkowski (verified owner) –
Very easy to set up and connect. The app makes the installation and set up efficient and quick. And the product works great at boosting the existing signal. It provides consistency to an otherwise inconsistent WiFi connection.
