Customer Ratings & Reviews

This router works really well. Many people in household using many devices on top and bottom floor and still works well.

The whole process of setting this router up and getting my house back on-line was quick and easy. Plus wifi in the house is better than it was with my old router.

This replaced a X4S that was fried by power issues up stream. This was the perfect upgrade/replacement and has handled all of our smart-home, computer and phone needs.

Only issue to date is dropping of signal at times but a quick reset fixes it. Not sure if it is the router or my connection.

This router was an improvement on our old one. The only downside is that it does take up a lot of space.

I love that this router allows you to have guest networks. I put all my idiot friends on that wifi

I have owned many routers over the years and this is by far the best. We have about 12 devices in our household and they all constantly have great WiFi speed!

Router is amazing for a high tech house. Tvs, iPads and phones as well as personnel PCs all connected and never slow!

I went with this one because I needed a router "today". My brand of choice is usually TP-Link. As soon as I started setting it up I noticed that the menu was no where near as nice/intuitive as the TP-Link. I have lots of problems with this router and have to reboot it daily or devices start losing the IP and the NAT with inexplicably switch to strict so my gaming suffers. I've had calls with Netgear support and while they're nice and friendly, they haven't been able to fix the issues. After loading the latest firmware, it disabled some of the QoS features, the parental controls and moved to a subscription model. Now those features are completely disabled unless I want to pay a monthly fee. Not cool! Now they want me to pay for features I already had in the router?!

Love this router! Powerful reliable for the most part. Had some issues with the 5G-1 connectivity issues off and on. Would buy again

The Nighthawk X6S router is everything I hoped for. Great wifi coverage in my large home. I almost went with a mesh system, but I am very happy choosing this router.

Net gear is a quality product and Best Buy has quality people to help you select and install product.

I had to replace my router modem combo, and was told to install separate router and modems for better service. I did, and with this router it was a definite win.

I had internet issues before I switch to this router. 3 bands just work perfect and my internet problems are gone! Recommend 100%.

Great router. I use it to setup a second network for the smart devices in my home and recommend it to clients.

Bought this unit to replace another that dropped wifi connections frequently. This one hasn't dropped one yet. Recommended!

Was looking to improve my wifi home coverage but to be honest I have the nighthawk ac1900 and taught this would be an upgrade from that and maybe it is but I didn't see a difference in my house. Ended up returning it and buying an ethernet cable long enough to set up my old router in the middle of the house and that worked out great.

Instant speed increase. Multiple channels is great for a house with numerous devices. A definite for those with numerous connections on the net.

I have three hardwired devices and phones and lap tops and streaming devices running off of wifi. Only time I have an issue is when it's on my provider's end.

I love the fact that I have control over the WiFi when it comes to having teens at home during the pandemic! Let’s just say chores get done.
