Purchased to replace internet provider router. Easy to setup and works great. 15-20 devices connected at any given time. No buffering while streaming or security cameras going offline due to poor connectivity. Strong signal in 2 story 2,500sqft home. Would recommend without hesitation.

Great Device and Great Coverage

Great Device with great range. My whole 1300 sq/ft, single floor unit is covered with full signal. I pay for 800 down and get between 750-800 over Wifi. Be sure to enable the auto assignment of the 2.4/5ghz channels if you dont want to mess with assigning each device in your house to an individual channel.

I bought this product about a year before using it (was testing out another model during a short move). Despite this, the product was easy to set up, easy to connect other electronics, and have had no issues so far. It works fast for what I need it for - TV, video gaming, working from home, and house cleaning products with wi-fi.

I bought this thing in '20 because it was supposed to be, "future proof," and it certainly has lived up to that promise. It really pursed me off when I bought it for $300, then saw it on a Black Friday sale for $149 two months later, though. That's what you get for being too thirsty for the latest tech, I guess. At the end of the day, I'd buy it all over again right this minute for $300 even though you can get buy two of them at that price nowadays. It's been that reliable.

Better WiFi

I purchased the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX5400 as an additional router for my home. It was easy to set up. You will need to use the Nighthawk app to do so. I liked that I didn't have any real issues so far. It offers a nice steady wifi signal throughout my home. It works well with my older model Night Hawk router as well. The attenas were easy to attach and the box includes the power cord and an Ethernet cable. So far I've been happy with it. It's been able to handle streaming devices and smartphones with ease.

Was a easy setup when using old wifi name and password from old router you don't have to reconnect everything to new router(like cameras, tvs, phones). Very fast supports 2g download speed and you can keep updated on your current speeds and how good of a signal you have with the router anywhere in the house or outside.

Easy to set up, even for a tech novice like me. Step by step instructions on the app made it simple to connect devices and set preferences. I like that I can monitor devices and connectivity on the app, even remotely. I highly recommend this product.

We were struggling with streaming speeds on multiple devices. We did not wanting to upgrade our internet, so we purchased the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX5400 WiFi 6 Router (RAX50) to attempt to decrease traffic and increase the speed on multiple devices. Thankfully this router works like a charm! With 6 bands, it’s more than enough to regulate multiple devices without getting congested. Now we all can play games together on our individual devices. Definitely recommend this router!

Excellent router, setup was a breeze and operation is really great. Only problem I had was the antennas were not in the box. Fortunately, the one it replaced fit perfectly and worked okay.

Our Router was recently checked to make certain all is working as new and it is. We subscribed to a one year warranty to ensure that if we should have a problem, we would receive free service to repair it. Thank you for your recent service performance check.

Dissapointing Config Experience
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Does what it's meant to, so three stars I guess.
Setup experience is poor if you know what you're doing and don't want to create yet another account, download an app and have a device that "phones home"
The webUI experience is poor. Even minor config changes take a long time to save. This could be true for the "Nighthawk" app as well, I didn't bother with it.
Ethernet ports do not have activity\link lights.... not a big deal... until it is.
Consider a different product if you value your time.

Feels like a scam

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The router when connected works fine. The problem was that when I tried to set it up it would not connect. When I contacted technical support they told me I needed to purchase their assistance and they had three options for various lengths of time that ran from 250 to 350 dollars. I have never had to purchase assistance to set up a purchase and I feel this was close to a scam and I will never purchase from NETGEAR again or any other company that charges you to set up their product.
