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.

This router has been able to deal with all our devices at the same time. It was easy to install and sync with the ISP equipment.

This modem is definitely worth the price. It is up there in terms of prices, but you do pay what you are getting. I would definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone. It makes my internet run at the speed it is supposed to and I am 100% satisfied with it.

My previous router was a few years old. It would have glitchy slow downs. This new router is smooth and much faster. No significant speed loss through the house. I have 17 connected devices and no speed or locking issues. Took minutes to set up from box.

Very easy to setup and fast speeds. Smart TV apps work better…..no buffering. Is able to handle multiple wifi connections without conflicts. Worth the price!

I have had other routers but I am very impressed on the security of this system and how it combines with your phone to let you know your system is being hit with spyware orspam etc. It also tells you which electronic is getting it so you can address the issue. Well worth the money

Updated Modem/Router to resolve internet speed issues. Works great, no more drops or lags.

The device was very easy to set up and took very little time. It is sleek and minimal so it’s not in the way. It’s allowed me to stream ESPN without buffering anymore. Only issue is when we had a storm but its likely the wifi itself not the extender

I work in cybersecurity and I’m very impressed with the Netgear Armor integration for this device. I can’t speak to the longevity as I only set it up this week, but the set up was very smooth through the app and the online portal. I have a 1300sqft townhome and I was running into weak zones in the opposite corner of the lower floor. We were getting 30Mbps max with the ISP BGW210, and with the RAX120 I’m getting 150Mbps minimum in that location. The router itself is pushing 940Mbps up and 935Mbps down, and 500Mbps to my HTC U11 on 5Ghz. Pretty impressive! The paired Bit Defender Total Security is also a great product, and I’m happy to see these two companies come together for a whole-home solution. This seems very minor, but I have the router in my bedroom, so the little switch to turn off the LED indicator lights is genius, thanks for the little things Netgear.

Reaches all levels of floors in my house without the need for a Wi-Fi extender

The setup of the router was straight forward. However, did not see the signal strength as expected with a significant drop off in the floor below. Should have procured a mesh system.

After replacing our older Netgear router the wifi speed and broadcast distance improved dramatically highly recommend this product

After the cable system problem was fixed it took many 5 minutes to setup and get on line. Internet and router speed improved greatly.

Great router wifi combination. Good range solid connections and highly configurable for many applications.
Christian Sipes (verified owner) –
very easy to setup, rougher is extremely fast. matched with my 1gig internet my speed is about 890 megs wired and around 750 megs on wifi. the speed drops off quickly the further you get from the router but I can sustain a good speed in my 1300sf house.

Finally decided to ditch my cable modem and router and this was the best choice for that! Don’t regret the purchase it was easy to install and setup.

Thus unit is by far the fastest, most capable wifi router I’ve ever used. Excellent coverage, and when paired with a mesh router, provides seamless wireless throughout a 6,500 sq ft house.
