    I'm very pleased with the router, and set up for basic use was easy, but the help/online instructions for setting up VPN are out of date. I would consider myself "moderately" knowledgeable with admin functions but they really need to publish up to date steps for what needs to be done prior to flipping the switch in the admin menu.

    I was replacing an older modem with the CAX80. From the start, the set-up was very easy with the step-by-step instructions. Once it was up and running, my speed jumped 6 folds! very impressed with this router combo!

    I'm very pleased with this purchase. The Nighthawk AX6000 substantially increased the range and signal strength over my previous router, was simple to set up and provides a useful online monitoring app.

    I got really really tired of cox’s panoramic WiFi box so I went to Best Buy, picked up this router modem combo and hooked it up. The whole process was easy and jeez, The WiFi game changed for me. No more lagging, no more random internet outages and my internet download and upload speed is way faster than I’ve ever had it.

    This thing is amazing. The Wifi speed was well above my expectations. I used the network ports on the back for my PC setup and found no issues with speed there. Very reliable. And the app is pretty cool too.

    This is everything as described in the description, plus more! I originally bought a Arris SB8200 along with a NETGEAR CAX80, but was beyond disappointed in the Arris modem. Besides multiple disconnects at random times, the Arris support diagnosed and told me that there wasn’t anything wrong with the modem. Xfinity runs test and said signal is fine. So after two days of lost work, I returned and bought the Nighthawk. I should have went this route to begin with, but sure am glad I didn’t accept the mediocre results from the previous setup. The return process at Best Buy was painless and simple. Setup of the Nighthawk was streamless and all speed tests are steadily around 1100gbps. Definitely worth the premium price!

    Great cable modem with "meh" dual band WiFi 6

    Beast of a modem! The cable modem feature set is where I find the most value. This is great for smaller to medium size spaces, due to having a dual band versus tri band radio.The mesh wi-fi add-on will cost ya another $250.

    Easy setup, worked immediately with only minor user input. Once you've installed the Nighthawk app, it will perform bandwidth tests give you many other features as well. It comes with Netgear protection for your mobile devices for 1 month free.

    Title: Works as Advertised Description: With some help from a Netgear tech the installation went smoothly. I'm 76 and not very tech savvy. He was polite, patient and professional. Many thanks!
