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 is a great product, even without a wifi 6 router it still helps extend the wifi across a house. looking forward to getting a wifi 6 router to take full advantage of this product. setup was a breeze.

The 5GHz WiFi tests at about 220Mbps on my Xfinity provider.

Bought two of these to extend to range of a 5G wifi 6 mobile hotspot. Works great, strong signal and nothing has dropped off or have seen any negative times. 5Gz can download at 100 Mbs, 2Gz at 50 Mbs, ping around 40, and jitter around 6. Very much satisfied.

I have had this for 3 months now and it randomly restarts about once a week (at least during waking hours). Outside of that it performs well and has decent range.

I’m in love with this router. The speeds are incredible. I know I’m running about 15-20 devices in the house and I’m not losing any speed.

I have been debating on getting my own modem/router or just keeping one from my ISP. I added up all the money have spent over the last 4 years on just renting the device from the company and it opened my eyes to want to save that money. I knew I’d have to buy a nice reliable device that I know will last so I chose netgear. I have had great experience and have friends who have had great experience with netgear. It had this device for about a week now and I very happy with the speed and coverage! Especially since it is in the basement and I’m still getting 300-400 mbps upstairs! Thank you guys for making a nice quality product!!!

I love this Netgear Nighthawk router. It’s super fast, fully functional and supported by the fantastic Netgear team and app. The app tells me exactly what devices are online WiFi and wired and exactly what’s going on with them. Highly recommend!!

Seems to work great. Picks up a really weak signal

You won’t be disappointed with this unit. The best part is that it is future proof with its WiFi 6. My internet provider is upgrading to 1.2G internet speed which makes this a solid purchase for all my future needs. What’s I like the best is the Netgear Armor Security. It is a piece of mind to know your network will be secured even with cell phones.

Struggled with our cox router for months, finally decided to get something better. Easy to setup, and a huge improvement to our home network.

This very expensive, top of the line modem stopped working less than 5 months after purchase. Netgear claims that they don’t have any in stock at their warehouse so I will have to wait for a replacement modem under the manufacturer warranty. This modem is for a small business; we cannot wait for months for a replacement. Based on this experience, I will never purchase another Netgear product again.

This thing is awesome. Wifi speed is way better on this router than my last one. Setting up the modem was not difficult and it was pretty quick. Netgear is the best!

This router has boosted my connectivity to a whole new level. I already had fast internet but always seemed lacking with the router the company provided. Now the difference is night and day.

Changed providers, got the extender and placed upstairs. It’s working great.

It’s good but the wireless range is not as good as other routers

Massively speeds up WiFi when using multiple devices. Planning to hold onto this for about 5 year with WiFi 6 and DocSys3.1. Makes life easy future proofing
