Capable of throughput up to 6,000 Mb/s, the Nighthawk AX8 AX6000 Wi-Fi Router from Netgear supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), a wireless standard that allows for faster Wi-Fi speeds, more simultaneous upload and download streams, and greater energy efficiency for battery-powered wireless clients than previous Wi-Fi standards.
Equipped with four internal antennas, five 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet LAN port, one 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet WAN port, and a pair of USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, the Wi-Fi 6-enabled Nighthawk AX8 AX6000 supports OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) and multi-user MIMO (Multiple Input and Multiple Output) to deliver faster and more reliable Wi-Fi connections compared to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac). The router also boasts a Smart Connect feature that selects the best Wi-Fi band for your devices, allowing for a single network name for both wireless bands, as well as voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Bought the EAX80 to increase WiFi coverage in my house. The setup via the NightHawk app was straightforward and trouble-free as was upgrading the Extender firmware. End Result – a very, very satisfied customer! Applause

I have tried a bunch of extenders, this one is the best so far.

I bought one without knowing that an extender actually cuts the wifi speed in half. My house probably needs the full powered mesh replacement. I like my Nighthawk router and am not sure it should be replaced. Not a fan of the Nighthawk extender.

Just wanted to say as this router was a real easy set up using the Netgear App, and in minutes transformed my upload and download speeds. No dropouts as yet and my whole family is happy with the performance. Even reaches places in the house that before we could not get a signal. Great product for us so far!

This is the best router I have ever owned. Security features are awesome. I would recommend.
Ida Schmidt (verified owner) –
Works great. Easy to set up, does exactly what I needed it to do. Nice that it does not create a separate network, and devices just grab whichever has the best signal.

I was leasing the the modern/router combo from my provider. Speeds were slow, the wifi would drop, just simply terrible. This device has fixed all of my problems. I can even get access to my internet in my yard now!

Purchased to upgrade the Nighthawk AC1900 to Wifi 6 and there is no disappointment! Still get the speed I was used to with the AC1900, yet my Wifi 6 devices get an extra boost. Best of all the CAX80 will pay for itself in 3 years since I am not renting a modem from the cable company.

This modem has been trouble free and setup was much easier than expected. I used to use a Erros mesh system with Austound Internet and that was a reliable and simple system, in the switch to wifi 6 I found that cost of Erros to be cost prohibitive and the specs for the Nighthawk caught my eye and it was a great switch. Super fast, easy to use, and just as reliable as Erros

Love the security features and very easy to setup. A month in and no complaint with WiFi range or amount of devices connected with guests over.
Karlie Huel (verified owner) –
Doesn’t cover as much space as claimed, but the area it does cover has incredible speed. Never knew internet could go so fast.

Installation instructions are very confusing. Thank God for you tube!! I am hooking up to xfinity cable and Internet. Getting 151 mbps and have extended my range a lot. I still haven’t been able to figure out how to put it into access point mode. Had real problems connecting with the mobile app. For now however I am thankful for the extended range
