Works great getting all our devices high speed internet in our 2,200 square foot house

We bought this router for the range and the way it would disperse the signals through all the devices that were connected. Also the range of the Nighthawk is supposed to be almost 2-3 times bigger than the router from Charter. So far it hasn’t changed from Charter. Our cell phones doesn’t even download feeds when we are on wifi. We are in the fence about this product and will most likely be returning this product.

This router is a beast! I replaced an older Netgear R6400 as my ground level router and in my basement had a Nighthawk R7000P. It used to be that in the basement my devices connected to the R7000P, but this bad boy is so strong that even in the basement my devices connect to this one. Pretty amazing.

It only takes a few minutes to set up , gives you an App to help you ! If I can do it , anyone can.. it’s by far the best product out there for school, gaming, wireless communication to all your TV’s , Alexa products , phones. Get it you won’t regret it !

I have not had any issues with it and it is worth the money I paid for it. I had a Asus and I had to keep rebooting it at least twice a week because it would drop the wifi.

Keeps dropping internet connection. I will be returning it soon.

Upgraded to this router from the AC1750 (R6400) which had been performing poorly. Now I have much better results.
Demetrius Goodwin (verified owner) –
The AX6 was exactly what I was looking for. It is a great blend of fast, reliable and reasonably priced. No complaints so far. Super easy to setup.
Cordie Lehner (verified owner) –
For the most part, it works well and was very easy to set up, but I lose the connection sometimes. It could be the configuration of my house. The signal is good and strong in all rooms other than the minor hiccups of lost connections on occasion.

Replaced an aging Netgear Router and this has been a very easy and rewarding decision!

2.4G Wifi always auto disconnected. Full wifi signal but can’t connect to internet.(I confirmed the internet is working) Need to wait 40 second for a Wifi setup page Each time click “Apply” need to wait at least 1 min during the setup. No label on the antenna about the rear and side Actually my old 3 antenna wifi signal is much better than this. App not included all the web function.
Brenda Mann (verified owner) –
The app made this very easy to install. Good performance so far too.
Dario Schaefer (verified owner) –
We’re not gamers but do quite a bit of streaming. The spinning orb/buffering is thankfully, in the past.
Selena Kshlerin (verified owner) –
The nighthawk router works great throughout our home as it provides a strong signal to all our devices
Josie Feeney (verified owner) –
I bought this unit assuming I’d get better coverage. Setup using all the settings I had previously on older unit. Not getting better coverage at all. In fact, there seems to be an increase in loss of internet connection. Not happy with the setup instructions. still working on setup, will have to call support. SAD.

Does the job. No complaints from my family members. Plus, it looks like it could be a Cylon ship in a Battlestar Galactica reboot.

the app is great, easy to config all the things I need
Vivianne Prohaska (verified owner) –
I wanted to say the system was simple and easy to setup and configure. Had all my devices operational with ease.
Thea Shields (verified owner) –
