Customer Ratings & Reviews

Setup was mostly easy and I got really good coverage throughout the house.

I purchased this modem/router combo as it was one of the recommendations for my internet service. The set up was easy, had to make a couple calls and have it registered to my provider. So far it has given me a reliable connection and it's much faster than the one I was renting before. We use a lot of streaming and gaming at our household and have seen no slowdowns or interruptions on our service, despite having up to 4 devices streaming together. I definitely recommend it if your provider supports it.

What a difference a cable modem upgrade makes! I am now able to take full advantage of my broadband speed without having to rent a router from Xfinity! It pays for itself!

just purchased this as there are three gamers in my household with quite a few devices including iPhone’s, iPads, 3 gaming pc‘s, 1 work PC, numerous Laptops and an entire house full oh hue Phillips lights. This was an easy setup and working with spectrum was a breeze to get it up and running too. Gave them my Nighthawk MAC address and a few minutes later done. Accessed the nighthawk app and that was too easy to use. Great product. I may by a mesh accessory just for fun to extend WiFi in the yard at WiFi 6 speeds. Oh and the 2.5Gb port works well on one of the houses PCs.

We consistently get 500+ mbps throughout our 6000 square foot home with this on Cox. Netflix, utube, games on Xbox are the best we have seen. My Nordictrac s22i exercise bike is operating the best it ever has. The speed is not compromised by the number of devices we are using. Devices we have in basement and garage all work perfectly. Who could ask for anything more.

Such an advance over our previous model, should have done it sooner. A really excellent product; easy set-up, NetGear armor, what more can you ask for.

Easy setup, fast, great range. Very happy with it.

Good item as always from netgear. After using the item I was able to get much faster performance and overall was a good purchase. Only down side is the pricing, expensive

This router has worked perfectly so far, and I have no complaints.

Bought this to upgrade from my internet providers supplied modem/router. This Nighthawk router modem combo completely blows what I had out of the water. I have full signal everywhere in my house and have between 600mbps and 850mbps wireless, and close to 900mbps wired.

Works great. very easy to set up. Compatible with XFinity

Starting off, I'm giving 3 stars because there is still A LOT of room for improvement and I think the release of this router was a little premature given the amount of issues that exist. I upgraded from the Netgear C6220 which was all around a good router. It performed well but was starting to get a little outdated for my liking. Initial impression of the CAX80 is very good. The speed is phenomenal and what you would expect from a new gen. WIFI6 works great for the limited devices I have that are capable. I have not yet experienced any of the random drops or buggy connectivity issues that others have mentioned. I will say that Netgear seems to be dropping the ball with firmware updates. I understand that the router is still relatively new however I would expect a little more urgency with the amount of issues coming to light with this router. Current issues I have experienced: 1.) If you have a Samsung TV (more specifically MU series), you will not be able to utilize the Samsung TV PLUS app. All of the other apps and features work fine, but for some reason Samsung TV PLUS does not currently work with the CAX80. 2.) You will not be able to utilize "Wifi Calling" or text messaging over wifi features on your mobile phones with the CAX80. If you are using a messaging app that is NOT reliant mobile data (whatsapp, signal, imessage, etc...) you will not experience any issues. If you are using a native SMS app (samsung messages app) it will not work over wifi. Same with calls. There is currently no fix for this. I would highlight this a major issue. Note: if you live in an area with good mobile signal, you won't even notice this. Overall, its appears somewhat reliable for basic household use with the current firmware release. However, Netgear really needs to step up the support to get this device free of bugs. If you're on the fence like I was, you might want to wait another 6 months or so and see if the firmware issues get resolved.

Decided to Upgrade from the old reliable netgear AC1900. This router/ modem is a beast. No issues and what’s best NetGear made easy to setup using their app instead of a pc, I am very impressed and satisfied so far. Would highly recommend this product

This one works; I have a 2,200 sq. ft. home, two floors, standard cookie cutter home and this thing is on the top floor, middle of the home and it provides excellent coverage throughout my home. I have a family of five and everyone is a heavy Internet user and thsi thing keeps up with everyone! I am pleased with this product.

We had recently upgraded to Xfinity gig speed and had nothing but problems connecting our TVs for streaming and laptops for work. The Nighthawk WiFi 6 router/modem combo solved literally every problem we had, and even improved our speeds on top of what we should be getting. Thankful and satisfied are an understatement!

I was having a lot of internet problems. Mainly using to Manhattan Wi-Fi connections. Slow speeds when uploading and downloading. Comcast being my internet service. I purchased this item and installed using there apt. It was a fast installation. It solved all my problems. My Wi-Fi is the best ever. Great product. A little pricey but well worth it.

This netgear router was easy to set up and was a smooth transition from cable provider to cable modem router very glad I purchased this item

I upgraded from a 6 yr. old router to this and best decision ever. The set up was pretty easy. The only hiccup was it took a while for the firmware upgrade because Spectrum can't see the router/modem because of the outdated firmware. But once it was updated it was all green light. The app that controls the modem/router was easy to use and informative.

I always had beat of the mill routers and decided to stop messing around. I regret nothing. This has been the best router/modem combo I have used. Easy setup, great web interface along with mobile app. Can't wait to continue using it and seeing what I can do.

It's a great router even though it's a tad bit of overkill for me. Eventually, if Xfinity does offer more than Gigabit internet in my area, I'm at least ready. The range is excellent, reaching my Ring cameras at the other side of my house. The setup is pretty easy. Highly recommend!
