    Powerful and stable router

    Finally a superb router that works! This router is replacing a Google Nest WiFi router that was very problematic. I figured for my latest router, I should stick with the same brand as my cable modem, which is also Netgear brand, and everything is working perfectly now. My Philips Hue bridge and Solar City gateway, which must be physically connected to the router are flawlessly working, which was not the case with the Google Nest WiFi. Also I have full WiFi anywhere in my home of 1800 square feet, even though all of my internet equipment is installed in the basement. The Nighthawk App, used to setup the Netgear router worked well, and was very user friendly. I did a speed test with that app, and I am getting slightly more than my bit rate from Xfinity! I’m very happy to have a stable, powerful, WiFi router as all of my connected devices now run perfectly!

    New technology makes a huge difference with all the new video formats and high-resolution quality, and the router is the vehicle to transport the information back and forth. I am so happy this was the easiest router I have hooked up in 20 years and the best quality. Use it for my office space, 1 streaming TV, YouTube channel, Webinar hosting, Podcasting, Video upload and download. Fast, and device friendly.

    Love it! Just upgraded from a very old router… like 7 years old… this runs everything in my home very easily and constant 6-800 mbps with my new 1gig internet speed… my old router would only push out about 250-260 mbps on a 500 mb internet sub. Love the nighthawk app and everything that comes with it. Makes everything very simple to connect and keep track of. Would deff recommend

    Our Internet provider recently upgraded our speeds to 300mbit and our old Netgear router was 7 years old only getting roughly 75-80mbit speeds. We upgraded to this router and our speeds are nearing 400mbit!! Very impressed and have always loved Netgear! If you are wanting faster speeds I HIGHLY recommend this router! GREAT price!

    I had originally bought the Google wifi router ac1200, but to it back immediately. Comcast ran all new lines to my house, I had 378 mbps up and 25 down hardwired from my modem but only 100 down and 8 up from the Google router. I bought this netgear router and ran a couple of speed tests via WiFi and had speeds that matches the hardwired speeds from the modem.

    So in the middle of a job, my previous router decided to die, no warning. I work from home - so this is a BIG DEAL. Quickly off to the store and returned with the RAX10 (NETGEAR AX4 4-Stream AX1800 WiFi 6 Router). It only took about 10 minutes to be completely set-up and ready to go. I did a speed check and voila, FASTER than ever! LOVE my new RAX10!

    Amazing. This router produces network speeds over 4x faster then the router i was replacing only because signal strength. Not only is it insanely faster which was a very nice surprise, it also reaches far beyond the backyard and entirely covers my property which is almost an acre. I am very happy with this product as it's capable of providing full speed to up to 20 devices simultaneously. I have a big family, this is a game changer for network speeds when downloading and streaming in a house full of millenials! Thanks big time Netgear!

    After installing our new NETGEAR AX4 AX1800 WiFi 6 router I noticed a major uptick in speed and quality of our internet. Every channel comes in crystal clear with no ugly spinning wheel waiting for the stream to catch up. The internet on our wireless devices are lightning fast with webpages loading up super quick. I cannot recommend this device from NETGEAR more. Five Gold Stars *****

    Reliable wifi is more important than ever with security cameras, home entertainment, etc. We have 23 devices to date and my older wifi mesh system required constant reboots and speeds weren't up to par in nodes. Wifi 6 allows much faster throughput with wifi 6 devices. I'm connecting in man cave and master bath at 470mbps with my iphone 13. Easy set up, great range, and reliability are strengths of this router. You can spend much more and get much less if you aren't careful. 4 Ethernet ports come in handy also. There is no substitute for some knowledge on how wifi needs to be set up depending on specific devices. It's always better to hardwire with Ethernet if possible but sometimes not possible depending on structure. It would be very difficult to get a better performing router at this price point, especially if you have compatible wifi 6 devices. I have a 400 mbps spectrum internet plan as an fyi. With my amplifi 3 station system I replaced I had slow speeds in areas I used mesh points and had to continuously reboot. I'm getting faster speeds and better reliability with this wifi 6 router. I had invested 300 in old system and got 3 years out of that system. This router is the best on market in my opinion (at this price) by today's standards. It also allows excellent expansion if needed. I would start with 1 and see if your content with performance. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Range is also excellent with external antennas. Our home is 2200 square foot ranch and this does a great job inside and outside with my wifi 6 phone. Highly recommended

    Easy set-up using the app. Was up and running in less than an hour. Our teenage daughter definitely noticed an improvement in download speed. Pleasantly suprised to have a WiFi Guest connection. Don't recall seeing that feature. I probably just missed it. Works great. Does what its supposed to do.

    I bought this Netgear WiFi 6 router when both my cable modem and router were taken out by lightning. Setup was quick and easy using the NetGear NightHawk App. It was just a matter of downloading the app, scanning a QR code on the router packaging, and following the step by step instructions presented on my phone. Once up and running, I found the performance of the router to be excellent. My entire house and parts of my yard see good coverage, and speeds are in the mid 200Mbps range (400/20 cable service). The app also allows for remote management, which is extremely helpful since I travel for work, and if my wife has an issue, I can log in remotely and have a look as long as the actual cable service isn't down. This is a great device, and I have no qualms recommending it.

    Recently purchased Netgear AX4-Stream AX 1800 WiFi 6 Router (RA10), best purchase ever made without spending lots money. Speed unbelievable, very fast. Mesh router works throughout 3 levels townhome. Tech support 5 stars assisting with set up. Spoke with live tech agent rather than chat. Looking for modem that work without spending lots for mesh router, this one comes highly recommended. All reviews 5 stars which was super helpful and instrumental in decision to purchase Netgear mesh router.
