- Network
- Band Technology: Tri (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Number Of Connected Devices: 40
- Number of Antennas: 5
- Frequency Band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 6 (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: AX, AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
- Wi-Fi Range: 6750 square feet (The device will provide a Wi-Fi connection to this approximate area.)
- Input/Output Technology: MU-MIMO (Multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple Output) (Generally, multiple-input multiple-output communication technologies allow for more signals to be transmitted at a single time, which can improve the device's overall performance.)
- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 2 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home. Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)

Product Manuals
A: The mesh system will extend your current router coverage through your house/condo/apt. You’ll plug run an Ethernet cable (included) from your current router to the nighthawk router, and then set up the 2 satellites. I just moved into a condo about a month ago and picked up the nighthawk mesh system because my condo is very long with concrete walls. Prior to installing the mesh system I was not getting a signal at all on the far end of my condo. After installing, I am getting very good results. I have gig service coming into my unit and average about 923mbps on all three mesh routers. I’ve been extremely happy with the results. He sure to read the instructions and make the satellites are in range of each other. Pretty simple to set up as well. Hope that helps a little.
A: Wireless inbound- the satellites connect to the base via WiFi- the two ports allow you to connect to the satellite via Ethernet cable
A: I would not hesitate to place one outside, as long as it was sheltered from the elements. They do require a plug-in for power, but that is it.
Q: Does this provide you with wifi or do you need an existing service?
A: It will provide a very good WiFi network in your house. You still need an ISP (Internet Service Provider) for external messages, etc.
A: I have large farm house and have the setup you are describing; have strong signal through out the house. Surrounding the outside up to my barns
A: Only via a MAC address you can block all the time or based on a schedule. The subscription allows you to group devices to a user (child) and filter all their devices based on content, on demand, on time limits and reward them with time extensions.
A: Yes it will! I too had the same problem and I set up the router on my main floor, put one satellite in the basement and one satellite on the second floor. I have excellent connectivity and speed on all three floors! I also have the luxury of having ethernet to the second floor so instead of connecting that satellite to the router wirelessly I have it connected direct. The other one in the basement is wireless 5 Mgz and both work equally well. I love this router system and it is priced way better than Orbi. Not paying for a name!
A: The satellite has two ethernet connections so presumably you coud hard wire the satellite to the router. I have a wired LAN in my house but never tried to connect the satellites direcly to the LAN. I always set is up wirelessly. I have several devices wired to the satellites and the connections work fine (several of the devices are hard-wire only). But when you power up the satellite it automatically looks for the router wirelessly so I am not sure if I would know when it was wirelessly connected and when it was using the wired connection. Presumably there is some indication on the router homepage but I haven't looked for it.
