Great modem/router combo. Works well with my home, with 8+devices connected at all times. A little difficult to setup on the app, but we figured it out.

Working great for our home. Signal strength is excellent on the 2nd floor and basement. We have it installed on the first floor. One thing to note is that it will not work with Xfinity Wireless Cable Boxes. We just experienced this recently. But this supplement this we have smart tvs and installed the Xfinity Stream app and have purchased Roku for faster response with our lower end smart tvs.

First time owning a modem/router. Used to own separate machines. Transmission is a bit quicker. Now I have control over devices in the household. Love the option to choose either the 2.4 or 5 GHz for a device. Future proof

Glad I didn’t review this earlier 18 months into the purchase and died a electronic death , No extended warranty, and out of manufacturer warranty. Buyer beware really do not buy without that geek squad warranty. Talking to NetGear to see if they will do me right by helping replace or repair it since geek squad doesn’t do repairs on this product. If they don’t they just lost a loyal customer for the rest of my life I’M So Disappointed in this product!!!!!’

I bought this on 5-10-21 for $537 with tax and it stopped working 6-26-22 just over a year and it stops. Not a good product. Netgear nor Best Buy would do anything about it. I will not buy another netgear product or shop at Best Buy. This should last longer then a year.

This Modem/Router combo is a beast! It handles Docis 3.0 or 3.1 and items on the 2.4 ghz or 5G bandwidth. Add in the elite Armor Protection powered by Bitdefender and you have a high speed network that can handle a major smart home. Be sure to get cables that provide the elite speed this can provide to the best high end TV’s, Accessories, etc. It has a very strong WiFi signal that easily handles a very large two story home through many walls.

I’m gonna review this product anyway, even though I don’t really need the 500 bucks but if you feel like you wanna send it to me great I have purchased this Nighthawk router before in the older versions and I love them. I love the app and I love the ability to go into the Web GUI and do the things that I need to do. It’s really slick. The speed is awesome. I replaced a Comcast X7 cable modem. That was slow as crap. Let me tell you I was extremely dissatisfied and I owned that modem out right. And to replace it would have meant to lease a new from Comcast. As you guessed buying A Nighthawk from Netgear was a no brainer. That said. The coverage is not as great as the older models I used. Speed does drop off faster than you’d think in a 1000 up 1000 down sq foot home. However this matters not to the causal user and non smart home owner. But I like to game and this could be problematic if I was not wired with Ethernet. Also I like my home smart. And being wired is not easy in most older home. However I have every room wired except to say most smart products are wireless. So anyone who game is going to be hard wired. Period! But for smart home users you’re going to need a great WIFI SIGNAL. PERIOD! As for the signal and speed drops at other end of the house is common experience for most modern WiFi users. My experience is 1.2gig by the modern with or without wired connections. And about 50-75gig WITHOUT extender at other side of my home. I don’t feel the need to complain about it much. Except to say I solved this problem by purchasing EAX15 extender from Netgear. And I Went from 75 down to about 300gig down and for some reason 40gig up which is about the same as being right by the Night hawk CAX80 As for needing the extender, I would guess the powers at Netgear intended me to fall headfirst right into this decision. Regardless of my WiFi needs. Because why create extenders at all. Right? In the end. This is high end purchase and I only do high end. Though it Would have been nice not have spent extra on an extender. But my house runs on a lot of WiFi 6 at 2.4ghz and 5ghz frequency. I.e., cameras, smart light, smart switches, smart blinds, smart doors, Alexa, media devices, phones and tablets. With 65 WiFi signal in all plus the wire stuff and the Netgear Night hawk CAX80 plus EAX15 extender handles them all extremely

A Game-Changing Wi-Fi and Modem NETGEAR Nighthawk
Posted .

I recently upgraded my home network with the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX6000 Wi-Fi 6 Router with DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem, and it has been amazing! This device offers lightning-fast internet, easy setup, and a sleek design. Here's my review in simpler terms:
The Nighthawk AX6000 looks great and provides excellent coverage with its antennas. It has plenty of ports for connecting devices, and the built-in modem saves space. The Wi-Fi 6 technology delivers super-fast speeds, making streaming, gaming, and video calls a breeze. It handles multiple devices without any slowdowns.
Setting up the router was a piece of cake, thanks to the included instructions and the mobile app. The app guided me through the process, and the user interface was simple to understand. I liked the advanced features like parental controls and quality of service settings. Plus, I could control the router using voice commands with popular voice assistants.
Security is essential, and the Nighthawk AX6000 has it covered. It supports encryption and automatic updates, keeping my network safe. The guest network feature is handy, and it's ready for future Wi-Fi 6 devices, offering improved speed and performance.
There are a couple of downsides, though. The price is a bit high compared to other options, but considering its performance, it's worth it. The router's size might be an issue for small spaces.
In summary, the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX6000 Wi-Fi 6 Router with DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem is a game-changer for home networks. It provides lightning-fast internet, easy setup, and advanced features for customization and security. Despite the higher price and larger size, it's a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to upgrade their internet experience.
