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.

The Netgear Nighthawk Wifi 6 Mesh Range Extender works great.

Have over 40 devices connected with no drops or speed issues. Much better then the three ear old ac router that I upgraded from.

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

I have always liked the quality of the Netgear modems and routers and this has been the best combo I’ve purchased so far. It’s great but now I need my internet provider to improve so I can get what I paid for. It’s communicating within my network as described by the router, but when I try through the internet it is so slow. 400 mbps is what I pay for and I’m lucky to get 25-30 mbps download speed when my WiFi through my Xbox is just shy of 800 mbps. Can’t wait to get another option for cable internet provider.

Highly recommend this extender. Although my router is by a different brand, the set up was super easy. I also liked how it did a speed test right after the set up to let me know if I needed to make changes. Very satisfied.

Purchased to get out from renting equipment from Comcast. More ports more range WiFi 6 router for us working from home now. A must have!

This is a very fast cable modem, and excellent Wi-Fi router. My home Wi-Fi speeds went from the low 300’s to the mid 600’s. I have theoretically 1.2 Gbs download speeds, but no infrastructure to test to that level yet. Wired speeds are around 950, as expected on my network. Once you figure out a couple of the quirks in the system, needing static up addresses reserved in the dhcp rang to allow port forwarding being the big one, the unit has been solid. It will theoretically pay for itself in 2 years, so it needs to last at least that long. My last access point lasted 7 years, hoping for a similar life out of this.

Easy to set up and monitor – yet allows for granular settings. Covers whole house and streaming devices all work smoothly.

This extender works like a charm. No more dead spots in my house. Extra points for the app. It makes it a lot easier to handle devices, guest network and parental control.

Definitely boosted my WiFi…if your looking for a boost and wider range worth the money…I tried several boosters that either made my WiFi worse or no boost at all…made the switch and I may never try a product made by a different company for WiFi needs.

This modem and app is amazing. My old modem needed to be rebooted every week or so and that meant plugging and unplugging waiting for it to reboot and hope it would come back up. I was told about this modem and I ordered it . It took a while to get the modem activated with my service provider but I have been zooming every since.

Very big fan of this router. It was very easy to set up and makes a big difference everyday in terms of speed of internet. Worth every penny.

My last router was a Netgear nighthawk and it was going bad so I’ve decided to upgrade to this one and it was money well spent. I’m a heavy user for internet, I stream for cable and play heavy PS5 games on a daily. This router works phenomenal! If your looking for a new router and want an easy set up go with this one
