Rated 5 out of 5 by from A simple way to bring ethernet to a room... Before this I was using Moca adapters for ethernet to a room upstairs, but I don't think my cable company love that idea. Also, when I installed the filters the Moca adapters no longer transmitted to each other. Wasn't sure if I was leaking signals to neighbors so I had to put the idea to rest. I am glad I became aware of this Netgear EAX80. It does the job of a switch (four ethernet ports) and a range extender all in one device simultaneously, one power plug, less wires. I'm sure I can plug the EXA80 into my existing switch if I ever need more ports. Works great!!! Currently using to connect my Apple TV, and Steam Deck with ethernet. Wish my monitor had an ethernet port, but that will have to wait for the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great WiFi Extender I have WiFi cameras outside on all sides of the house. The cameras on the farthest side of the house did weird things sometimes when recording because of the weak signal. After installing the EAX80 extender, I now get 4 out of 4 WiFi bars on those cameras that previously only got 1 out of 4 bars. All cameras now work great! I setup the extender on that side of the house and coverage is now great all around!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Extender out there! I purchased several other extenders prior to the NetGear. Let me tell you, I wish I would have purchased this first! Setup was so easy. I followed along with the guided setup via the app. Once setup I moved it to my desired location in my home. We can now connect our phones, stream, and run our laptops in EVERY room of the house. Before we would drop calls, buffer, be unable to connect in our office. I highly recommend this extender.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Extender works exactly as described Quite simply, this extender does exactly what we needed in our large home. Internet reception was poor in one corner of the house before, but now the coverage is even regardless of where we are. Excellent product from NETGEAR. Not the lowest priced out there, but well worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from CAX80 EAX80 combo Used this extender with the Nighthawk CAX80 running 1200gbps Xfinity mainly due to many nearby Wi-Fi signals in the neighborhood bringing down my signal strength. I tested both the speed using 6 online speed tests and also using Netspot to measure the signal strength. Both greatly increased with the addition of the extender! Great for multi-floor homes!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Netgear's EAX80 Mesh Extender This Netgear Nighthawk AX6000 WiFi 6 Mesh Extender purchase was a replacement for an older Netgear extender I bought previously. With the new extender, I now have a strong and uninterrupted Internet signal throughout my home. Also, I no longer have to worry about restarting the extender because of a weak WiFi signal or equipment failure. These benefits are due to the improved WiFi 6 technology that is included in this Netgear extender unit. Finally, equipment setup was easy.

Until now, I have been very pleased with Netgear products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It failed...clicking sound! I bought this almost 1 year ago. Kept in a clean studio at 78 degrees with workstation and sensitive audio and computer equipment. One day it just stopped working. No lights on and a clicking sound. Checked power supply; it was fine. Tried plugging into other outlets still just a clicking sound from inside the unit...no lights. Disappointing. I feel bad for Netgear. I think their supplier of the internal components which I'm sure were outsourced probably let them down with inferior product. Tried another unit that I paid for. It too had problems (loose parts inside The failure rate is too high... moving on to another manufacturer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Second time is the charm Purchased the first Netgear Night Hawk and worked two evenings trying to set it up. I could not complete the st up even though the online down load was very easy to follow so I contacted the “free” Net Gear on line customer service and the first thing it asked for after my name was a credit card for payment. That isn’t exactly my idea of free and I abandoned the process. I contacted the vendor’s customer service via phone. After a fifty five minute wait I had a friendly, helpful live person. After about thirty minutes of do this or try that it was determined the best thing was to remove the set up process and start over. We did and got to the same place in the set up and experienced the exact same problem. It was determined the new extender must be faulty and that I should return the entire unit. I returned the unit to the vendor where I purchased it, Best Buy. Other than a seventy five mile trip each way the extender was exchanged without issue. The replacement extender set up as per the instructions and works perfectly

We already had a Nighthawk AX12 in our 1100sf condo but when we moved to a house with an unattached garage and over an acre of property, we found the drop-off in signal wasn't meeting our needs. We bought AX6000. Installation was simple. Not only did we hook it up to the Xbox for faster speeds but now our garage and deck have WIFI!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It disconnects from the actual router. No matter how closely it is to the actual router it disconnects. I tried to open a web page and it almost looks like it is looking for the signal it lags in trying to open the page. My opinion is that they almost looks like they’re fighting to connect to the device, the router, and the extender. To me it looks like it doesn’t work like like an extender, but an actual router either my place is too small or the extender is too big. So having said that it almost feels like it crashes sometimes, and download speed is really low when there is multiple devices connected . I’m thinking of just returning it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mediocre extender Mediocre wifi extender for the price their are better options out their. You would expect stellar performance for the price point but range is mediocre at best. The mesh option is nice if everything you have plays nice with 2.4 and 5g while somethings require 2.4g which negates the mesh option. Quality does appear to be good so I hope lasts awhile time will tell. Set up is very easy and straightforward have only used as extender so can't comment on AP functionality. Overall very mediocre as extender range is fair not what you would expect from this price point quality appears good. Their are better options for performance and price out there.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Internet is far back area of the house. When 2 big cable companies said it would cost us thousands upon thousands to bring internet to a small house in the back of a main house I bought this nighthawk mesh extender. I was very skeptical that it would work because of the distance between the two dwellings but guess what? It did work. WiFi is now available throughout the new house w/o having to pay any new monthly fees.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A little over budget Device is sub par for a 200$ range extender. I have 2 in the house and it causes a bandwidth or lag issue. If I create a separate ssid it works okay on Wi-Fi. Once connected to Ethernet I get a rubber band and lag spike from 30-200 rapidly making it unable to play games like apex or valorant. My isp speed is 600mbps. Wired directly from router to pc I get about 550mbps.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bad product, bad tech support I purchased this product after seeing multiple positive reviews on tech review sites. There were some negative reviews on Amazon but there are always a few. I should have listened to what they said. When the Nighthawk Mesh extender arrived, I followed the installation instructions using the Nighthawk app. The QR code didn’t scan correctly so I did a manual install. Unfortunately I had to stop when it mentioned using the “included” Ethernet cable, which wasn’t included. I then configured it using the WPS approach but none of my devices received any signal despite the extender appearing to transmit. On my iPhone, I kept getting a separate security certificate error message and it didn’t receive internet either. I tried to go through the reconfiguration steps several more times and then called tech support. After being on hold for almost an hour, I was connected to someone who said I needed to speak to a specialist. I was on hold for 30 more minutes. By this point, when I checked my computer, it seemed to be receiving a signal. I couldn’t check my phone because I was speaking on it, but the tech support person said that the error message I got was nothing to worry about and it shouldn’t appear again. But the next day, it did and I couldn’t send email from my iPhone without shutting off the nighthawk extender. I looked online for solutions and apparently this is a common, known problem with this extender and Apple products. All of the “solutions” being suggested on the community forum involved significant admin level changes to fix and many seemed to weaken network security. As an IT professional, I’m perfectly capable of doing complex command language level changes, but not if it compromises my network security. Consequently, I ended up returning the product. The return process seems to have gone smoothly but I’ve not seen my charge refunded yet so I’m reluctant to say that it’s too easy. Overall, I’d recommend going with a brand other than Netgear especially if you have Apple devices that you need to connect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Major improvement in WiFi speed and coverage! This is a very handy unit that looks great and works well. I paired the extender with a Nighthawk AX12 for full coverage of my large two-story home. The Nighthawk is downstairs at one end of the house and the extender is upstairs at the other end. I'm using it as a range extender and not a hot spot. I have been using Netgear routers and switches for years now and the software just keeps getting better. Configuration is intuitive and as simple or complex as you like. I used the Smart Connect feature which really simplified things but requires a little more thought if you need to directly access the extender during troubleshooting; use the provided link in the downloadable instructions and you're home free. The coverage is excellent and now all devices, phones, tablets, and computers have a strong signal. REALLY strong and blazing fast at 5G. The only minor issue I encountered was also mentioned in other reviews. Even though I immediately updated the firmware during installation, for about the first two weeks it went through a period of stabilizing where it would momentarily lose connection with the Nighthawk for a few seconds each day. It never dropped any devices and we wouldn't have noticed had I not been nearby and noticed the uplink light turn red. However, as reported by other users, this cleared up after about two weeks and it's been rock solid ever since. Perhaps it was building routing tables or something like that. Finally, I've never had a single Netgear device fail so expect it to last until the technology is obsolete. Highly recommended!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good once setup The extender works great once setup, however getting setup required some effort. The app refused to work (errored out saying incorrect password multiple times doing various combinations of attempted workarounds - the password was completely fine, same with security selection). I had to connect a laptop via ethernet to the extender to get anywhere. I also do not broadcast my SSID which proved to be a problem with initial setup. I had to turn on broadcasting temporarily to get it connected and even when doing that, the admin pages timed out multiple times. I'm not sure if it's poor scripting or an underpowered CPU, but the webpages in the admin console are quite slow. Apart from the setup headaches, the device works great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy set up. Decent speeds. Good coverage As the title states the extender is very easy to set up with the app. I have been pleased with the overall strength of signal it provides (using it downstairs to extend main router upstairs). My fiber speeds go from 900MBps upstairs to around 300-400 downstairs. That’s a drop for sure but livable. Item is probably pricier than it delivers on performance. But the idea of simplifying the set up experience and having one SSID to rule them all makes the product worth it.

I read a ton of the reviews and was a bit skeptical, but the set up was flawless and the extender is working perfectly. It updated and did everything it needed to and it's fine. I don't know why other people couldn't figure it out, the app made it SO easy. If I'm on a work call and moving around, my call will trip up and need to reconnect when my signal switches to the extender, but it's a quick hiccup and now that I know about it, I just make sure I'm not the one talking if I have to move to the extender's region of the house. I'm getting great speeds and I'd recommend this even if you don't have a nighthawk router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Complete and easy to use The setup with the app was very easy to do. It's nice that it can keep the same network name as the source. The range of coverage is as advertised. Also, the signal-strength light is very useful to position the device at the correct place, this saves a lot of time and helps to optimize the WiFi network very easily. It's worth the price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super easy setup for novices like myself It was really easy to setup my Nighthawk Wifi 6 extender to my existing network. It fixed the connection issues I was having with my home security video cameras, and was so happy with the experience I upgraded my existing router to their Nighthawk WiFi 6E and my network performs better than ever.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Product, but $$$ Purchased this product to extend our ax12 router for the front part of our house. We had the ax12 for a couple of weeks and it was blazing fast, but one of our nest cams at the furthest corner of the house kept dropping intermittently, so we added the ax8 extender to remedy. Upon installation, we were plagued with speeds in the 25mbps range from our previously 350 range on our iPhones and wireless devices. For the life of me I could not figure out the problem until I went on the forums and found someone who had a similar experience. I connected the ax8 wirelessly and would have preferred a hard connection, but the instructions didn’t necessarily differentiate that extender vs access point configuration would lead to slowdown of wireless. I wish the instructions for installation would have had a disclaimer that stated “using this product as an extender will result in slower WiFi speeds and connectivity issues; for optimal performance, configure as a wired access point.” Now that we have our ax8 reconfigured as an AP, we are back to blazing fast speeds!

I was getting 230mbps good enough, but I wanted it faster..yesterday I bumped it back up to 4800mbps but this time I turned on Mu-mimo..went up to 443mpbs outstanding since real world results are reduced to have over an extender since it has send and receive off of one band I get 900mpbs wifi directly to router

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stable network is difficult I have a home with 3 floors and a remote garage. Because my work requires a low latency and highly reliable network, I wanted to upgrade from the default hardware from my service provider. The fiber connection comes into the house in the basement on the far side of the buildings from my office. I put in a Nighthawk AX12 router with Cat 6e hardwire to the cable modem and picked up 900+MB/s WiFi with a stable jitter. I then started adding the EAX80 extenders. I needed 3 to cover the area and different elevations. These need to be placed precisely to get the best signal. That doesn’t surprise me since any signal extender is only as good as what it receives. The iPhone app does not show signal strength, but going to the mywifi.local page does. That allowed me to get the best signal setup. Showing a numeric value for the signal strength, even in”MBs” is better than showing the WiFi arcs. What did surprise me is how poor the performance could become. Although these are titled as “mesh” extenders, the current firmware appears to link to the network SSID, but doesn’t determine the best node to link to. It randomly selects the weakest signal with the same SSID resulting in sudden losses of data transfer and packet loss. I had to create 3 separate network SSIDs to avoid having the furthest extender attempting to link. I have also found packets being routed in a loop between extenders. Hopefully this can be fixed in later firmware releases. Mesh extenders that cost significantly less don’t suffer from this issue. I would only recommend this to a friend if they have a solid understanding of networking infrastructure (or if I could help them. The current firmware is V1.0.0.36_1.0.1

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Was about to return but was I ever wrong! I connected this extender to the RAX120 via the Netgear app and after many speed tests, reinstalls, and attempting different locations I could not get the speeds I was hoping for. In fact, I didn't even had full mesh 5ghz coverage around my 3100 sq. ft. home. My Samsung Note 9 kept on getting sent to the 2.4 Ghz frequency as well with slower than expected speeds. After some research in miscellaneous forums, I ran into a similar scenario to mine where using of the SMART SETUP installation via a windows based computer fixed the problem. I think the app installation makes it easy and faster but using your computer and the Smart Setup is definetely the best option that gave me the results I expected. I have now only positive things to say about this EAX80 extender that in conjunction with the RAX120 they're a force to be reckoned with.

Other Netgear products I have used and purchased have been rock solid. Not this one though. Spent 30 minutes on hold waiting for help, then 45 minutes for the tech person trying different things. The 5 GHz radios didn’t stay on right out of the box. The software app is not intuitive or easy to understand. They need to let customers try out there products during the development cycle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great WHEN it's working I bought this in hopes of replacing the Nighthawk X6S EX8000 3 Gbps WIFI Range Extender. Big mistake. The set up is easy and when it connects, I can get the 5Ghz channel to connect up to 2880 Mbps BUT it all of a sudden just DROPS to no connection and leaves only the 2.5Ghz working. The X6S is a MUCH more stable unit when placed at the same exact location. I'm an electrical engineer and understand wifi signals, placement, etc. Placing this unit at the same exact place as the older X6S is enough to deduce that this is an inferior product when it comes to stability. Perhaps a firmware update is needed - BUT it is stuck on 1.0.0.36_1.0.1 and says there's no update available.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It work good enough It works with my router and the speeds are reasonable. I like that it has 4 ethernet ports. Wifi 6 is nice. At initial setup, it did not work very smoothly. It is working ok now. The range extenders software has a lackluster of features I wish there were more. Overall, it is a good product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from EAX 80 Extender I replaced this for the EX8000, which stopped working in me. The EAX80 s good product, doing what it is designed for. The set up by the nighthawk app is little bit hard - I had to reset the unit to factory setting twice in order to complete the set up successfully. Let’s se how long this unit will last. My old one, EX8000 just lasted 2 years.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It’s just Meh I haven’t noticed much improvement using this WiFi mesh booster paired with my AX8 WiFi modem. The sad part is my house is only 2,500 sqf. When I run the speed test in my AX8 I’m hitting around 350mbps but on average my EAX80 is between 60-100mbps. I sort of hoped the whole setup (AX8 EAX80 costing around $900 would perform better together.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from GREAT Product! With two kids home doing remote learning, we needed more bandwidth. Prior to install he could only muster two bars of signal from the weak school-issued Chromebook. After simple installation my son noticed an easy doubling of speed and signal strength to his Chromebook. Critical to this was the ability to run hardwire cables from one of the four available Ethernet plugs on the back of the wifi extender right to his Chromebook. He also hardwired in his gaming computer and got a 50% improvement in graphics speed, making a huge difference in his gaming and VR play. Moving all of his devices onto the wife extender also gave the rest of the family more bandwidth to work with, increasing our speed as well. With three gamers and me working from home sometimes, this wifi extender definitely packs a punch. Overall, a great product that works very well for us.

It is easy to setup wants to utilize mesh technology which doesn't play nice with devices dedicated to 2.4 features. WiFi. Overall very mediocre device quality does seem good and easy setup are pluses. Bottom line their are alot of better choices for performance out there and definitely ones with more bang for the buck. That is why I rate as mediocre pluses easy setup and appears as quality item and if you want mesh technology this is for you range is not impressive and compairs with way less expensive extenders.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love Better Tech This NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi extender was exactly what we needed. We had tried another brand but it did not come close to doing the job. Right out of the box in less than 15 minutes this was up and running. Extended my WiFi 200’ up to my mom’s house. Now we both get fast internet at a fraction of the cost.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Decent - 4 Stars *This review seems to only let me give 5 stars; this is a 4 star review* The Nighthawk does a great job of receiving a wi-fi signal, but then it drops off quickly when you get even 10 or so feet away from it. You have to hardwire to it to fullly benefit from what it can do.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Life saver!!! I didn’t think using a Wi-Fi extender was going to be much help but I was definitely wrong! So a little background I live in the basement and I’m a casual gamer. I NEED decent enough speeds to be able to play some fps games without getting any type of latency issue or lag. Before this extender I was hitting 10-29 mbps and that’s with a 400/400 internet speed plan. Suffice to say my gaming experience wasn’t always good. Now that I’ve got the Nighthawk EAX80 though this internet speeds have hit as high as 380 mbps! That’s a crazy difference and my new gaming experience is a total 180. I’m so happy I got this!

The computer will not stay connected to the extender which is right next to my PC, and I have to enter the security key to connect back to it. It will stay connected to it for 30 sec and then disconnects and connects to the router which has a very weak signal. Reset it and still does it.

Unfortunately the internet quality went way down . Though this internet booster is a tad bit more expensive than others it had great reviews. Did have some difficulty connecting it so I had to unplug my router and booster and start all over. Once it did connect though internet was smooth sailing . We have 2 PS5, a meta headset, 6 phones , and 3 laptops/computers. None of which are slow anymore and can be used simultaneously.

I was still disappointed and the coverage I was getting in my rather large home so I purchased my first extender made by Netgear and was equally disappointed by the results from that. I followed directions carefully and consulted with their help desk to be sure I hadn't done anything wrong. Long story short, I ended up returning the extender and depend on just the basic modem and router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great match for CAX80 I have the netgear nighthawk modem router (cax80) for my gigabit Xfinity cable internet service. The modem router worked well but I had trouble finding an extender that worked well with it. The EAX80 works seamlessly with the CAX80, easy install using the nighthawk app, one network name, no issues (besides the app being wonky and saying this don’t work or aren’t updated then saying nevermind everything is fine or saying it cant find my extender but the actual device seemed to be connected then I close out of the app, open it again and oop the extender is connected and everything is fine - that type of thing). Great extender for the cax80 modem router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy and Powerful I previously had a plugin extender from another brand, however, when moving around the house it would drop signal while connecting to another signal. It also just wasn't powerful enough. Enter the Nighthawk. The longest part of getting this running was waiting for the updates. I was up and running within 15 minutes and the difference was immediate. I run google fiber and have a mesh extender and with this added on to the network I have 100% signal everywhere I go in the house (3100sq ft) including outside on the patio. The wife sometimes takes work calls outside and previously it would lose wifi signal, but not anymore. She came in after a meeting and said,

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quick, easy setup This ranger extender had a very quick and easy set up especially with the Nighthawk app. There is really only the extender and plug in the box so there is very little possibility of messing up. My only issue, and why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, is that I originally was going to try to connect using WPS but I could not find the button for it anywhere. I only found the button after I had completed setup using the app and then the button lit up and I was able to see it clearly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Wi-Fi 6 range extender I purchased the Nighthawk EAX80 Wi-Fi mesh range extender to upgrade an aging Netgear EX8000 setup to WiFi 6. The setup was super easy, and by using browser-based setup instead of the app I was able to change the Wi-Fi name and other specific settings easily so that my extended network has a different SSID. The default is a mesh network with the same SSIDs as the main network so that you can freely move from one end to the other without losing connection, which is probably the best setting for most people, but I had specific needs. The range and signal strength is impressive; my EAX80 is about 70 feet from my main router yet I still get solid 5GHZ connectivity with no dropouts and very good throughput

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent range and speed I owned a competitor's WiFi extender that plugged into a wall outlet. My IoT devices that were installed on the exterior of my home, struggled to connect with an inadequate quality signal. So, I bought an EAX80 even though I was a little concerned about the price point and the fact it wouldn't hang from an outlet but would need to be placed on a flat surface. After using the new extender for over a month, neither of those is a concern for me anymore. The range and speed I get with this product are phenomenal. I can go about fifty yards outside and still have a decent WiFi signal. I'm very impressed and would recommend this product to anyone. Best!

It provides excellent service throughout our home. Start up guides were very helpful to make the transition pretty easy. Thank you NetGear.

I had to do a factory reset and decided to configure it using a wired connection to the Xfinity router and login using the assigned IP address and that seem to work for me. Six hours later, the Xfinity router lost it network connection and somehow lost the both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz connection to the EAX80 and had to repeat the process again to reconfigure the EAX80. It has been working now for about one month with any issues.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good overall Good overall extender. There are issues with the GUI/App, and sometimes firmware updates cause it to misbehave, but once working it provides very good extension coverage (using it with the AX8 WiFi 6 router).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from EAX80 Rocks Switching between WiFi networks in your home or workplace is such a drag. The EAX80 resolves all that drama. I set mine up as an access point and the performance is astounding. The only element preventing a five star review is that the access point setup was bumpy. Now that it is configured, it is working amazingly well. Highly recommend.

Modem is in my office at one end and put the Range Extender 3/4 of the way to the back of the house. We are now able to use 5g reception for the entire house. And a solid 2g on the outside patio and front porch. Easy setup with the cellphone APP. Took a day for me to figure it out and test the best spot. It is rocking now! Thanks NETGEAR !

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Helpful but not amazing The setup was a nightmare. Per the directions it should’ve been quick and easy. However, it took about 4 hrs of doing the steps over and over (nothing done differently), and restarting the unit multiple times before it finally worked! Now that the unit is up and running; I had to sign back into our network, on all devices, before anything would work. (Forget network and then sign back in). That being said the signal strength on the extender says it’s the best connection possible but I haven’t noticed much of a difference.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very quick install and good performance I have a large house and the basement is one giant WiFi dead-zone, with the exception of a couple of small areas. I initially purchased the EAX80 to extend the reach of the wireless router provided by my ISP (Comcast Xfinity) - and then used it to extend the reach of the Netgear CAX30S I purchased to replace my ISP's router. In each case the EAX80 connected to the router easily and provided fantastic WiFi to the entire basement. The Netgear Nighthawk phone app made the setup process a breeze and provides great insight into both the router and extender's configuration, as well as connected clients.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to install / Great coverage! The Netgear WiFi 6 Mesh Extender was incredibly easy to install and it’s greatly improved the coverage in my house. My main WiFi router is downstairs in my home office, but I needed an extender to provide additional coverage for the tv, game consoles and WiFi reliability for my son’s laptop so that he could do homework in his bedroom upstairs. While we had medium reception in certain parts of the house, there were spots in the dining room that were really low. The mesh extender increased the WiFi strength throughout our entire household to maximum strength, and everyone is happy. I can monitor the router and extender through the Nighthawk mobile app (iOS), and it’s great. 5 star product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from WiFi6 extender in a mixed network In my situation a complete adoption of wifi6 was not an option as I am with an Internet Service Provider that provides a managed DSL gateway/router which is not available yet in a WiFi6 version. Adding the Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender (EAX80) has significantly improved our antiquated DSL internet experience by providing better wifi handling of the growing number of devices connected. Prior to adding the EAX80 we would have to reset the ISP provided managed DSL router periodically to resolve connected without internet issues found on many devices on the 2.4Ghz channel. Most likely this issue was related to deficiencies and limitations of the ISP DSL gateway/router; of course being ISP managed didn't help since our customer portal has very limited tools for managing and diagnostics. Since adding the extender we have not had to reset the DSL modem to resolve connected without internet issues as before and it appears to have improved internet stability to all wifi connected devices on our network. The big takeaway is that you can gain benefits of wifi6 in a mixed wireless network even if you can't switch over completely by adding a Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender in the interim. Additionally the ability to use the same SSID via the extender makes for a more seamless and convenient way to connect and stay connected while roaming too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better Than Expected. Life Changing. I had to suffer at home far away from my router stuck at less than 7 mbps upload and even worse download. I get up to 300 up and 30 download. I can actually stream and play online with friends with no hindrance. Better than the tp link wifi extender that I had. I 100% recommend NETGEAR.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome WiFi Extender This WiFi Extender is Awesome. It has increased my Internet speed, range, and strength throughout the entire house. Initial Setup was a little bit of a headache. I had to connect a Cat5 cable to the WiFi Extender from my PC in order to get everything installed and Setup. For some reason when trying to do the Setup Wirelessly it kept saying unable to located WiFi Extender. So if you have any issues trying to get it to Setup Wirelessly. Try connecting a Cat5 Cable and then you shouldn’t have any issues with the Setup.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid connection! Just what we needed I read a lot of reviews before buying, and glad that I purchased this extender! Using this extender with Spectrum 1G modem and router (though I only pay for speeds up to 500 mbps). Setup process was straight forward, though I had to call customer service at one point because I think I skipped a step. They were very helpful and able to walk me step by step through the process! Our home is single story 1500sqft, but we were looking to extend our wifi range to our ADU (Additional dwelling unit) that is above our detached garage. We rent out this space and wanted better connectivity (signal was weak with current router in the back house). The garage is about 20 feet from the house and the second story living space is about 450 sqft. The range extender gives us solid connection all through the ADU and covering our entire garage and back yard! Very happy with this purchase at only $250. Now my whole family, and our guests, can stay connected with high internet speeds on tons of devices. On any given day, we may have up to 30 devices or more connected between our home and our ADU (Phones, tvs, computers, smart devices, thermostats, cameras, game consoles, you name it)! I would recommend to anyone looking to extend their wifi range! God bless you all in Jesus name!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Used with Spectrum 1g router We bought this to help cover our guest house which is about 25 feet away from the main house, above a detached garage. We have fast wifi, but the connectivity at the furthest point (about 50 ft away) was very weak. After setting up the extender in the same room as the router, we then moved it to the guesthouse to help cover the range. I had to contact customer service for troubleshooting the initial setup, but I was able to get it resolved very quickly with the help of their professional techs. This extender really helps cover our whole property now! About 0.75 of an acre, two-story house, with over 2k sqft of living space covered! We use Spectrum with a 1g router, though we pay for speeds up to 500mbps. On average we were getting around 150-200 before adding the extender, and now we are seeing closer to 400mbps on a good day with solid connection in all living spaces! Very fast for what we are using it for (currently only 4k streaming, no major gaming). This router helps cover multiple devices at the same time with virtually no lag. Recently I checked with guests staying, we had over 12 devices connected at once and no change to our speed or connection. This was at least 4 phones, smart watches, computers, two TVs, and a baby monitor. Just pull the trigger on this one and pay the extra few bucks, you'll be satisfied with the quality of this product and the customer service support paired with it as well! The spectrum router is nice, but I plan to eventually purchase a nicer Nighthawk router to pair with this extender, so I'm no longer renting the Spectrum router. God bless you all!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Wi-Fi extender that mostly works This NETGEAR mesh Wi-Fi extender works, but I’ve got to insert the caveat that it’s working is maddeningly and intermittently inconsistent. Its Wi-Fi signal seems to conflict at times (my guess) with the Wi-Fi signal from our NETGEAR Nighthawk router. Moving the extender around to find a sweet spot has helped but only until unpredictably it doesn’t. Mercifully, it’s worked consistently now for the past week.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great performance and easy to set up I purchased this product to extend the WiFi signal to areas of my house that are farther away from my router and didn’t get great signal. My video meetings would always lose signal and it was impacting my ability to work from home. Now I’m getting great speeds and for the most part, everything is working smoothly. I have had a few connectivity issues that last for 1-5 minutes where I cannot get any signal. Then, without doing anything, the signal is restored. This isn’t a daily occurrence and I’m not sure what causes it. It could be my ISP and not the extended, but it’s only happened since installing the NightHawk. Overall the benefits far outweigh the very minor hiccups I experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Strong, Reliable Extender NETGEAR’s Nighthawk WiFi Extender EAX80 has been an excellent addition. For years, I have struggled with poor signals in the room that I initially wanted to turn into an office. I tried a number of devices, but none seemed to keep a steady internet connection so I had to settle putting my office elsewhere. With NETGEAR’s EAX80 Extender, I am not only able to connect in this dead WiFi zone, but I am also able to enjoy fast internet speeds that not only allow me to work comfortably, but also enhances the area with additional connectivity for my household’s various mobile devices. Installing the EAX80 Extender was also quick and convenient using NETGER’s app on my smartphone. Compared to the cost of what a typical internet service provider charges you to provide you with panoramic WiFi service, I also found the EAX80 Extender to be considerably affordable.

However, the channel for 802.11ax kept getting automatically changed and connection speeds were dropped so I had to return one so I got a router which I switched to AP mode. Sadly, I’m seeing consistent issues with it losing connection, not recovering, and on devices connected via wired connection DHCP issues. This could be a good product, but these issues need fixed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gets the job done I have an XR 1000 upstairs. Needed a little more range downstairs where all my streaming devices are. Works perfect especially if you have it plugged in directly to your streaming devices through the ethernet wires. The only problem I have is still doesn’t reach one of my ring cameras in front of my garage the range isn’t that good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best range extender! I have been on a long search for the best range extender. I have bought several different devices with the same result, “A weak signal or the range was to short”. After much research and comparisons I went with the nighthawk and must say this is worth every bit you spend on it. It is a tad pricey but if you want the best signal and the most coverage this is the device to purchase. It’s easy to set up, and makes all my devices from phones, laptops, wireless printers, tablets and gaming consoles ultra smooth at a high speed. A must buy!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best gaming purchase I’ve made I can’t use a wired connection for gaming due to the distance from our router. I tried different extenders and power line connectors and all were a waste. Finally I decided I’m just gonna spend the money and if this doesn’t give me a better signal nothing will. I wish I’d bought this months ago. It’s incredible, the setup is insanely easy and convenient through the app. Just plug and play. My internet speed is now faster from the other side of the house than it is connecting to the main router just a few feet away. This one may actually be more than I need and others are listed on the site for quite a bit less but if you want an extender that will 100% get the job done, you found it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from You have chose the wrong device OK so I see people are having a hard time with their routers. I would like to first of all say these products are absolute beasts if you have the right devices. If you look at the specs above this you find a number "802.11 ax". Not very devices support this. If you have relatively new devices they most likely support "802.11 ac" wireless networking.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not worth the headache Purchased 3/2020 (3mo is a good trial period), paired with Netgear Rax80 (have kept firmwares up to date, in Smart Connect) so I could offload my NAS and other devices on a different circuit breaker. I live in a house so radio interference is not significant. At times (several times a week), unable to connect with my router so my TV, cellphones lose wireless, which is it's main purpose. Firmware (1.0.3.88) is simplistic, has not been updated since I bought it so even if I wanted to route all my wireless devices to my router rather than this dysfunctional extender, I cannot. I can't even set a static IP on it (which would be nice for a NAS). Have tried FastLane to no avail and FastLane in the end hinders the system as not all home devices are 5ghz. It is not the router or my ISP as once this extender was pulled off, have had no issues. In the end, for $250, it fails at its basic function which is reliable range extension (even when pared to the same brand of router!) and for the price, would expect to be able to customize it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 66% speed decrease Took several hours to set up. I kept getting “incorrect password” notifications when connecting to my established WiFi network during setup of the extender. Expect 1/3 the normal internet WiFi speed when connected to this extender (I got full speed when connected to my AX12). This range extender is a headache. For $250 I expected way better from Netgear. You’re better off using the “Smart Connect” feature (if your router supports it) to extend the range of your WiFi network. I wanted 5ghz signal for the backyard but the hassle and decrease in WiFi speed are not worth it. $250 is too steep for the problems this system introduced.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Much better than the router The title says it all. I have Xfinity service with a landline phone so was limited in modem/router selection. The Motorolla 8733 I bought has a strong signal range of about 15-20 feet. I paired the range extender and have good service throughout my house now. A few problems at first, that were related to the router (it kept dropping the connection to the nighthawk). That seems to have cleared up and everything is working fine. I have good signal strength, seamless changes as I move through the house, and it was easy to set up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Decent extender Bought this product because the range on my spectrum provided equipment wasn’t reaching all rooms in my house. Setup was easy and painless and my WiFi network reaches the full house now. Reason I wasn’t 5 stars was the WiFi speed is a little slower than I’d hoped. The signal through this device is about 40% lower than the WiFi speed I get in areas the main signal reaches. I’d have hoped to have less loss, still works well but if it was closer in speed it would be perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Terrible technology I have had nothing but problems using the EAX80 with the RAX40. I have opened 8 cases with netgear support, and they always just say to do the same steps. Nothing has solved the problem. Here is a summary of my experience: 1. My RAX40 router works fine when it is operating by itself. 2. Once i have the EAX80 configured and turned on, that is when all of the trouble begins. I have to constantly reboot the router and the extender and/or my mobile devices are constantly losing connection. I have asked Netgear to replace these with a model that will actually work, but they have yet to respond. I recommend looking at a different system that has a better chance of working for you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Unfortunate disappointment I love my Netgear Night Hawk AX120 router and Night Hawk modem. I had equal excitement for this range extender to provide additional range and hard wire access points. Setup and maintenance on the Night Hawk app has always been fast and effective. Unfortunately the range extender has not provided the same experience. Setup was unintelligible. The app setup was 90% complete then could not proceed. After 2 hours on the phone it was explained that the extender was setup. It was connected but the app wasn’t working and I needed to just “trust” it was working. It was further explained the app was broken and would not allow me to control the extender, they said this is a known issue with no timeline for repair. No functionality exists to run speed tests identify what is connected or control the extender. I am to just blindly trust the $200 extender is working flawlessly. Well, that’s been difficult, since adding the extender I am getting poorer performance in my network and with no app controls there is no way to diagnose of fix the issues. I am left frustrated because I don’t even know how to remove it from my network since the app is broken. I effectively broke a $1,000 network setup with a $200 upgrade. The only reason it is a 2 star review is because I have to restart my 5 star network three times a week now. it’s still an impressive network when working properly. But that seems to be a rarity now. 0 star review for the extender. 5 star for modem and router. 2 star for the performance of my network now.

The installation was flawless but the result was that internet speed was actually reduced 60 to 80 % of what was possible using the existing modem/router without this extender. Tech support did try to help but in the end could not help or explain why speed was so much reduced. Had to return the unit and am left to see about another solution. Pretty disappointing all things considered.....product definitely does not approach the marketing hype.

Tomorrow I’m back with starting the day paper clip resetting the system and hoping it might actually work. I have three of these and the only one that partially functions as an extender sitting 20 feet from the RAX200 router. It has never worked as advertised. My old Orbi system was faster and more reliable. Thankfully the router works as a stand-alone device but even as the top of the line product, it needs extenders to get coverage. The system just doesn’t work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Wireless Extender I was using a powerline adapter in my home because I know wire is better than wireless. One of my powerline adapters failed. I know this externder is expensive. I was skeptical of it. I installed it, upgraded the firmware. I was absolutely blown away by the speed and the stability of the connection. I a mso glad I bought it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast but initial issue with signal 8 feet away My second attempt of setup has been stable so far. Fast. Initially setup, indicators all white. Moved to another room, white. Sometime later, turned amber. Moved back to room with wifi router. Showed amber yet less than 8 feet away, no obstructions. After connecting with nighthawk app and reconfigure, moved to same room as before and has been solid for several days.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smart connect = Dump Connect My network map: RAX200 tri-band router + Oribi Outdoor tr-band extender + EAX80 DUAL-band extender. The Orbi Ouder requires channel > 100 for backdoor connection. BUT, When using "SmartConnect", the RAX200 constantly switch between channel 43 and 153 as backdoor channel for Orbi Outdoor ==> Poor connection. The EAX and Oribi Outdoor constantly decides to take output of the other as its input channel ==> Two extenders "short-circut" connect to each other without the data transmitted from the RAX200 router ==> Drop connection all the time. There should be a firmware upgrade to make "Smart"connect becomes smart ==> Should have a way to distinguish "Extender" device and have a fixed backdoor channel for them depend on the requirement of the Extender.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Almost Great First, I bought the nighthawk router to go with the mesh extender. They both were easy to set up with the help of the app. My one problem is you can only connect to the router via signal (not ethernet cable if you want to use it as a booster. I called tech support and they said if I wanted to connect with an ethernet cord then it would act as an additional router. That is not ideal when you have numerous devices that are all controlled from your phone that connects to them through your router. I set it up as an extender because I wanted my phone to have access to all my wireless devices in the home. The now is that occasionally the mesh extender will randomly disconnect from the router and will not reconnect unless I turn off the extender and then turn it back on. I wish if it lost connection for whatever reason that it would search for the signal and reconnect. Disappointing for $250. However, when it works it works great!!! I would have given 5 stars if it stayed connected or allowed me to connect via ethernet cable. Also, I would have given 2-3 stars if it was what I had the majority of my devices connected to. But it is in the basement so it is only a minor inconvenience thus the 4-star rating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I really wanted to like it After purchasing Rax200 my confidence in Netgear was at all time high. Sadly this repeater pales in comparison. The set up was quick and painless but it doesn't do well what it's supposed to be doing. Both my 2.4 and 5ghz networks are being extended - but the speed is disappointing. I have a 1gb fibre connection. Rax200 covers the entire house so there was never really a need for that repeater but I still bought it because I wanted a few devices in the living room to be connected through Ethernet and I also wanted to improve the coverage in the garden. The range is impressive but I only get half of the speed I get with let's say a mobile phone comparing to connecting it to my third band (additional 5ghz network) not being repeated by the extender. Without extender connected I would get steady 500mbps on my iPhone (not wifi 6) both in my bedroom upstairs (where the router is) as well as the living room downstairs. With eax80 in place connecting to the 5ghz network both upstairs and downstairs gives me around 250mbps. That's correct. I could be standing next to my router - the very same one offering me 500mbps and still getting the slowed down connection. This makes me feel my phone is actually still connecting me to that band of my wifi through the repeater despite me being right next to the router. This is of course a deal breaker for me because it all amounts to spending money and actually making the network slower. I still hope that the premise of being able to be seamlessly transferred from router to repeater depending on location would happen with a future update. The way it stands now it definitely does not live up to the promise made in the marketing of the eax80. I would probably recommend it to people who have signal dead spots in the house because in that situation getting half the speed is better than having no coverage at all. For me the better purchase would probably have been their switch that I would connect with the router via Ethernet cable (I just didn't want to drill the walls). It would have been much cheaper option with - gigabyte connection readily available for all the devices connected downstairs (tv, nvidia shield etc). The good: easy to set up The bad: only getting half of the speed comparing to connecting from the same spot in the house directly to a router, the premise of moving seamlessly between router and repeater depending on proximity is pure sci-fi Do yourself a favour and try rax200. Maybe you will find out that you don't really need repeater in first place (one of my rooms had a really weak signal with my old Netgear router and now gets full coverage and speed - as long as I don't try to repeat that band over eax80. Overall this repeater is a disappointment but I'm gonna let it slide on the back of astonishing performance from its smarter cousin - rax200

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Money wasted.... I bought this product around 25 days ago, i used it with nighthawk XR500 performance terrible, i have gigabit internet, wifi performance on the router around 500 download 330 upload, connected to extender rarely 50 download 10 upload really unstable connection. Distance between router and extender 9 meters, no wall in between positioned router at the first floor and extender second floor Both in the stairwell... Suggested to buy XR200 AX12 because “officially “ they are designed to work together.... Today i received the XR 200 pairing done.... same terrible performance. 1st of MESH there is nothing, it should be clearly advertised with which product the extender it will works MESH! I positioned the router and extender to be in visual line in the stairwell, when you go to first floor the router is too weak but the switch to the extender it doesn’t happen, so you lose connection.. I tried 2 ipad 2 smartphones and a laptop, same result connection lost... If you consider the cost vs performance, this extender it is an absolutely no buy!! According my experience what is advertised and what is reported it is not happening at all! It is a major disappointment, tomorrow i will try to pull a cable from router to extender using it as access point, if that was the solution to be used there were on the market far mach better access point far less expensive. Netgear I’m really sorry never again, those are my last product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid but room to grow The app caused more issues than hardware it’s self bight hawk app while made to be simple could provide more in-depth options as well suffers from some connectivity issues finding extender took me about week to get it hooked up right between first doing it through wps and not having it synced with router in the app then wanting it snyced and resetting the extender and final after many failed attempts getting it to work. I give it 3-5 would been 4-5 but connection issues demand minus 1 and signal power could be greater capacity or more inline with ax12/8 router full product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Disappointing wifi extender I spent some time researching this wifi extender. The one wifi name looked like a nice option. Unfortunately, it doesn't work so good. My laptop wouldn't connect. Support told me to use different network names for each device. I renamed my router SSID so I could keep the extender name as it was. The extender is closer to the wifi devices needing the connection, and they were already setup for this network name. I had to reconfigure the wifi extender then as the router SSID had changed. After going through this, not much changed. My My laptop still requires plugging into the LAN. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for support to call me back. Got disconnected over an hour ago, and I gave my call back number to all four people I talked to. Very disappointed!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Technically functional Note: I have a nighthawk router. I hardlined my wifi extender from the router. I did set up new wireless access points on the wifi extender. The UI is a little clunky using the genie desktop app and even the nighthawk app mobile app. Like it shows the connection is there for me as an extender. But some functionalities that I would expect aren't. Plus it just recognizes the extenders as devices and ip or Mac addresses. Which just doesn't make sense to me on the network map.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wifi extender experience I ended up re-registering my nighthawk extender after a router upgrade. I've actually used the extender for over a year and it works well with all the obstacles our house has for the signal to get around. I do wish it covered the area a little better but like I said... obstacles. A good product nonetheless.

The biggest problem was finding an out of sight location. It works great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from No wired backhaul makes kills usefulness I have had some modest results - lots of disconects and sub-par switching from router to extender. I had hoped - assumed- that this extender would support a simple wired backhaul for the Mest with the RAX120 (or another nighthawk router - but nada! The only way to make this work is to set this up as a separate AP which kills the whole mesh (and same SSID) concept. Too bad. How can Netgear 'forget' about Wired Backhaul ?!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mesh Range Extender (EAX80) So far the unit has been very helpful. I have a Nighthawk x10 that provides coverage for the entire home, it does a pretty good job. I do have a dead spot in the basement and low-signal in the kitchen. Kitchens and baths typically have a mold/water resistant drywall which wreaks havoc on a wifi signal. I installed the EAX80 in the basement under the kitchen and it helped. Boosted signal dramatically and increased download speeds from ~40mbps upto ~150mbps.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Total upgrade I was using an older model wifi extender in my house that wasn’t a mesh router and it worked just ok. But the real hassle was that I had to select a different WiFi just to connect to it which was a real pain. With the Nighthawk WiFi mesh 6 range extender I not only can walk from room to room without worrying about switching between WiFi signals but it actually increased the speed on the other end of my house just from upgrading for the older/outdated WiFi extender. I would definitely recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great with Nighthawk RAX120 router!!! Pairs great with the Netgear Nighthawk RAX120 router, considering they are both dual band. I now get blazing speed throughout my entire house. I would recommend using the web UI for setting up the EAX80 extender, since the Nighthawk app setup process initially bottlenecked my 5 GHz band. The "Smart Setup" feature in the web UI removed the bottleneck. Setup of the AX8 extender took a little longer than the RAX120 router, but it was definitely worth it in the end. I now have an amazing wifi network!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great booster It’s like supercharging your connection it is awesome, especially if you wish to hard wire other devices in the room where you have this extender. You don’t have to run a long wire from your primary router. Great addition to my Netgear network. It also helps if you are a gamer I have the Xbox series X and it helped once I added this device and I hard wired it in. If you don’t understand what it does exactly in layman terms it is basically a bridge to your other devices that have weak connectivity or are too far away from where your router is currently position in your house this device boost the area of coverage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Device But Setup Leaves Alot to Be Desired The NETGEAR EAX80 was a good investment! Set-up was not easy, however: there is an inconsistency among online instructions, "quick start" literature instructions that comes with the device, and the NIGHTHAWK App on how to successfully setup this Extender. The instructions are not user-friendly and not consistent across the different platforms available for to the consumer for self-serve assistance. Thanks to the Complimentary Customer Service available during the first 90 days of device purchase, I was able to obtain "human" support on the 2nd night of my attempt to setup my Extender. An agent was able to walk me step-by-step in order to get the AX80 Extender working. Were it not for the challenging setup, I would rate this Device Five Stars.
