Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

I get good coverage up stairs and in the basement without a mesh. Great speeds also.

I had a XR 500 before this router it was good but this router the RS500 was way easier to setup and the performance is un matched latency dropped incredibly more stable and it is also very slim and speak very easy to put in a spot that nobody is afraid of bumping or something of that sort I will continue to stay with netgear and their gaming routers the performance in my experience again is unmatched thanks again netgear

Easy to set up, coverage area is excellent, device is reliable. Would recommend this produce to anyone that wants a quality router for a decent price, well worth the money!

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.

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.

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 thing is a powerhouse of a router and has increased my downloads speeds paired with my modem

10/10 would buy netgear products again. The router provided strong connection throughout house.

Works great in areas that Xfinity has upgraded upload speeds

Awesome router super-fast and very easy to install. What I love about this router is the amount of devices you can connected

Easy to install Works extremely fast! Replaces my old eero system

I bought it because my cable supplier router is ridiculously unreliable. Always had the “It’s not the router, it’s my devices, or it’s just the internet these days” excuse holding me back but now that I got it- I’m beyond belief surprised it took so much frustration to get to this point. Everything is faster. My devices are more compatible. I should have bought it earlier. Thanks.

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

Works great! Not a single whatsoever and easy setup!

This product delivers! The salesperson. James. Was great. Gave it 4 stars only because it took several attempts to get it up and running. Partially fault. Partially instructions a little confusing. I’m pretty good with this sort of thing generally so if you’re not. Get someone who is. Overall once done. Great piece.

Worth the 349 I paid for it Great range and fast speeds And a space saving design Highly recommended buy if you are looking for a new router or if you are wanting to upgrade your network to WiFi 7 at a good price

This has been one of the best routers I have ever owned before this I had a TP link XP75 pro and it could not touch this. This router has given me exceptional speeds very happy with this purchase

Replaced a Google Mesh network with Nighthawk router. Wanted separate 2.4 & 5 bands. The install directions were easy to follow andt it recognized existing devices automatically. Did not have to add them individually. Very happy with it's performance so far.
