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.

Super easy set up, basically I just plugged it in and it read my settings from Spectrum automagically!!!

Have only had the AX12 for a few weeks but it is a significant upgrade from the one it replaced. No longer do I have to reboot daily or watch my internet speeds slowly decline. Very reliable so far, glad I went this route. Easy to set up as well. Took me 20 minutes end to end to set up.

We have a tri level home with poor wifi. We have tried multiple types of extenders over the years with no luck at all. To be honest I was a little Leary with the price but “oh my goodness!!!” I have never been happier or had better wifi !!! Thank you netgear

Our new Netgear modem/router provides excellent coverage throughout our 3615 sqft two-story home and around its perimeter.

Why would such an expensive modem not allow QoS?! Forget about gaming

I usually love Netgear products, so I bought the best one I could. Our power goes off occasionally. When it returns and the cable comes back on, it takes up to a day and a half for the router to catch up and work again. This happens when the cable is just fine too… I’ve had them come out and check the system. I wish this modem/router worked as reliably as the others I’ve owned.

The range and coverage of the RAX120 has exceeded my expectations where other routers have failed. Finally no more dead zones in my home. Definitely please with this investment. It’s performance is well worth the price.

CAX80 has solved all of my streaming needs. It is not easy to install because of all the security functions. Once installed, it virtually functions on its own. I am pleased to own another NETGEAR product.

I am extremely pleased with the quality, speed, performance, of this equipment. I would and I have recommended this to my friends and family.

I have the RAX-80 router with the app and now that I have the EAX-80 set up for roaming in my network I don’t like how I have to login to each router rather then interfacing them together. I have Cox gigabit internet and it is not good so I won’t blame the routers for continuous dropping. But when they work I get very good speeds.

Replaced my rental cable modem with the Netgear CAX80 and I’ve been happy with it right out of the box. My speedtest has picked up another 10% and my whole home is connecting with no problems including my outside cameras which wasn’t the case before so I’m 100% satisfied.

My New NightHawk AX12/12-Stream AX6000 WiFi Router, Wi-Fi 6 (RAX120) completely surpassed my expectations. Now I no longer experience gaps in WiFI signal around my house and it is providing me with a full strength wifi signal. My only concern is the lack of an instruction manual of some king to asist with installation and set-up. I am especially unfamiliar with the new security system that comes with the NightHawk in terms of determining which sites migh be blocked that I need to interact with and know not to be a thrreat. I will subscribe to the 24/7 support program that comes with the NightHawk. In short, the NH is a superb piece of equipment which I highly recommend. Donald R Ferrell PhD
