Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Netgear Nighthawk AXE3000 is a reliable Wi-Fi 6E network adapter that delivers fast speeds and advanced features. It is easy to set up and use, has a modern design, and excellent performance. However, the range may be limited, and it is a bit pricier than some competitors. Overall, the Nighthawk AXE3000 is a solid choice for anyone looking for a powerful and feature-packed Wi-Fi 6E adapter.

I was in need of a wifi adapter for my older desktop build (doesn’t have a built in wifi card) as it is located on the 2nd floor and the router is positioned downstairs. I didn’t want to purchase an extender or mesh router and I wasn’t about to run 100ft of ethernet cable to it, so I made a decision to try my luck with this adapter, read the reviews here on best buy and other sources. Honestly I have no complaints for my basic needs. From streaming to basic web browsing, and the occasional playing games online example: Apex Legends and CS2 to name a few. They make it easy to install the drivers needed to run on your pc. Im glad I made this purchase, and would recommend this purchase to anyone in need of an adpater, or in need of an upgrade to their wifi connect on a older device.

My previous Wi-fi receiver was a cheap $30 USB thumb drive that cut out connection frequently, don't think it was strong enough to pick up signals while attached to my PC underneath my desk. With the Netgear Nighthawk AXE3000, my connection never drops, and it can literally pick up twice as many wifi signals around my Neighborhood! I also use it so that I can plug in my Work PC to my Home PC to piggyback off the Wifi connection, works great!

I bought it because I needed it for my Linux system and the driver is in the latest Linux kernel. In other words, it works out of the box on Linux (Ubuntu and Fedora) without having to install the driver. (Linux drivers are usually not provided by the network card makers.) Other than that, it works on Windows too (after installing the driver from the enclosed USB stick). Speed is OK, 350 Mbps on my home wifi, on both Windows and Linux. In exactly the same location, my MacBook Pro gets close to 400 Mbps. 4 stars instead of 5 because of it's proven that speed did not hit the max allowed by the wifi network.

The internal network card was dropping the wi-fi connection a lot. I thought of replacing the card...again, but then I thought why not try an external adapter. My biggest concern was speed. Will I lose speed? Not with the NIghthawk AXE3000. I didn't lose any speed and more important no more dropped connections. This network adapter is simply awesome. The stand and cable also provide for optimal placement.

It brought the necessary software in an additional USB drive, making it seamless to install on an old Windows 10 PC that had no network connectivity. Once connected the installation was plug and play. I was online within minutes of connecting the adapter. Connectivity is fast, resulting in the expected Internet speed of my house wireless network.

Flawless connection to my internet, hooked it up to my PC and it runs amazing now.

Has great reach, easy to plug in and use. Small and compact....

Worked very well with my computer, assisted with some ping issues, but I believe I have the right technology and it’s just the service around me that’s become the issue.

If you're having issues, try updating the motherboard bios. I had issues with connectivity for months and resisted writing a bad review, i tried everything. Now my speeds are faster than ever. I blame windows 11 lol

connects easy, setup was simple comes with a USB drive to install software or instructions to go on website to download. antenna goes through walls easier than installed card.

Currently staying in an extended stay. I have a gaming desktop and I love running a few games of apex or star citizen after a long day of work. The wifi is horrible but this device saved me from boredom. I have no lag whatsoever when playing apex legends! Star citizen is a bit complicated due to the game being in testing so can’t fault this device for that but overall I am EXTREMELY happy with this purchase. Set up was super easy and I was gaming right away after a driver install.

Honestly it made a huge difference to my PC, compared to my internal wifi adapter this one almost tripled my speed and connectivity. It’s not too expensive on price and greatly boosted my gaming.

Really good and fast adapter. Strong signal, i can use it across my house! Only issue was at the beginning when first used it would start lagging and i would have to unplug and reset it pretty much. Overall good item but the lag issue can suck if you get it.

Important-You will need to download software for this to work. I did not realize this when i purchased it. I purchased this for a new computer i built but didnt have access to ethernet, i was able to take my pc somewhere to install windows and then this software. Ive had this for about a month and a half and its very few times I don’t immediately connect to my wifi network. Ive had to unplug and plug it back in only a handful of times and im really pleased with the product.

Works great! I use it on my PC and it was easy to connect and setup, would buy again!

Easy to install, simply plug into computer and you're ready to roll. Works fabulously in the back bedroom two rooms away (about 100ft) from the internet modem it is connected to.

No lie, this thing has doubled my computer’s internet speed. It’s more reliable than my last adapter, more compact, and overall more impressive.

My laptop has been having issues with it's internal Internet driver so I bought this in hopes that it'll improve my Internet connection for games. The first day I installed it I did some speed tests which improved slightly vs what I was getting before my issues started appearing. My ping in games have gone down a little but not a lot. Overall it does the job and I'm no longer getting lag spikes so I'm happy with my purchase.

Excellent product. Solved a long standing issue with my wife's often losing her WIFI connection. Has not happened since.
