Rated 5 out of 5 by from Netgear Router Great product but I don’t like that you only get 90 day phone support. I like the one year warranty on the hardware. It has great throughput and the WiFi radio is very strong. Overall A- wish the nighthawk product line had more phone support.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it First, I’m not the most tech inclined guy. Was just looking for a better router to handle the ever increasing WiFi device load. That being 5 Arlo security cameras, 2 laptops, 2 cell phones, two Ethernet connected laptops, and two smart TVs (and counting and throw in a WiFi connected printer. Sorry about the lack of technicality in this phrase, but “every device is faster”. Easily two to three times as fast.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great router I never leave reviews but this router is amazing! I have the 500 Mbps service and consistently get 580 to 590 Mbps on the other side of the house.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good I just got the unit so I’m still testing it. It’s pretty fast, even for non-WiFi 6 ready devices. On my iPhone X, I used to get around 400mbps in a gigabit internet, but this one gives me around 600mbps. However, I noticed it often disconnects from my devices for a few seconds. I hope this does not become a thing. Overall, I am pleased with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It has features! This router sure was expensive, here are some pros and cons: Pros: - Lots of features - Fast throughput - Good Range - 5Ghz band sometimes slows to a crawl (Under 2Mbps vs the normal 700+ I can get out of it or doesn't allow connections or disappears altogether. This is a pro because of the amount of added suspense that the buffering and stuttering adds to your favorite shows and movies. Will it pause again? When will it pause? The random switch between HD and 480p as the site desperately tries to keep up really makes you appreciate the higher resolution (something we often take for granted) -DHCP: Any router can automatically assign an IP address to your various devices, a basic core function of a router, but this one combined with the blazing fast reboot speeds, takes upwards of 10-15 minutes after a reboot to allow most devices to connect and get an IP which is another pro as taking a break from the internet can be a good thing, and you don't even need to worry, because it's got you covered. Don't even try to reserve IPs manually, because it knows you need that sweet break time, and it delivers! - It looks like a spaceship, so throwing it out of your window in frustration allows you to pretend a tiny alien ship crashed on your property, fun for the kids and adults alike. - Firmware updates - these are a pain to have to install so luckily they are a bit few and far between on this $400 router. Cons: Can't think of one, best $400 I ever spent as long as I can pair it with something that can...route...and use it as an AP that only sometimes drops the 5ghz band or slows down to a crawl. Stop looking and give your money to Netgear right now. However if you're looking for something reliable that doesn't take forever to restart, can perform basic core functions with speed, and don't need all the bells and whistles, you could probably just spend less money on another router, but this one looks like a spaceship, so... 2 stars, I would be more generous if it didn't cost $400

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Avoid at all costs! I never write reviews, but this is one of the worst products I have ever purchased. Like so many other people have mentioned, it randomly reboots multiple times a day. Based on other reviews and the Netgear community forum, this has been a known issue for a while without a fix. Support is of no help. For the price, the product should not have this issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from AX12 RAX120 Nighthawk - Don't buy it for the VPN! It seems fast so far, setup with the app takes longer than just logging into the GUI and doing it there. My issue with it, and why it gets a one star rating is that i bought it for a whole house VPN. They advertise it as a router that can encrypt all traffic on all devices connecting to your wifi so you don't have to do it from each device. (Not a site to site vpn). The problem? You can't pick your own VPN provider.... They lock you into only using PureVPN.....There are dozens of better VPN options, and what if we already subscribe to one? They force you to buy their VPN product. Well f that. This is getting returned if they can't unlock the VPN choices

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Do Not Purchase Nighthawk RAX120 is an inferior product for the money. Internet drops. Some devices don’t connect. Service is a joke. Same thing: unplug, down power, hard reset then directed to new tech and phone mysteriously disconnects. I’ve owned seven Netgear routers over the years but this Nighthawk RAX 120 and Netgear service are trash.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not reliable technology yet I now have 2 of the latest Net Gear WiFi 6 routers and an AX8 mesh extender. The routers lose synch regularly with the Spectrum cable modem and have to be rebooted a couple of times per day. I bought the 2nd one last week because I was outside the return period and could not get it replaced. I run a home based internet intensive consulting company and depend on reliable internet access. I have a dedicated Spectrum high speed business line and Spectrum has checked everything in their system including replacing their modem. The problem persists with the new router. I am returning it today and switching to another brand. I plan on replacing the AX8 extender as well since it won’t do a factory reset no matter how many times you execute the online instructions. It stays in the bridged mode and won’t recognize the new router. I’ll am very disappointed with the reliability of these units. I used a Net Gear Nighthawk AC version for years prior to upgrading to the WiFi 6 model. I do not recommend upgrading to these models as they appear to have built in reliability issues which drive you crazy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Satisfying upgrade for 1,500 sqft apt. Before buying the Nighthawk, I had a lot of issues and could not get close to reasonable wifi speeds on 1Gb fiber. My apartment has a lot of overlapping wifi signals and metal pipes or studs left dead spots. This solved that problem without adding a mass of ugly antennas to my living room. Setup was easy, and i was able to connect my backup drive to the highspeed ethernet to make the process go 5x faster than usual. I feel like this router has been the perfect upgrade for me, and i could not be happier.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Way better than what I had I bought this router because I raised my internet speed, and it’s one of few I could find that had a multi gig Lan port and not cost a small fortune. I looked into other brands of routers that had the multi gig Lan port, but none had the reviews and recommendation like the Netgear RAX120. It increased my speed from the router I was currently using but I don’t have a WiFi6 device with 4X4 capability to test the wireless output. I get almost 1400 Mbps wired on my 1200 Mbps service, and strangely enough some of the features didn’t work when I first started using it, but now they do just out of the blue. I did a firmware upgrade first thing so I know that wasn’t why, the features just showed up all the sudden. Anyway the only thing I’m not liking is how you set up QOS, they a pre-labeled I’ve not yet figured out how to assign my own devices for that service, but I’m sure I’ll find out how somewhere. I’m not a networking person, i was schooled in hardware but there isn’t much that needs to be set on routers these days, just the special features you may want to use, and this router has tons of settings and features.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from When it works it is a great router This is my second AX 12 router. My first one went out after about 18 months. It kept dropping my internet and then it would automatically reset into factory settings. It did the multiple times. I bought my second AX 12 3 days ago and after setting it up, I have had to reboot the router multiple times in order to have internet access. I have tried Tech support and they still have not been able to help fix the issue. I have been on hold multiple times with a case # with one of the support members dropping the call on me and never calling me back. As I said when the router works it is great, but right now I am extremely frustrated with the product. Linksys is starting to look really good to me again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product! I am very happy that I bought this WiFi 6 router. Once I went through the easy set up, I instantly saw how my WiFi speeds increased. I feel like I am finally getting for what I pay for from my internet provider. The app is also great! It lets you manage WiFi very good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Router For Gigabit Services This router exceeded all of my expectations. I am able to get gigabit speeds over WiFi from all of my WiFi 6 capable devices. I also have several devices hardwired through a separate switch with no issues. I highly recommend that the Netgear CM2000 cable modem be used with the RAX120! None of the routers I’ve used in the past have come close to this experience!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from You can’t get better at this price Considerable penetration through walls and increased distance over my N class router. My home is concrete and steel, it’s very difficult to get a router to cover more than a few rooms. This router reaches everything well with the exception of my furthest bedroom. The gigabit internet I have is also now reaching all my wireless devices which were idling around 400 mbps before. My desktop is screaming, with the 5gbps port I really get to see what my network chipset is capable of. You need to get into professional grade routers to beat this performance. Highly recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple, Powerful, And Impressive Range I recently purchased this router as an upgrade to replace my Nighthawk AC1900 that was about 5 years old. (Another great NETGEAR router that worked flawlessly. The RAX120 is a great looking router right out of the box. Easy to set up and install. I had the entire thing up and running in ten minutes. I had some issues with the suggested app they want you to download to install the router, and decided to use a browser to do it instead. Once it went through a few restarts and a software update, it was working flawlessly. All 32 of my connected WiFi devices from my AC1900 immediately recognized and connected to the RAX120, which I set up to use the same SSID and password as my old router. I then set up the guest network to run my 6 NEST security cameras on. Almost 40 devices running of this router for weeks now without a single issue. And the range is seriously impressive. I no longer need my NETGEAR EX8000 to get solid WiFi in the back of my 1900 sq ft house. I have full bars no matter where I go on my property. I am very impressed with this router and glad I made the purchase.

With this router being on the second floor, I can get 470 Mpbs Wifi on my first floor and 450 in my basement. Impressive numbers. I've had zero connectivity issues with this router once setup properly. I did need to uncheck AX WiFi in the settings to support an older laptop that couldn't see my network. I am guessing the network adapter needs a newer driver or possibly the router will fix it with firmware.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Challenging install but a great product I have had this router for a couple of weeks and so far its working great. Its hooked to a CM1200 modem and the wireless speeds are very impressive. The wireless smart connect feature works really well, connecting devices to both 5g and 2.4g automatically. The app is also very good and essential to getting to a successful install. My only compliant was the install process. It was difficult and time consuming. What I thought was a simple modem / router install turned into a 5 1/2 hour ordeal between Xfinity and Netgear. I was on the phone with Xfinity for 2 hours trying to get the modem working with Xfinity, then on the phone with Netgear for 3 1/2 hours getting the internet to flow through the modem successfully, then trying to get the RAX120 router to talk with the CM1200 modem. Given these are both Netgear products I would have thought they would talk intelligently with on another, not the case in terms of setup. After numerous attempts, including a firmware update for router and finally running through the install process once again with the app on my Iphone it worked. After setup its been running successfully and I can say this is a great product. Its very stable, fast, has great coverage in my large house and is able to easily handle more than 40 devices connected to it.

Will be purchasing the Nighthawk Mesh unit as well to have WiFi in the few dead areas I have and out by the pool. All in all I am very happy with my purchases and the Nighthawk systems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Router, But.... Initial setup was easy, but it took a call to Support to get it functioning properly. After an hour with the tech, which I couldn’t understand, I was able to get close to the speeds I was expecting. If you have an extra $100 to burn, go with the tri-band model. Overall good router, but definitely not worth the high price tag.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 802.11 AX The NightHawk AX12 (RAX120) incorporates the Qualcomm QCN5054 QCN5024 chipset and MU-OFDMA (Multi-User OFDMA). I have determined that OFDMA allows the Wi-Fi signal to be broken up into multiple Resource Units (RU) across to your multiple devices. Giving pieces of data to flow simultaneously, eliminating any one device priority. My current device environment does not include a supported 802.11ax device. Since upgrading to this new Netgear RAX120, my many Wi-Fi connected devices have seen a minimum of 20% increase to just over 50% Wi-Fi throughput and not once has my Netgear RAX120 discontent from my Charter/Spectrum modem. I am encouraged to see future firmware upgrades

Rated 5 out of 5 by from DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY This product is absolute garbage. I have just bought it but had nothing but trouble with it. I have to spoof the MAC address just to get it to work. If you're familiar with mac addresses only one can be in use. So when using the wifi (THE MAIN USE then you're screwed if the mac address from your phone or other device connects as it will constantly throw you off the internet. I have a far worse router from another company (apparently cant mention competitors in a review pffft) that works better than this piece of junk. all i had to do was plug it in and it worked AND its no where near the price/ capabilities of this product. i would expected this product to work after plugging it in for the outrageous price it has. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND NO ONE BUY THIS AT ALL. unless you like to spending countless hours trying to configure your mac address.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Serious Issues with this router This router is seriously flawed and support from Netgear has been nonexistent. Wifi 6 doesn't work on this router. Turning this feature on in the menus causes speed to decay. Over the course of 24 hours the speed will drop from 100% or your ISP speed down to <1mbps. Sometimes the speed will decay in as little as 30 minutes! I've spent countless hours on the phone with Netgear. I even tried two units to see if it was a hardware issue. This issue is well documented on amazon reviews and on Netgear's own forms.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nighthawk AX12, WiFi 6 So far, been about 2 weeks since setup, and it has worked flawlessly. It did take a little while to have everything working properly, not difficult just a little time consuming to get up and running. The app is also useful. Paid with the Nighthawk Mesh WiFi 6 Extender, and I have no dead spots in my house or my basement, allowing my WHOLE HOUSE to be on the SAME NETWORK seamlessly. Before this, I had to have a similar setup but with 2 different routers that made me create 2 different networks in order to reach my basement. This was a pricey setup, but its fast, fluent, and if it continues to work as well as it has thus far, then it will turn out to be a worthy investment. Would recommend.

More than three times the router automatically powercycled kicking everyone off. I got on with tech support to do some advanced custom changes to the configuration, so we’ll see whether that helps. So far my experience has been abysmal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome! Had continuous lag and disconnects while gaming and streaming using our Internet providers equipment. Thanks to the Netgear Nighthawk RAX120, these issues were completely resolved. This radio is a beast. It has a powerful processor, handles 12 streams simultaneously with ease, has the extended signal distance I needed. and uses Wireless 6 AX technology for the latest smart phones, etc. The Darth Vader Star Wars ship appearance is cool, too. It’s just Awesome!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Wifi Out There This is the best Wifi for any type of home: huge rooms, thick walls, and thousands of square feet. I bought this router to replace an old router that did not even reach my living. Admittedly, this router did. It is excellent for streaming movies on your TV, gaming on any system online (especially in tournaments), and calling and texting friends. Overall, this router is a 10/10, and I would recommend to anyone who has any problems with their home or office Wifi because this will resolve all of those problems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 2 BAD routers Will not give refund Both routers would crash and reboot 5 to 7 times a day, leaving the house with NO WIFI for about 2 or 3mins. Tec's kept putting the routers back to the previous firmware, which did help but would still crash about once a day. At some point tec's looked at the logs of the routers, it showed constant DoS attacks, which was leading to the crashes of the WiFi. I was then asked to get a NEW IP address from my internet provider. With in 2 sec of the NEW IP taking affect, the attacks started all over again, per the logs. I put a call into my internet provider, they came out and looked over and check out my system and also did some internal checking. I WAS ADVISED TO DISCONNECT the Netgear Nighthawk from my house as soon has possible. I put my previous router back in and NO MORE PROBLEMS I've asked for a REFUND and was told Netgear doesn't give refunds, but would be happy to send me a third router.

Network congestion was a real pain. I didn't know anything about wifi 6 until we were looking to replace our dying old router. The ability for our router to talk to several devices at the same time, has definitely helped congestion. Also, the 5Ghz signal can actually be used in the far corner of our house where previously the signal was too weak. We are very happy with our purchase, even if it is one of the pricier routers we've ever bought. In comparison to other wifi 6 routers on the market, the value seems right with this one.

It drops in and out at times., and loses connection to your devices. I feel that you have to reboot the router on occasion because it tends to lose connection to your devices. It will not let you connect back to the till you do so. Overall, you do get your money’s worth, but there are some issues that need to be resolved. With all the technology, can we get like a 3D map with proximity and strength of signal representations? Then be able to click on the individual devices and have the system recommend how to get a better signal. Example... Move device up two feet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good WIFI coverage, but app is limited This device has the advertised coverage, even reaching out to our guest house. I had hoped, though, that I could just replace my old AC Nighthawk product with this one by just naming the SSID the same, but that’s not the case. Also, I had to connect each home automation device individually, which was a pain. The app is fairly limited; I would prefer to have the advanced functionality there, too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Netgear RAX120 While researching the best routers for 2020 I came across some good reviews for the RAX120. After seeing this router, it even looks cool...Possibly resembling Darth Vader’s transport ship from Star Wars (Which by the way my wife said is the reason I bought this one. So I decided to upgrade to the new RAX120 from my 5 year old Netgear R6900 which has been a solid router until very recently when it started dropping WiFi and had to be reset about 3-5 times per day, and unfortunately, Netgear stopped firmware updates on this model. My family is heavily relying on the internet/WiFi during Covid, as my wife and I are both teachers and we have 2 kids in distance learning at home, reliable internet and WiFi is essential for my family. So far the RAX120 is performing well with increased UL/DL speeds, has not dropped my WiFi, and has better coverage than the R6900. Setup was very easy, and only took about 20-30 minutes. After 1 week of use I gave this router 4 stars. I would have given it 5 stars if it were not for the lack of “parental controls” or “Disney circle” which my R6900 had. In the parental controls it has a message which says to update, but the update doesn’t do anything. I was hopeful that it was going to install Circle. With Disney circle I was able to turn my kids WiFi off from the Circle app. As far as I can tell this router does not offer this feature so I was a little disappointed to say the least especially since this router is not cheap @ the $500 price point.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smooth, Fast, Secure I work in cybersecurity and I'm very impressed with the Netgear Armor integration for this device. I can't speak to the longevity as I only set it up this week, but the set up was very smooth through the app and the online portal. I have a 1300sqft townhome and I was running into weak zones in the opposite corner of the lower floor. We were getting 30Mbps max with the ISP BGW210, and with the RAX120 I'm getting 150Mbps minimum in that location. The router itself is pushing 940Mbps up and 935Mbps down, and 500Mbps to my HTC U11 on 5Ghz. Pretty impressive! The paired Bit Defender Total Security is also a great product, and I'm happy to see these two companies come together for a whole-home solution. This seems very minor, but I have the router in my bedroom, so the little switch to turn off the LED indicator lights is genius, thanks for the little things Netgear.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very unreliable In the 6 days I’ve had this router I’ve lost WiFi and had to reboot it three times, and had it completely reset on me, including erasing my static IP address, once. The speeds on my gigabit connection are great when it’s working, but I’m considering returning it for something else because I can’t rely on it to work consistently.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great WiFi 6 Device For anyone still using a WiFi 5 or below (AC, N, A-B-G, etc.) device, WiFi 6 is a complete game changer, and the new Nighthawk AX line is an amazing series to get you into WiFi 6. The Nighthawk AX12 specifically is a great router that is packed full of great features. Great job, Netgear.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Intermittent Rebooting Like what others have said this router is plagued by intermittent rebooting. Longest time I had without this issue was maybe 4 hours. Not only will does it drop your connection and reboot, but will continually do this until you disconnect power. Too many dropped MS Team meetings for me. I loved the speed, setup was easy but reliability is null.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice So in the middle of COVID-19, our router stops working. My guess is with everyone home and on device, our 2016 router decided to help the economy and go to heaven. I got this because it was all I could get that day at Best Buy. It is expensive. However, it is handling 26-29 devices daily and we have had no issues since install. Thankfully you can do setup on phone and the core mechanics are available via the app. Our usual modem budget is $200ish. This was an emergency purchase to allow everyone to do homeschool and for us to keep working from home. May not have been on our list, but it is working and keeping us working—so priceless?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best upgrade for the connected home Router was easy to install, set up and start using. Immediate difference in speed and range compared to standard issue cable router. Greater difference noted on AX capable devices. Where high quality video would sometimes buffer when several devices where attempting to stream simultaneously, it now streams seamlessly without any issue and videos start up sooner. Best upgrade I’ve made in recent times. 10/10 would recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Waste of Money Purchased AX12 to upgrade my old NetGear router after adding Ring doorbell and cameras to my wireless network. Speed in which this router communicated with devices was demonstrably slower than old router. YouTube videos on iPad were buffering and lagged to even open. Gaming computer became unusable due to the lag. Customer support was not able to resolve after 2 hours on the phone with them. They escalated my issue and have not received a call from them to resolve. I’m returning the device and will research alternative router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Non-existent Quality and Customer Service I bought this product less than a year ago, for the first 4-5 months it worked as it should but then it started dropping connections, would have issues connecting to devices upon startup and a myriad of other issues. Contacted "customer support" to request a replacement since we identified the router as the central issue. They walked me through a standard reset over the phone (which we had tried multiple times before then claimed there were no hardware issues so it must be a software issue, well lucky for me they could offer software support but there is an additional fee. There is no reason that there should be extra costs associated with servicing a warranty, there is no way to definitively rule out a hardware issue over the phone in a 10 minute conversation and a standard reset, and after having been a longtime Netgear user there is no reason for me to continue to support their products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Terrible Router was defective not sure what was actually wrong kept dropping the Internet spent six hours on the phone with tech-support After which they told me to return the product. Honestly I’ve used Netgear products over 15 years now and that’s the first time I’ve got a defective product. I was disappointed with all the trouble I had and the fact they would not compensate me or Discount substantially another unit, therefore I am going to try a different company’s router as I feel I’ve been a loyal customer of theirs and when I had a problem that cost me a true hardship they would not stand by me other then to say sorry. My time is valuable and my kids needed that router for school due to COVID. Not happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from NETGEAR Nighthawk AX6000 WiFi 6 Router (RAX120). So far, I hope to see the performance of my new router improve. Regarding installation (installing the app, etc.), I would not rate it as "easy" as advertised. More importantly, I've been surprised/disappointed by the frequency in the number of interruptions. Signal is normally restored after a few minutes, but is still frustrating! In fact, internet was interrupted just prior to beginning this email, then reoccurred before I was finished. The decision to replace my previous Netgear router (AC1750) was to accommodate more devices.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wow Had to replace a one year old AC1900 after a lightning strike. Only a 1800SF house. Working from home has us with (2 laptops, Aruba phone system, 2 wired desktops, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, (2) smart watches, 4 Apple TV’s, (1 tied to a full on wired home theatre with lots of switchgear), Denon receiver, and security systems. We hover between 20-25 devices as the day progresses. I used to be pleased with the 300 Mbps down/15 up. I had modest hopes this would improve the performance and I wouldn’t be disappointed for spending more. Wow. I’m now getting 850Mbps/45. I laid in hammock at the end of our backyard (~75’ away) and was getting 300Mbps on the WiFi only iPad running a Comcast speed test! The router is at the front of the house so it’s really ~90’ through 2 courses of brick and concrete block! Wired and wireless have seen a drastic improvement in speed, and coverage. I can place Bose portable speakers anywhere in yard and stream music. This router is savage!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Strong router Reliable router with great speeds. A problem I have had in my location, is other routers have dropped 2.4ghz consistently. While this one doesn’t drop the network, sometimes I notice 2.4ghz has been slower. With that being said, at least 5 other routers I have tried have dropped the network altogether, presumably due to the congestion. If the 2.4ghz could consistently be fast it would be perfect, but it may mostly be an issue of interference.

This has been by far the best option we’ve tried for amazing and extremely fast wifi though out the house. We previous tried the orbi mesh system and Google wifi that dropped multiple times a day.

This router is nicely done.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Welcome to the Fast Lane The time came for my old wireless router to send its last byte and I was faced with the dilemma of who should be the successor. After careful consideration and many reviews, the clear winner on paper was Netgear Nighthawk AX6000 wireless router.How would it do under my workload and house layout? To my delight, the AX6000 covers my entire house without any dead spots. I used to have 2 additional hot spots just to get coverage in my basement and bedrooms. I upgraded my internet service to gigabyte speed and was skeptical that I was going to be close to that mythical number. I went to the farthest corners of my house and was shocked and amazed that not only did I have a strong connection, but the speedtest I ran was closing in on the promised speed from my internet service provider. I cannot state enough on how satisfied I have been with the performance. Did I mention how simple it was to setup. Overall this experience has been the opposite of what I anticipated of a wireless router upgrade. Netgear AX6000 checks all the boxes for everything I wanted from a wireless router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great speeds, bad WiFi 6 performance I bought this router as the number of IoT devices in my house kept increasing (the main value proposition of WiFi 6). They all worked perfectly fine and were stable on my N600 router but my primary PCs dropped in speeds. I would get 30Mbps from my Comcast 150Mbps connection. Hence I decided to buy the AX6000. The speeds are now awesome, but every other day the router drops a random device from the network. Rebooting the dropped device or trying to manually connect does not work. Every time this happens, I need to reboot the router itself. I hope a future firmware update fixes this issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nighthawk RAX120 I bought the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX6000/AX12 (RAX120) wifi 6 router two weeks ago. My signal and streaming is way better. Including on 4K. Transferring files is also easier. Wifi bandwidth an and range has improved too. It is very noticeable. I got no service in my backyard. Now I get up to 3 bars thanks to the router’s 3500 sq ft of coverage. It was well worth it. Glad I bought the Nighthawk.

The last update gave a security feature, but at a monthly cost, which I will not pay for, especially that my last router gave it for free. In short, this is a high end, expensive, basic router. I expected more for the money that I paid.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from RAX120 Review I have wanted so much for this to be an amazing router (given the price paid for it), but it has really fallen below expectations. The biggest problem I have seen with this router is that every few weeks, the router just stops broadcasting on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, and all of my devices lose connection. I then have to power cycle the router to get it back up. It has done this regularly since I have owned it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Router I suffered for 3 months with inconsistent WiFi speed on a 300mbs ATT fiber connection. The wired connections were fine, but the ATT techs still replaced the modem/router twice to “solve” the problem. It didn’t solve the issue. They also suggested I purchase their $50 mesh extenders to help with coverage. The speeds continued to fluctuate between 220mbs and 5mbs. Rebooting the modem/router and all devices seemed to help performance for several days. Since the router was free, and I had purchased extenders, I was reluctant to buy a router. But I couldn’t take it any longer. I researched and learned about the WiFi 6 802.11ax protocol, compared about 10 products and bought the RAX-120. I’ve had it installed for 2 weeks and so far, it appears to have solved all my issues. My speeds are consistently between 250 and 350, with 18 devices attached. I have 2 devices that support WiFi 6 and expect to upgrade others. I use the iPhone app and website to manage the router. This is a terrific product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not reliable. I bought this from Best Buy in June when we moved to a new location. We have never had 1 gig internet speed before. Since we were paying for it, we wanted to be able to utilize it. Our old router was not rated at near that speed, so become "future proof," we choose this one. Wasted a good chunk of money. Connectivity has been horrid with dropped signals for the last two months. Customer service will not get back to me over the warranty. Finally just went and bought a cheap $200 Linksys mesh router system that is WiFi 5 and it worked brilliantly. Not a single dropped connection AND this cheap one comes with a 3-year warranty AND 3-year services included. Guess you can do that when you make a quality product. I legit feel like I was just scammed out of $500.... Unless something gives, I would never buy or recommend another Netgear product. Extremely disappointed.

Also have great signal coverage for WiFi in 3 story house with router in basement. Worth the money.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast! I have had good experience with Netgear products in the past, and decided to use this router. Not being a tech hero the Netgear line of products are some of the most user friendly devises to set up. Another question I had was would it cover my 3500 sq ft home? After downloading the Nighthawk app, setup was a breeze. I was able to retain my SSID, and password from my old router and use it. This was a big time saver for all the household smart devises around 20. Back to the coverage concern. Well there was none. This router is providing me upper level speeds of my internet provider anywhere in the house, 25 up and around 480 down. I even have link rates on some devises clocking in at over 1000 MBPS. Another bonus is being able to access my router remotely when away from home from the app. Also you get the 30 day trial of Armor which is nice for the added layer of security. Hands down this system is easy to setup, use, and is very fast. I would recommend the RAX120 to others.

Speeds have been extremely fast according to the APP. I updated the firmware remotely! That was cool. It looks a lot like a stealth bomber at 1/16 scale.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing for a few months now i have been researching what is the best router on the market and came across this GEM. I use to rent a Modem/Router combo from my internet provider which was garbage. even forking out a premium to get Gigabit speeds i would only see a fraction of that even when i was hard wired in. Since day one i have noticed dramatic speed and reliability across my home with no dead spots. hard wire i am getting speeds of 980 Mbps and on wireless i get 550 Mbps even from the farthest room from the router. Hands down this router has exceeded my expectation and highly recommend it. I know its a bit pricey but for the speeds and reliability that this router has provided in just a few weeks is worth every penny.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wifi Great, USB soso The wifi function is great, with strong signals, wifi 6 and great ipv6 support. It is easy to setup and everything works great. The only thing I am not satisfied is the USB sharing. This model has two USB ports, which would be great if it can support USB-printers. I just do not understand why it does not support printers, and it should not have any technical difficulties, as the old wifi 5 models supports. And if I look at the list of verified USB drives of Netgear router devices, I found that the verified USB drives of wifi 6 models are fewer than wifi 5 models. For example, WD Elements hard drive works with R7800 not RAX120. I have two WD elements hard drives, and both are not recognized by the RAX120. Hopping further upgrade of firmware will improve the performance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from the second one is working great!! The first Nighthawk AX6000 kept restarting. After returning it for a second one, we now have fast and reliable wifi. Our Nighthawk runs a small offer and we often have 20 computers, phones, printers and a TV running at the same time. The speed is fast and the signal is strong throughout the entire office.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not a Functional Router Out of the box this unit has been a disaster. It has connectivity issues and will disconnect from the Internet every 15-minutes or so. If you look at the Netgear Community section this is not an isolated issue. Working with tech support has yielded zero improvements. I am ready to throw in the towel and return this lemon and go with a different brand. I wanted a plug-in-play Router and this is clearly not the device for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amateur opinion — excellent Easy to drop in as a replacement for an existing similar but older competitor WiFi router...says ALOT. I do appreciate the Nighthawk smart app more and more each day, bonus is the speedtest module. Fact: Oldest son now tells me the WIFI is XBOX worthy at 45 linear ft away from router and he doesn’t need a drop line anymore? I picked this WIFI router mainly for reviews regarding larger houses...I live in a 6500sq/ft single ranch style house with the router exactly in the middle and at worst I get 3 bars outside the house within 15 ft of the exterior...excellent for guests and plenty of range to the man cave garage and our outdoor entertainment area. I connect our streaming devices and XBOX to the 5G and all else to the 2G...works for our household, we have yet to experience a lag, spike or issue one might attribute to WiFi. Online registration and support documentation is user friendly and informative. We have 21 devices connected with 2 being hardwired.

Styling is also great, it remind me of something that came out of a Star Wars movie every time I look at it. Rang, now this is the great thing about it. I though my last router had it but I was very much mistaken. Once I got the Nighthawk plugged in, wow! I have to say I was really surprised, I was still able to still get a single out in my street. All in all I must say that this router is top notch and I highly recommend it to friends/family and to whom ever may be in the market for a new router. ;-)

This router absolutely sucks, runs insanely hot, has terrible range, oh and if you want to use smart switching, don’t. Your devices won’t connect to a 5ghz signal unless you’re in the same room or within 10 feet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Netgear Nighthawk Now up and running, the Nighthawk is great. All my devices are running faster and more smoothly than when they were connected to our old router. However, I did have some difficulty with the initial setup. The directions did not clearly state that the cell phone with the Nighthawk app had to be cellular data off, Bluetooth off, and local hot spot off. Also not clear was that the old router network had to be shut off after switching internet connection to the Nighthawk. Finally, one of my devices (PC) did not "see" the Nighthawk and I had to conclude on my own that the lap top needed the latest wireless driver to connect to the Nighthawk network. So all in all the router is great, but having a more detailed setup check list would have saved me hours of work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exceptional Router I bought this router about a month ago but ran into the same problem the other reviewers had - dropped devices. I had upgraded the firmware and power-cycled to reboot. I think my problem was outlined in many of the reviews (dropped devices).. Rather than returning though, I decided to try their tech support (contacted through the app). An expert called me back with 2 hours and walked me through and helped me update the firmware (including a hard rest with the button in the back, rather than power-cycling). This seemed to fix my problem. Glad I did...great router...and great tech support!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Meets expectations! I have many IoT devices that I connect to remotely on a daily basis. In the past I've used everything to make sure there was connectivity across all devices. It didn't always work out as planned. Devices would drop off the network, and/or fail to connect. With AX12 I no longer have such issues. The AX12 also has such good range on its own that I no longer have to use Wifi extenders. A real nice convenience! The only improvement I'd like to see is NETGEAR installing the total BITDEFENDER security suite on the router. I have used this in the past and what it does is eye opening pertaining to network monitoring.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fastest WiFi Router tested I have a gig connection. I have tried/tested a couple dozen wifi routers. The most speed I could get out of them was 300meg (and that was a Netgear wifi router). This one has pulled the FULL 1G consistently over the test period (about two months). I would install this even in a small business environment. I would have to spend about $3K on a business router alone to achieve that kind of speed (we are talking reality here - not specs).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Have to reboot 1 to 2 times a week! Netgear provides the only 3.0 usb port where you can use Readyshare for your storage. This is what I like most about their product and deal with the reboot. Sometimes the 5g acts up only on one or two devices while the others stay logged on. It is inconsistent on which decice it may act up on, so you can't actually pin point the issue. Also, sometimes 5g drops and comes back on its on. 2.4g sucks, I won't even use it. I am rebooting this thing 1 to 2 times a week. I upgraded from the R7000 becuase it started self-rebooting after more devices were added. Speed is good, but signal strenght is weak in one spot in my house. I live in a 3 story with 1,300 sqft each floor. Router is on second floor, right rear of home, signal is weak third floor at front of home. R7000 had better range. I have 1gig fiber internet with ATT, I setup pass through on their router so the RAX12 manages the network. I am getting 600megs on S10phone and ipad on 5g. My other devices NICs do not support that speed but I hit about 450megs on them. No streaming glitches either and you can see the difference between 1080 and 4k streaming, but you better be on 5g. I would not recommend this router unless you catch a sale like I did or just want that ReadyShare feature, like I did. The rebooting gets old. However, I can remote manage and reboot with knighthawk app.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Massive Improvement This router is a massive improvement from my previous Netgear AC3200 nighthawk X6. While my old router worked great I was only getting half the internet speed I was paying for. Since upgrading to the AX12 I’m getting all the speed I’m paying for and more. I went from a constant 250mbps to 480mbps with just this router. The AX12 has a nice sleek design with the antennas hidden in the two wings that make it look awesome. Easy set up, true plug and play. Able to name the router the same as my previous model and same password had all my devices automatically connect to the new router and saved me the hassle of reconnecting everything. Would highly recommend this router to anyone that streams movies, plays games, or even just does online school.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worked great for about 3 months I bought this in April 2020 to teach from home. My daughter is in college and is attending classes at home. It worked great with both of us streaming classes until June. Then in July when only I was streaming I starting having issues. In August when we were both were back in school it got really bad with both of us losing connections. I contacted support thinking that the service contract I paid for would cover it. But was told that it did not. Apparently it does not cover anything but the hardware and in order to get them to cover the hardware, you have to pay over $100 for phone support for them to diagnose the problem. They insisted it was not the router, but my modem box that was causing issues, even though the cable company had already come to the house and determined it was the router. So now after less than 1 year of owning this piece of junk, I am having to purchase another router from a different company that offers better support. The router dies and reboots multiple times a week on it's own and the signal will only reach about 50 feet from it's location with decent speeds.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Old Apple versus new Netgear I was having serious problems with WiFi dropping in and out. I was cursing spectrum all the time but to be fair to them they came out twice to investigate with no real cause. Then the nice young lady grabbed a router out of her van and connected it and did multiple speed tests over time. The reliability was back. Next day I bought a netgear nighthawk and all of a sudden I need no repeaters in my house and the wifi is as solid as can be. One month on and it has been night and day. Fully recommend the product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great router - horrible installation!!! This is a great router with awesome range. My neighbor next door to me was able to piggyback off my wifi to get their new computer setup. Their home was a good 100 yards away with no signal blockage. Also, the Netgear router I was replacing was decent - but still had several dead zones in my house! No more dead zones with this one. It’s very pricey - but worth getting rid of the dead zones and the increase in distance. My only negative comments are with the install. I can normally install a new router in about 20 minutes - but this one was a HUGE pain in the a**. You have to use the Netgear IPhone app (for me and it wasn’t working properly to the point where I got SO FRUSTRATED with it I was almost going to return the router! And you HAVE to use this app to install it. There should be another option for installing other then the iPhone app. After 2-hours messing with the install it FINALLY took! I haven’t had any issues after the install. So hopefully it was just a Christmas Day “glitch” but ... it was a horrible experience!

It was the easiest process as the router changed the gateway settings on its own all I had to do was turn off the wifi on the gateway router from ATT. It recommended I leave the SSID the same with same password. I didn’t have to change any settings on the over 20 devices on the network and none had connections issues after the change either. I would definitely recommend this router.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Router The router works great overall, but gets hot and setting up the multi-gig has some issues. It says it cannot enable it in the settings, but on the device it says it’s active and operating. Currently, I’m getting around 900MB download speeds off the router, but with speed tests on multiple third party apps, the speed varies between 300MB to 600MB. The tests are done during low traffic times between 1-3 AM.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Disappointed but hopeful! Installed RAX120 over the weekend. Worked fine for a day or so and then started to notice that internet actions were hanging up. After several reboots and factory resets. Began to noticed that some wireless devices could not see the new router. Went to the community page and found that the same issue existed around June 2019. The solution was to turn off the “AX WiFi” option while a new firmware update is deployed. I did update the firmware to the “... .118” version (latest available as of 3/29/2020) when I set up the router but it did not seem to fix the problem. Turning off “AX WiFi” has solved my problems so far and, being a long time Netgear fan, I am hoping that Netgear realizes that this is still an issue and addresses this soon.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Whole New World Honestly I was the type of person that always believed that the closer the router is to your computer or whatever piece of tech you are using. So when I paid for 250mb from my ISP and only received 20mb I called them and complained , they told me to get a new router. I yelled at them and told them they are crazy and blamed them for shorting us on the connection. I moved my router to the room my computer was in but I still wasn’t receiving the 250mb that I was promised. I decided at that time that I was going to buy a router but not just any router , I wanted one that was so equipped with features that my ISP couldn’t not blame it on the router that I was still getting 20mb. But to my surprise , when I installed this AX6000 and did a speed test and I got 250mb. Not only was this beast of a router way better than expectations, it also was the easiest thing to install.

However, the setup was far too complicated and the Nighthawk App software turned-out to be the source of the problem.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from AX12 Ax6000 RAX120 I am a pretty tech savvy person, but not a professional. It took many hours over many days to finally get this to work on all of my devices. I was finally able to get it to work by disabling the AX feature, which was the whole reason I spent the money I did on this model. I realize I will be set for the future and as my devices are upgraded to support AX I can enable it, but I wish there was a way to use it on the devices that do support it in the meantime. It is still better than my old router, even with AX disabled so it is serving its purpose. Before buying realize you may have this issue if you use devices without AX (wifi6) drivers.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great range and easy setup I used to need to routers to get the range, security, and number of devices to run the house. The Netgear router allowed me to go to one with room to spare. The router app allows me to control the router with ease.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Router Router was easy to set up and seems to work pretty well so far only had it a week. Thought the range might be a little better than what it is but I may have to work with repositioning a little in the house.
