Incredible upgrade!
I recently upgraded to the NETGEAR Nighthawk® AX6 WiFi 6 Router (RAX54S), and it has been an absolute game-changer for my home network. One of the standout features for me is the incredible range—my phone now gets a strong WiFi signal no matter where I am in the house. Whether I’m in the basement, upstairs, or even out on the patio, I stay connected with excellent speeds.Another huge improvement is the lower ping for gaming on my laptop. I’m an avid gamer, and before getting this router, I used to experience frustrating lag spikes during online matches. Now, with the upgraded WiFi 6 technology, my connection is stable, and the latency is noticeably reduced. My gameplay feels smoother than ever, and I can compete without worrying about interruptions.Setup was surprisingly easy, and the performance has exceeded my expectations. If you need better coverage and a more reliable connection, especially for gaming, I highly recommend this router!

Quick and effective
I bought this router based on the previous reviews and brand confidence. At the time, it was priced very competitively and it was simple to set up. It has worked flawlessly and provides coverage for our two level 2800 sq. ft home effectively. I am very happy with this device and would recommend it for any mid sized home.

Great but Confusing
The WiFi is great and the setup was a relatively easy process, but it’s a bit confusing with there being 2 networks (NETGEAR24 and NEATGEAR24-5G) with some parts of the setup being based off assumptions more than instructions, like the app didn’t tell me anything about the antennas but I just assumed you can finger-screw them on. Also, for some reason, it’ll automatically block websites for malware protection, except the only websites have been for the company that fixed my refrigerator. Last thing, I don’t know why but for all of my devices, NETGEAR24 isn’t the default network, and it won’t let me switch it, so they connect back to my original router a lot.

Fast arrival, good antenna design, not so fragile, plenty of flexibility and a snap to get running.
My old router gave up the ghost after 7 years. After some research settled on this one. Installation was a snap. In minutes we were back up and operating. Three usable links, two support streaming, wifi computering, etc. Third lower bandwidth one we use for devices and cellphones. I like this company and buy their stuff when I need something. Never been disappointed.

Great router!!
I was a previous NG Nighthawk user (X4S from 2017) and reason I finally decided to replace was that I was losing so much speed. I have Frontier Fiber 500 MBPS and was only getting 50 MBPS! I replaced it with the newer model and man..getting back my speed..back to 500 and sometimes 600 MBPS. Setup is super easy and friendly, only downside is that you will have to re-add all your devices/printers..ugh. ALSO, the previous problem with trying to login the the admin router at your desktop seems to be fixed! I was able to login into the router settings from my desktop and there was no issue. Some have said the problem might develop later with some database log(s) issue, so we will see. But for now, this router is great and works perfect!!

Fast, Secure and stylish
Bought this router to replace my Xfinity gateway but then decided to switch to Verizon fiber optic which ended up being a match made in heaven. The nighthawk app makes setup and navigating the router settings beyond easy. Just a great piece of hardware to pair with your home network.

Great router, *Required netgear account is BS
This router is working great. Range is perfect for my small office ~ 2500sq Feet. The setup was a bit choppy b/c of the *Required netgear account?? I would like to see that go away. Once that cluster….. was overcame the rest of the setup with local ip in browser was easy.
