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.

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.

Great router! Xfinity subscriber 300mbps plan. 2.000 sq house. I was always getting around 200 to 265mbps on 5G wireless on my old set up. Wanted to future proof and after some debating and a lot of online reading I decided to buy the nighthawk AX6000. I was amazed of how easy was to set by using the nighthawk and xfinity app. I connected 14 devices to the router 4 wired and 10 wireless. Coverage is amazing. No drops in signal. Speed test multiple times and they are a steady 300 to 352mbps now. Netgear app is simple and easy to use. It does the job well. Router is very well build and runs very cool.

I have been a loyal Linksys user as long as I have had wifi. I still highly recommend the brand. But this was the only unit I found that met all the high end specs I was looking for at the time and it has lived up to my every expectation. The range reaches farther then anything I have previously owned. The newer technology also has given me faster performance and, thus far, reliable coverage. The user interface and settings are pretty intuitive and easy to navigate. I highly recommend the product if you are in need of high performance with the latest technology.

Sales People Aren't Trained Enough

The product is great. Customer service was horrible. I came to the Towson store expecting to trade in my old networking equipment and get 15% off a new router, in addition to using my rewards certificates. Salesperson told me advertisement was wrong and I could not trade in old equipment. He even asked 2 other people before I went through with the purchase. I went back to my car and found the advertisement and went back in to ask why they did not honor the trade-in when it clearly stated that my equipment was eligible. This time I was told that my salesperson was wrong & that yes, I could trade it in and get the 15% coupon. He voided the sale, applied the 15% coupon, rang me up again and then told me that unfortunately, I could no longer use the rewards certificates because I now had to wait 2 weeks for them to post back to my account. At this point I had already given them my old router and modem and had no choice but to keep the new one because otherwise I would have ended up with no router at all and I needed internet at home. This is not only ridiculous but simply unacceptable. The "customer service" employee actually told me that the salesperson "doesn't know about how to handle these trade-in deals". Sure would have been nice to know the before I dealt with the salesperson! I even specifically asked the salesperson if I needed to do the trade-in before purchasing the new equipment and he said no because they never do trade-ins on routers and told me I was wasting my time. Shoppers should be able to trust that the people working here know about all these things. The product itself works great though,

I recently moved into a new location and my previous equipment was not cutting it no more. I needed something with more power and range, as well as reliability. I usually run with a separate modem and router but saw this gateway and decided to do a bit of research. I am glad I did and even more glad that I bought it to try out. Excellent equipment, its just superior in every way from my previous setup and its doing well for a lot of others out there as well. Modem itself reaches max speed from isp and the wifi also reaches at max speed. Keep in mind that the 2.4GHz caps out at 100mbps regardless if your isp allows for higher speeds. So when using wifi, us the 5Ghz so you can reach your higher speeds. I am across the house connected to the 5Ghz and I am hiting max speeds, feels like I am plugged in via ethernet cable. The Nighthawk is great for setup, monitoring, traffic, guest-setup, etc. If you were to a modem and router that is equivalent to this next gen networking/wifi 6 equipment. You would be spending at the very least double or more of the cost of this equipment. Oh and don't worry if your current devices don't have wifi 6 themselves, the wifi 6 on this has a built in backwards compatibility for the previous wifi tech and it works very well with it. I would definitely recommend for any home users for; work from home, media, gaming, school, etc. This thing is a beast.
