Yes indeed, this Netgear AX5300 is an Upgrade over the R7000 Router. First, the AX5300 is a Newer Wi-Fi Standard - Wi-Fi 6 (AX) vs Wi-Fi 5 (AC) for the R7000. Second, the Aggregated/Combined Thruput of AX5300 is approx 5300 Megabits (520 Mb/S @2.4-GHz & 4800 Mb/S @ 5.0-GHz). The R7000 has a Combined 1900 Megabits/Second (600 Mb/S @2.4GHz & 1300 Mb/S). Third, the AX5300 utilizes WPA3 Security vs WPA2 for the R7000. I upgraded my Very Reliable 3+ Yr. Old R7000 Router to the AX5300 over a year ago, and havebeen just as happy with this AX5300 in terms of Reliabilty & Coversge, And the Speed Increase for our Wi-Fi 6 Devices has been Great..
