    I bought this to replace a router that kept knocking down the internet. This has an easy setup, and we havent lost the internet once. I don't need any extenders, I can go outside the house and still have good signal. Very Very happy!!!

    Easy setup with app, good coverage, fast speeds, sleek design. Upgraded from a previous nighthawk router but with my NAS and smart home hub setup needed more Ethernet ports.

    Our router needed to be updated with better security and performance. After reviewing the options available the best choice for our requirements was the Nighthawk WiFi 7 RS500 router. Upon installation our network performance improved significantly. This router was easy to install and up and running in no time. We now enjoy faster more reliable streaming and better network security as well. We highly recommend this router.

    Very fast speeds! Setting up device can be a little tricky, was for me at least due to spectrum provider. Very stable network connection and can handle multiple devices at once. Smart home, gaming, business, school devices connect with ease. Nighthawk app helps you manage and view everything with your router. Very good product no complaints!

    Nighthawk Review

    Setup went smoothly. Performance has been great, I typically have 15 to 20 nodes online and there have been no problems. Range is better than with my old WiFi 6 router which had 6 antennas. This router is a definite upgrade from my old WiFi 6 router but it cost more than twice as much. So far, I am happy that I spent the extra money.

    This is an amazing product. My house has many turns and walls. Before getting this I had satelles in almost every wall outlet. Now I have just the one connected to my router and two satellites. Wow what a difference!!!! I can now get Netflix and amazon Prime with no problems. It is expensive but well worth the money, and no I am not getting pald to write this or receiving any compensation, as far as I know.

    Fast and decently easy setup if you are a little tech savvy. It's nice to have the 6ghz band as an option. The range on that band is fairly short. Same room or adjacent room works best for me. If you are farther away from the router than that, then you are best sticking to the 5ghz band. But overall I am very happy with the BE12000. It can handles many devices and multiple family members streaming/gaming at once. You are really only limited by your ISP.

    This router has improved my connection in my house drastically. I am getting faster speeds and farther coverage than my old nighthawk I had before that was still WiFi 5. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who games or likes to stream 4k or even 8k content.

    Just what i needed, stop wasting your money and get something that has no problems getting the job done fast and great. These days we have many devices on our wifi slowing down internet, this will help, keep your devices on a strong wifi. You pay for what you get. Love it.

    The router was a great upgrade from the one supplied by my ISP. I was able to increase my speeds and the stability seems to be good. It has only been installed two weeks, so I guess time will tell concerning its reliability.

    I'm familiar with the Netgear brand so that's what I looked for...especially since I was already familiar with the Nighthawk app. This device is advertised to cover 3,000 sq ft of space. My home is 4,100+ sq ft (2 stories) and it covers is flawlessly. I even have a total of 7 HD cameras outside of my home and this same router handles them with no problem giving me the ability to live stream them remotely with no buffering
