    I decided it was time to upgrade our network from our 2008 Apple TimeCapsule. It seemed as though our upgrade to our Internet service speed was not being fully utilized. The Nighthawk X6 seems to be getting the job done just fine. Since this upgrade, my kids have not complained of video buffering on their tablets (via WiFi) and an Internet speed test definitely shows a boost. So far, happy with the purchase.

    This is a very good router. We had a NETGEAR router for years but it finally had an electrical issue and we were forced to get another router. We just recently bought a Netgear Modem with voice and wanted to stay with Netgear. It was easy to setup and it works well - much faster than our older one.

    Purchased this router as I needed an updated one. Didn't realize that for the price I got such a good unit. Love it and know I can expand with it.

    I have a dead spot in my office and my internet would be spotty, at best, very slow. I would get frustrated sitting and waiting for a page to load. Since I hooked up my NetGear Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router, my computer has been running great....loading pages in a fraction of the time it was taking before. I am much more productive now....I Love it!

    Exchanged this from the dual band version, same range but it boast best coverage. I'm not convinced on this. But the extra Tri Band make it worth it for old and newest devices

    We needed an efficient router to make the best of our slower country internet. The Nighthawk does not disappoint. We have a larger house and it can get Wifi signals we’ll beyond the border of our house. I can’t recommend this enough! Some people said it may be hard to set up. I had no issues setting it up.
