    When I opened it and installed, I had to reset the router as it was not broadcasting my SSID. Reset did it and it then behaved quite normally. I was hesitant, but I'm glad I installed the app because it is quite informative.

    Great Router, replaced synology (whose attenas got lose and ultimately broke off)- I like that this has nothing like that. Looks great too! Make sure your ISP agent is versed with this router, mine had issues until a senior person helped.

    Nice features, but Wi-Fi was faulty out of the box

    I really liked some of this router's features. I particularly liked the way the antennae were arrayed in two wings instead of multiple uprights. The hardwired internet worked great. But the Wi-Fi bands kept returning "access point temporarily full." We had only a couple of devices attached. There was no way the access points could be full. I contacted Netgear tech support but got a response that someone would get back to me in 24-48 hours. I didn't want to wait that long. Maybe I would have been more patient had I not just returned a Linksys 6E router that wasn't working right. We ended up returning this router in exchange for a TP-Link 6E router that has worked excellently. I'm just sorry that I had to try three routers before finding one that didn't have problems out of the box. Do any of these manufacturers have quality assurance anymore?

    Nighthawk always start working well, but in time they start to lag and a reboot is needed. That's why the 4 star review. Somehow they need to reboot themselves or loses cache or something so they can provide the performance when used the first time.

    We have always had Netgear Nighthawks. Upgraded to this one when on sale. It is good sized, and does up to 40 wifi devices and up to 5 wired devices. Smart enough to decide based on device which band to use 2.4 or 5.0.

    I bought a ASUS router and it was dead on arrival. I returned it and decided to splurge on this one. Great phone app and user experience. I don’t use the 6ghz band yet, but the others are lightning fast with my 1.2G isp speed

    Wifi reaches the complete house and makes it through the outer wall to a separate garage. Constant bandwidth on all three bands. Wish some devices did not have issues joining 2.4 and 5 into auto connect, but easy to change it back if you have a device that gets confused

    Wanted to update my old R8000 NightHawk I had gotten used. Tried a Mesh eero system which my house was too small for. This seems like it will be a SOLID replacement. Install was easy through the app. Love the new look of the wings and not individual antennas.

    Effective...but cables right the first time

    I did the initial set up with the cable from the router NOT going to the 2.5 Ghz port. Well, when I discovered the error, and re-plugged it, it involved a 45 minute call with NETGEAR. Moral of the story...read directions carefully in the beginning.

    Get something else. Bought this to replace my setup at home that's provided by the cable company. Cable companies typically give you the cheapest piece of hardware that they can get away with and charge you for a premium product. I wanted to replace that with this Nighthawk AXE7800. It drops connection so much that I have continued to connect the majority of my devices to the wifi that's provided by my cable router rather than to this. This is connected via cable to my router so it should be providing very fast, near infallible connection to the internet. And yet it is more finicky, unnecessarily complex, and less effective than the garbage that the cable company provides with my service.

    This is by far the best made right now. Uninterrupted service in a 12,0000 sq ft building, with no dead spots. It’s worth the dollars. Setup was so easy I couldn’t believe they got it right!

    We recently bought and installed a new Netgear Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi 6E Router (RAXE300). The install was fairly easy. It is a little earlier to tell, but it seems to be working well. We were having problems with our internet before, so we really hope it solves our problems.
