With the Nighthawk AX6 AX5400, you’ll have the wireless bandwidth you need to stream 4K video, video chat, and play online games. Its four high-performance antennas use Beamforming to help ensure strong connections and long range, making it ideal for medium to large homes.

Connect an external storage drive to the available USB 3.0 Type-A port to back up and share data locally across your network. The Nighthawk AX6 AX5400 sets up quickly through the Nighthawk mobile app, and you can issue voice commands to the router through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Your network is secured with both wireless encryption and the Netgear Armor multi-layered cybersecurity system, which protects devices against viruses, malware, and other online threats.

We are so pleased to add this unit to our internet system. Everything is so fast and no fuss
Meaghan Hudson (verified owner) –
This router has solved our buffering and dropout problems. It is fast and was easy to set up using the nighthawk app. Steaming on 2 or 3 devices at a time os great. We were having problems with 1 device sreaming with our old router. Very happy with this router
Cyril Rogahn (verified owner) –
Installed with new Netgear modem looking for improved speed and range. the speed improved, but the range is a let down based on the numbers I saw while researching my up graded WiFi network.
Charity Little (verified owner) –
The RAX 50 is super fast my last one is still good I just wanted a upgrade so far no buffering I love it…
Katrina Lowe (verified owner) –
Router is aesthetically pleasing and handles coverage around the house without effort. Netgear Nighthawk app is easy to use and provides a lot of functionality. Highly recommended this router to anyone!
Rosalinda Hackett (verified owner) –
This router is very powerful and has exceeded my expectations. My signal and download speed is excellent. I will recommend this to my friends.
Raymond Buckridge (verified owner) –
Easy to set up the basic functionality. There needs to be better guidance (or default setup) to get the best possible security. Provide additional setup procedures for advanced security.

For forever I had weirdly bad internet even after paying the ISP extra for higher speeds. Oddly enough, researching the issue did not tell me it was the router I had, that was until a hired tech told us that this might be the issue. He recommended Netgear so I gave it a try. We have been unlucky in the past with certain tech stuff but my fears were assuaged as it was plug and play straight away and the issue was resolved, I am quite satisfied. I am still in my first month with the product but so far it is great and I hope it continues to perform well into the future.

I live in the country where there is supposedly no such thing as fast internet, this helps. Set up was tricky and I had to call for help but the people that helped were nice.

Been a Netgear customer for years. Finally got Gigabit Fast Internet and wanted nothing but Netgear hardware.
Humberto Monahan (verified owner) –
We got this unit to replace an older Netgear router. Installation was easy enough for a person with a computer background. A novice may have issues. Range is much better than our old unit.
Caterina Kuhic (verified owner) –
I received this product for free! This is one of the best routers I have actually used. Previously I was using a plume mesh wi-fi system and even though it provided decently high speeds and good protection for a network the Netgear router with Wi-Fi 6 is been performing way better than the plume system!
Drake O’Conner (verified owner) –
My nighthawk gives me fast constant service that I can count on always.
Raymond Wilderman (verified owner) –
Took only minutes to get the nighthawk set up and ready to go. Very user friendly.
Michele Altenwerth (verified owner) –
I have had for a week and so far it has been the best one yet. I hope it will continue to do what it is doing
Liliane Jacobi (verified owner) –
Switched from my old router that my internet service gave to this new one. It’s almost like having an Ethernet cable connected to all my devices surrounding my whole house. Definitely recommend to everything that needs good bandwidth and coverage at high speeds!
Ethyl Conroy (verified owner) –
Easy to setup. Easy to configure. Quick speeds even with multiple devices running at a time. Would purchase again. Only thing is, wish it was a little cheaper.
Tommie Hamill (verified owner) –
For a domestic use, good range, easy to set up with the app, security is good, easy to know what is connect on your wifi, parent controls is the best feature,
Luciano Quigley (verified owner) –
I had an old Netgear router that didn’t fit the capabilities I needed for my house so after limping that along for 2 years, I finally upgraded and I couldn’t be happier! I am getting faster speeds than I am even supposed to get from my provider, I have seamless internet inside my 2,400 sq ft home and backyard, no more buffering while streaming, and we can finally game in the house. I highly recommend this product!

Had some issues with connectivity, other than that pretty good.
