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.

I was stepping up from a Netgear 400mps router modem (C-7000) to this one and it will not easily connect to my devices or stay connected and my home is less than 1600 Sq ft.

NETGEAR’s AX6000 Nighthawk Cable Modem comes in strong with the latest WiFi6 technology and increased capacity, making it a no-brainer. It was really easy to unbox, setup, and get connected in a matter of minutes. The mobile app made it really useful from the beginning, setting up my network was a breeze and the useful settings provided a much simpler experience. I recommend this router to anyone with supported ISP’s and the performance they need for a better network experience.

I transferred from a Xifinity Cable Modem/Router to a Netgear CM800 modem/RAX800 router. The setup and activation were readily accomplished by the user manuals and the Nighthawk app. The resulting performance was amazing – I now am getting the internet speeds that I am paying for and excellent coverage throughout my home and devices.

The CAX80 blows away the Modem/Router speeds provided by the cable company.

I got my EAX80 to support outdoor security devices and eliminate dead zones. It’s great and we now have strong connections across our property.

Through the Nighthawk application, I was able to setup my new Netgear router and modem combo within 10 minutes of taking it out the box. After a few brief instructions I was browsing the web with ease!

Netgear CAX80 was easy to install and setup. The ability to add a USB drive is a definite plus (the previous AT

It does what it says it will do. Our internet Wi-Fi speed (which usually taps out at 400mbps anyway and which happens to coincide the speed of our internet) is now at the full 400mbps. I still get a signal out in the woods on our property several hundred yards away.

Only had this for about a week now, but it’s already (just about) living up to it’s price. Which is bad parental control built-in but my kids are older now so it’s not really a huge issue. Huge improvement over the Linksys Velop mesh setup a had.

So far most devices are working fine however I am having disconnect issues on Xbox and Chromecast that I didn’t have before with my C7000. Maybe it will resolve in time but so far everything else has been fine!

Bought this router to replace my old NightHawk router. This new router is amazing and works great with the app. I have slower Internet since I live in the country and this router makes speeds so much faster and user friendly! I love that I can disconnect devices so I can decide which devices get more bandwidth. I would recommend this router to anyone looking for a great router which is easy to set up and use!

This combo is amazing. I bought it to replace a failing AC1750 and this thing is blazing. Along with the added security features and a simple UI, this is the perfect product.

David Lueilwitz (verified owner) –
The router is great. The performance is exceptional. So far there has been no need for me to use things like Wi-Fi extenders. I also like the parental control option because i need to restrict what my kids can access and also monitor their screentime.

It constantly crashes. I can’t see any improvements in my house. I’ll probably send it back

I upgraded and love the extended range! There not a dead spot in my house or 1/2 acre yard! Screaming speed, too!
