Customer Ratings & Reviews

Downloaded app, selected setup new device, scanned the QR code and was connected. I was able to login in via ip address and set things up as I wanted. Coverage and speed is good so far.

I've been using this router for a while now, and I'm really happy with it. It's super easy to set up, even for someone like me who's not a tech expert. My wifi coverage is so much better than it was with my old router. Plus, the speed is amazing – I can stream movies and play games without any lag. It's also really reliable; I haven't had any connection issues since I switched. Honestly, for the price, you can't beat it. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good, solid router.

Good router range weaker then older router works great for gaming and running Wyze cameras off it. Can't get my garage door to sync to it. Might be due to location in my house. But my older router reached it in the past. Do have a oil furnace chimney maybe messing with signal. Also annoying there is a paywall for monitoring features for parents. Luckily have other ways to monitor internet traffic.

Very easy to set up, and works great for the whole house.

Have been using netgear routers for many years. Swapping from an older AX5200 to this BE6500 we went from 900mbps down/ 60mbps up to 2300+ mbps down/70+ mbps up!! Wish i would have bought sooner! Was $229 at time of purchase which is phenomenal for the preforamce and functionality. The nighthawk app is easy to use and free. Just cant beat netgear routers!

Connecting this was easy, but it seamed like it took a long time. Speed is great!

Super fasy and reliable! This router will geive you everything you need. All my devices are connecting super fast and no lag woth streaming. Get it!

I am extremely pleased with my RS200! It arrived quickly and was easy to install and set up. My ISP provides 1Gbps and am registering 925 Mbps for downloads and 536 Mbps for uploads. I have a two story home and had no issues connecting all of my devices, including a home standby generator at the opposite end the house and on the basement level. I highly recommend the RS200 - excellent product and great price!

Easy to set up. Great speeds and security! Excellent range! Very happy with my purchase.

Very happy with this purchase. We were in need of replacing our outdated router. The nighthawk offers an extremely user friendly APP allowing to control the VPN and devices that attempt to connect your network. It also offers superior parental controls via user friendly UI that anyone could quickly learn. The latest WiFi 7 speed is outstanding too!!!

I have very strong connectivity on all my devices. I love controlling the router with the app on my phone. I have two desktop gaming, PCs, a gaming laptop, two iPhones, a ring doorbell, two iPads, and two Apple TVs connected. The performance of this router is amazing.

Netgear nighthawk BE-6500 router works pretty well, but sometimes disconnects from older models, TVs and appliances. Also upload speed fluctuates on a daily basis. Other than that it’s a pretty good router would’ve gave it a five star if it wasn’t for these things that I just mentioned.

Super easy to install and setup. The guy who helped me was awesome with choices which one to get.

I previously had a 13 year old R6200 Netgear router that finally gave up the ghost. Did my research and found this one to my liking. Based on my last router I am hoping this last just as long given the workmanship and quality of the products

Recently bought a high definition smart TV and the Netgear Nighthawk has provided great reception. No pixilation or connection issues. a great addition if you have a high def smart TV. The only issue was I could not use my old password which required having to reset all of my smart devices!

This is a great router. Purchase it so I could cut ties with the cable supplied devices. Its perfect.

This router is kicking major butt so far. No issues and totally stoked!

12/28/2024 – I bought a shiny new Netgear router. Sleek, fast, expensive—basically the Ferrari of home networking. I had high hopes. 6/15/2025 – Father’s Day. You know, the day you’re supposed to relax, maybe grill something, and feel appreciated. Instead? My Netgear router died like Louie (my childhood hampster)—suddenly and without explanation. So, I called customer support followed instructions, hoping for a resurrected router. • Unplug and try another outlet – Classic. A timeless first step. • Hold the reset button for 3 minutes – Okay, sure. I mean, that’s a full TikTok recipe video, but fine. • Press reset, wait 10 seconds, unplug, repeat 10 times – I’m sorry, is this networking or summoning a demon? • Connect an Ethernet cable to a computer and… try to connect – At this point I’m basically in a ‘90s hacker movie. After this hour-long dance, I was told: “Great news! Just pay us $30 for advanced shipping, and we’ll send you a new device—you return the old one later.” Fine. No internet for a day, I can handle that. Maybe even talk to my family. 6/16/2025 – Day 2 without internet. An email arrives! But instead of shipping confirmation, it’s: “Please send us proof of purchase and label info.” Oh. Cool. Just a quick follow-up that could’ve been mentioned yesterday while I was doing acrobatics with the router cable. But okay. Easy-peasy—I emailed the info that night. 6/17/2025 – Day 3 without internet. Anantha calls. Poor guy. He drew the short straw. “Because you purchased a premium router…” Wait, pause. Premium? You mean the one that quit after 5 months and 18 days? “…you have to send it to us first before we send a replacement.” So let me get this straight: I pay more for a higher-end device and I get the privilege of waiting two weeks without internet while you inspect it like it’s a rare artifact? Also, didn’t I pay for next-day shipping? I asked for a supervisor. Anantha put me on hold. And… that was the last I ever heard from him. Anantha, if you’re reading this—blink twice if you’re okay. 6/18/2025 – Day 4 without internet. At this point, my household had started asking “Is the internet back?” the way kids ask “Are we there yet?” on a road trip. I realized Netgear wasn’t coming to save me. But someone did… Eero. I got a new router, plugged it in, and boom—internet back. The heavens opened. A choir sang. ⸻ In Full Disclosure: I’ve used Netgear for years. Never had a problem. But this time? This experience was like trying to cancel cable in the early 2000s. The router broke. I followed every step. I paid for express service. I gave receipts, serial numbers, maybe even a few drops of blood. And still—nothing. The disorganization and “we’ll tell you what you need after you’ve done everything else” approach broke me. So, I moved on. And you know what? I’m happy with my decision. (Also, I hope Anantha escaped the customer service vortex.)

Title: Great Description: Easy to install. Works great. Very fast on all our devices. So glad we upgraded from our old Netgear. It always worked well for 6 years. The new one is even faster. The range and signal strength is great. Works in all rooms of a large house.

Setting up this router was easy, the dedicated app walked me through all the steps. I was able to get it up and running in around 10 minutes. The range is impressive—I'm able to get a strong, reliable signal throughout my two-story home. In terms of performance, it’s more than capable of supporting multiple HD video streams simultaneously without any noticeable buffering or lag, making it ideal for households with heavy streaming or multiple connected devices.
