Nighthawk WiFi 6 Router (RAX30) - Security Features, 5-Stream Dual-Band Gigabit Router, AX2400 Wireless Speed (Up to 2.4 Gbps), Covers Up to 2,000 sq.ft. and 20 Devices

I needed an access point added to my network. I purchased this item because 1) It would handle the high speed of my internet provider 2) It would broadcast a good signal for coverage that I was trying to cover 3) low cost. I am not a network/tech guy at all. I was able to connect the router to my internet and used the app to update and install it as a modem. Great now I have a 2nd router but I wanted to use it as an access point not as a router. After it was installed as a router easily able to change the settings on my laptop to make it an access point. It was literally a click of one button and the router made all changes needed to make it an access point. The access point (router) was placed in my garage. It has such good coverage that the TV's in my house now connect to the new access point rather than the original router, even though the TV's are much closer to the original router. Overall a great product. It was sold as a used unit but it had everything in it to set up. It was like new. Shipped and received extremely fast. I live in a rural community and I had it within 2 days even though there was a holiday when I ordered it. I couldn't be happier with the business that sold it to me or with the product. Great job everyone!

Great signal over three floors of a 115-year-old house. This was easy to set up, and works great with our fiber optic internet. Once we got it set up I haven't really thought about it since it just works, and the signal is good everywhere in our house including in the Attic.

My old router finally died so I needed to do some research to replace it. After a lot of searching around, I came up with this router, which seemed to be very capable for a relatively inexpensive price. The router came intact without any problems set up, was easy with the provided app. I set mine up as a second separate network from my Internet providers device. I connected it to the cable modem by pre-existing ethernet connection at the side of my old router, then follow the instructions on the app And I was up and running in less than five minutes. I have had no problems, connecting with any of my devices, which include security, cameras, thermostats, laptops, TVs and iPads. My son works from home for a software company has been running his work operation without any difficulties, and we have not experienced any limitations with regard to bandwidth or speed. The range of the router is quite good without any dead spots within my 5000 square-foot home and garage. We even have good signal outside around the pool. I will summarize by saying this is a great router, for the money does what it says, and it’s easy to set up

I recently relocated to a new home and encountered some challenges with my network connectivity. To address this issue, I decided to purchase a router to expand the coverage area of my Wi-Fi network. As someone who is not very familiar with networking and the setup process beyond what my internet provider offered, I found this product to be highly effective and user-friendly. The instructions were clear and straightforward, allowing me to configure it as a wireless bridge successfully. However, I am now interested in exploring the option of setting up my network configuration myself for greater control and customization. I am thankful for this product. I am exploring more products from Netgear.

This router requires me to completely reset all of its settings back to factory defaults and reconfigure everything anytime the router loses power or is turned off. Not only is it the worst router I've ever owned, it's potentially the worst product I've ever purchased. I write software for a living and am able to work through a lot of tech issues...I've tried updating the firmware countless times. Nothing works. It has consumed hours of my life that I will never get back, and it wasn't exactly cheap to begin with. This problem goes beyond just this model as I've experienced similar issues with my Nighthawk at my office, although with that it seems to have been fixed with a firmware update. To make matters worse, when you reset the router settings, you have to actually delete and reinstall the app if you want to set up the connection with your mobile device, otherwise it just gets stuck in a loop of telling you that it can't find your device, failing to grasp that the device isn't there because it's been reset. Everything about this router is awful. I'd like to take this moment to give Netgear a solid shout out on somehow making technology progressively worse...routers 20 years ago were 10x better, easier to set up, easy to manage than anything I've used of theirs in recent years.

Had been using a roughly 8-year old TP Link router. Never had any issues with it, but when we upgraded our internet package I decided it was time to revamp our equipment as well. And whoa, does this thing perform. The app interface is very direct and easy to consume, and seemingly does half the work for you. When we finally connected, I watched our usual double-digit (on a good day) download speed jump to the moon in seconds. It was exhilarating. Watching our internet speed jump by 100s of mbps, screaming at the monitor to see how high it would go, felt like I had put big money on a horse race. Haven't felt a rush like that since the late 80s. On top of it all, the thing just looks mean. The lights, antennae, the sleek angular black body all looks like something out of Transformers. Forget Alexa, now we have a real live Decepticon sitting in our living room. The Nighthawk router dusted off our conception of internet speed with a jolt of modernity. Glad I purchased.
