Rápido, efectivo y fácil de instala
Buen producto. Llego rpido, funciona muy bien y se instala con facilidad. Yo lo estoy usando como repetidor en otra zona de casa conectado por cable al router principal de Movista
Best router I’ve ever used!!
It has an app where you can check the speed and you can also block websites and apps on it, it also shows the speed of your Wi-Fi best purchase I’ve made
Works perfectly now.
Works perfectly. Like others I have read in these reviews I had problems connecting to the internet via ethernet but was able to overcome this by connecting to the mains via the supplied power supply.
Improved my speeds by double!
I recently purchased the NETGEAR WiFi 6 Router (RAX10) and have been quite pleased with its performance. I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars based on my experience.
In terms of Useful, the router has been a fantastic upgrade to my home network, doubling my speeds for both uploads and downloads. As an NBN customer, I have noticed a significant improvement in my internet speeds, and the router has consistently performed well.
In terms of Usable, I did encounter some initial challenges during the setup process, which required a call to my provider for assistance. The setup process may require some technical knowledge, so be prepared to spend some time on it. However, once the router was set up and connected, it has been very reliable.
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase of the NETGEAR WiFi 6 Router (RAX10), and would recommend it to others looking for a high-performing router. Just be aware that there may be some setup challenges along the way, but they can be resolved with some help from your provider.
Really fab little router. Bought it to replace the appalling one provided by Virgin in the UK. Really simple to setup and use and most importantly the Wi-Fi throw is more than up to the task of getting Wi-Fi to all the corners of my small three-bed house. Brilliant.
See review!
Brilliant product A1 for design & construction just plug & play, but remember to download the App & register your product after creating an account on the Netgear website.
Very pleased with my item.
Update items gone faulty & returned for refund, replacement netgear WAX204 ordered.
After alot of research, I decided to bite the bullet and buy the MR1100 for our motorhome. This has easily been the best decision I have made in a while, we now have fast unlimited WiFi for all our devices with added security and a comprehensive app for complete control. If we go on a vacation without the motorhome our router easily fits in your pocket, making it truly portable. An excellent purchase well worth the money. Go on treat yourself you won’t be disappointed!!!
I’ve had issues with VM Hub 3 since I got it- it’s not fit for purpose, and have had to reset it so many times to get the signal back up. As a modem, the Hub 3 works fine- and this Netgear router is outstanding in terms of performance and range. You get the two bandwiths (2ghz & 5ghz) and the option of setting up a guest wifi- the app that accompanies it is really useful and you can access the router remotely, as well as see all devices online and control usage as required (never disconnected one, but it’s nice to have the option if it gets too busy). Finally getting the performance my ISP advertises, just not through their kit. I got it on a discount, and while 90 seemed a lot to fork out for wireless router, it’s recommended- I live in a near 200 year old terraced house and signal works at least 100 feet from the house and on all floors. Absolutely zero issues with setup once the modem was sorted (not a netgear issue).
I bought a D-link 4g router before this which was rubbish. It had a file-size download limit of 2GB which confused me for days, investigating all options of what caused failed downloads, until i learnt the router itself was causing it. This one has been great. The battery does not last long, but for home, mains use where fibre is not available it’s great, i’ve had speeds of up to 70 or 80gbps using it.
User interface easy to navigate around.
It is easy to set up and WiFi signal is good. The product interface is well laid out and you can find things easily. I was also able to hook it up to my ubiquiti ap and switch
Fast speeds, easy install, quality produc
This piece of kit is a amazing. My virgin router kicks out about 400mbps yet I’m getting nearer 900mbps with this. Netgear clearly better than the rubbish supplied by Virgin media.
I use this for our Campervan for work. I’ve previously just tethered my phone to my computer but have stayed in places with minimal or very slow signal. I am delighted at the internet speed this produces for both my equipment but also my wife’s and the way it gets a better reception. My tip to other users is to use a different SIM card provider to their phone (to increase availability of mobile reception) and to place this device as high as possible in the Campervan. I use a payg SIM card from EE which for 50 which gives 120gb over a 12 month period but depends on your use. The speed makes you want to use it even if your mobile does have a decent signal.
Brilliant router to replace Virgin Media routw
Bought this to replace my virgin media router as I was getting terrible signal around the house. Put the VM router into modem mode, plugged it into this router, downloaded the app to configure it and it’s working perfectly. So pleased.
Great router for replacing an ISP's hub
After we upgraded to Virgin Media’s M350 package, the ‘Super’ Hub 3 proved incapable of providing a reliable connection to more than 2 or 3 devices at a time.
Decided the best solution was just to put the Hub in modem mode and buy a separate router. Settled on this one and it’s handled everything with ease so far. Consistently getting at least 250 Mbps at the far end of the house, and wired connections are solid too (>350 Mbps). Have had 15 devices connected at once with no issues. The Nighthawk app is very straightforward to use and allows for extremely easy management.
Recommended.
Its a netgear router by default, don’t expect an overcomplicated GUI…
Automatic set up will set the basics to get online and then you can do the more advanced stuff in the advanced tab and then reboot with no need to ever go there again…
GUI options include the option to disable Lights, Which will be super helpful if the router is not hidden after full set up…
Default IP is standard Netgear 192.168.1.1… So is likely to clash with many ISP “hubs” so will need changing..
Default password is set per router and as now normal in tiny text but is a “keywords” sentence not scrambled letters and numbers, this makes login way better for the first time..
You are forced to change it the very first boot off router connection …
You do get a cheap Ethernet cable in the box still…
Fabulous Route
Bought this when I had new a new broadband provider. Did lots of homework in advance to make sure the Wi-Fi signal would reach every corner of my 5 bed house and garden. The signal has been outstanding and I can now watch streamed TV in my summerhouse without any problems at all. Can’t recommend this router more highly – it is amazing.
If you have broadband by virgin, this is a must buy their substandard equipment doesn’t give you the service you pay for, this has given me no dropout areas in my home (3 bed semi) at all, every speed-test I’ve done I’m getting the speeds I pay for with this absolute gem of a router. Set up is extremely easy to with the nighthawk app, a little note to add rename your new router with your virgin equipment names so all your devices automatically connect to your new router. Cannot recommended this router highly enough.
I’m sure a number of technically-minded people will point out devices as good/cheaperhowever I was looking for a portable high-speed device to enable connectivity of non-SIM devices (e.g. iPad, laptop) to enable remote-working and streaming of video-content in the car (including as an alternative to the cars own inbuilt hot-spot option) and other non-office / home locations. So far this has lived up to expectations. I have been able to access and download large files remotely with speed and run a Teams call (while also connecting a second device) without lag or interruption from the lower-ground level of a London hotel. This has proved to be a by far more reliable and faster option than the publicly available wifi options (as well as being more secure). It is small, so is easily carried in a bag, or left in the armrest storage of the car, with very good battery life. The small screen is helpful in displaying signal strength, battery strength, number of devices connected as well as the device code to allow other authorised users (e.g. family / colleagues) / devices to connect. Setup was also pretty simple. Overall very pleased.
Got this one to go full-time broadband replacement at home.
Plugged in EE simcard, set-up took about 3 minutes and it is up and flying. On average 4 bars gives us 50 mbps on Wednesday afternoon (I guess this is when network got throttled at its hardest), so will let it play for week or two and see how it is, if not – I will add external antennas, not a big deal.
Solid unit, easy to setup, plenty of settings inside and nice design.
Update after 2 weeks of use.
I went for external antenna, – getting ~120 mbps depending on weather. Because we use it to connect around 10 devices it was overheating a bit, so after quick Google for solution we took the battery out and sorted more powerful power source for it. End of the story, it does the job behind the computer screen and never been seen again, uptime 1 week and counting.
Router perfetto
Ho avuto altri router netgear,che dire,sono sempre affidabili potenti e hanno tutto il necessario per essere utilizzati al meglio,poi questo router il top tra quelli che ho avuto,consigliato soprattutto se si ha una casa con mura spesse.
Easy set up, no issues, great signal
Was dreading replacing our old router, also Netgear, but it was very ancient. The new one was super easy to set up with our Virgin Media modem. Vastly improved speeds and excellent coverage.
Amazing router. Easy to install and set up. Increased our virgin internet speed tremendously
A top quality route
After suffering from daily connection issues with our virgin super hub, I decided to buy this router and use the super hub in modem modem. I only wish I’d done this earlier! What a fantastic router which has allowed us to use multiple (18-25) devices with zero connectivity issues. A must when wfh whilst others are streaming throughout the day. Thank you netgear for a fantastic product!
Great signal but a big uni
Has filled a 4 bed house with a strong signal. It is good that it shares out the wifi over 3 transmitter to whoever needs it most that you can monitor on the app.
Super gain de vitesse
Je l’ai depuis 24 heures et le gain de vitesse est notable. Par contre les papiers l’intrieur ne servent rien pour la mise en route. Pour info il faut garder sa box branche. L’emballage il n’y en avait pas : c’tait le plastique ultra fin qu’il y a autour de la bote en magasin. J’ai achet des cble Ethernet cat.7 en plus, le cble fourni pour une bte de puissance comme le Nighthawk est le 5.2. Incomprhensible.
RAX120
A nice looking piece of Tech. Easy to setup. Quiet operation. Armor doesn’t slow down this beast.
Cons: WiFi not so configurable. Can’t run wifi5 only on 2.4 band and Wifi6 on 5ghz band
Fantastic
Does exactly what it says on the box. Great functionality, the high speed wifi 6 is a dream. The antennas are strong enough for the 5ghz band to cover a 3 storey home and then some. Mobile app is great, so you can edit settings on the go. Overall very impressed.
Amazing!
Weve had terrible wifi for as long as i can remember. Recently switched to virgin and still rubbish so bought this router to plug into the virgin one. Wifi is now amazing, wishnid done it years ago!
WiFi made easy …..
Totally fed up with Virgin’s Supplied router on the WiFi side of things ( a “Chocolate Tea Pot”). Solution NETGEAR AX-1800 it has whistles and bells but just have a single Access Point to start with linked with the Nighthawk sw it’s a breeze you can monitor each individual devices connection speed check vulnerabilities add a separate guest sign-in and a lot more. Yes of course you can split the band’s but let the RAX10 do all this for you. Great bit of kit well worth the money-Do yourself a favour let it take all the stress away!!
Does what it is meant to
I always use my own Router rather then the one the ISP service provides. I decided to get this one. While I know what I am about, I found it easy to set up and configure to my particular needs. It also provides a signal that covers my house and garden which pleases me as I am not a fan of mesh solutions.
I have been with TP-Link for a long time, recently switched to NETGEAR AX1800 WiFi Router (RAX10), this has been a great experience so far, easy to setup and offers fantastic options on mobile App to control your router. I love my new router.

Just hope they spelt password right at the base as mine had one letter missing kept coming up wrong password as the Frist word was easy to see might have letter missing I tryed it and went in after 30 mins trying ….. Hopefully just spelling error on mine as say works grea
Rax70 Netgear nighthawk
Awesome product, setup was really simple and quick. The Netgear app is very easy to use and made setup quick and simple. Performance of the router has been great so far and has solved my dead spot issues throughout my whole house. I replaced my supplier provided router and Wi-Fi pods with a single Rax70 and am getting up to 20-30% improvement on Wi-Fi speeds in some rooms throughout the house
Replaced virgin route
I’ve been battling with wifi and Network issues for as long as I can remember. Got new wifi usb adapters for the laptops (in same room as virgin hub 3). I also have used repeaters for upstairs (was last using virgin one).
Wifi would drop off phone. There would be dropped packages over wifi and homeplug just pinging virgin router, fortnite would lose network at times and glitch.
I got this hoping it would help. Set virgin router to modem mode, plugged in netgear. Configured netgear with same SSID and password and everything connected automatically (loads of wifi blubs so would have been a drag otherwise).
No drops now, wifi in whole house (no repeaters). Network so fast over smb. Why didn’t I do sooner!
Working wonderful wifi
We live in an old house with solid brick walls and 3 teenage kids…Virgin whilst providing super broadband provide woeful wifi. Now it works all over the house. Fast and no fade in the middle of my video conferences(important as I am a doctor doing online consults). Great.
It looks awesome, like a creature of the night, once I got it working, it really does the job, but it was very hard to configure, I had to reset it SIX TIMES!!!! I followed every step as detailed on the directions. I was ready to give up, somehow the last try worked out. I do not like the fact that you cannot use the web interface out of the box, it forces you to download the Nighthawk app on your phone to get started. After it was working, then I was able to access the router from the web interface. Now it works really good, the signal is very powerful. Purchase only after arming yourself with all the patience that you can get. It will pay off.

Super routeu
une grande amlioration pour ma maison .
1/ extrmement simple configurer (soit avec l’application , soit directement avec son pc ce qui offre plus d’options )
2/ une vitesse de votre connexion internet exploit son maximum . J’obtiens des 70mo/s sur certains sites et une moyenne de 45mo/s quand toute la maison est connect (en wifi 5).
3/ un suivi rgulier de l’appareil avec des mises jour quotidiennes . Je l’utilise actuellement comme point d’accs et il gre sans difficult les nombreux appareils connects chez-moi .
Je possdais auparavant un rpteur de la mme marque et c’est un gain de dbit sans quivalant por moi avec une porte plus importante .
En conclusion un excellent appareil qui fait trs bien son travail .
Best upgrade to Virgin hub3
Fixed my Wi-Fi signal issues
Purchased this router as the Virgin Media HUB3 Modem/Router did not seem to be able to handle 2 people working from home (Known issue with that particular model’s Wi-Fi) and connections were constantly dropping out, forcing frequent device reboots.
The RAX10/AX1800 has completely resolved all Wi-Fi performance issues and gives good coverage to all rooms in my small house, without the need for any repeaters. The Netgear app make changing settings very easy, and I was able to give the device the old routers SSID and password, so all my devices connected without any problems. The ISPs device was switched into Modem only mode, as per their instructions and connected with an ethernet cable.
My only complaint with this particular model, is the abundance of status lights. There are 5 bright green LEDs, which flash constantly when connected. This must be have been considered by Netgear as there is an option to turn off all but the power status light, but one must be comfortable accessing the advanced settings via a web browser, as that is how I found the option to turn them off.
I did find that my Xbox was suffering lag/dropped packets in online gaming, but it appeared that the corner I had placed it in was the worst point in the house for Wi-Fi signal (as per a signal measuring app), moving it a few feet to the other side of the desk fixed this problem; so this router is only suitable for smaller houses.
Potenza del segnale mai vista!
Prima di comperare il RAX10 avevo 3 access point (sempre netgear: WNR2000v4 e WNR2000v5). Adesso non ne ho pi bisogno!
Unica pecca la non immediatezza dell’interfaccia che, unita all’ignoranza dei call center, non aiuta la prima installazione della connessione alla fibra.
Great little route
This solved a lot of my problems. However my internet does still fluctuate a few times during the day but I believe this is ISP sided now. The management software on the router is really good, love the app.
BROADBAND SPEED ON YOUR MOBILE
Increase speed on mobile from 1.6 to 20mb in pretty poor signal area connected to external aerial and more in good signal area, i have had 60mb without aerial IE portable and do believe more to be had. can be Little tricky to set up but anyone could do it and once set up very simple you just connect as with any other WI-FI connection. Even has Ethernet connection. Portable as well and can plug in without using battery which is handy. Overall would recommend this product. Only downside it is a little pricey for what it is and haven’t rated tech support as not used as ye
No signal dropping. Strong signals in all corners of house ( 600 sq m). Can control more than 25 iot devices with ease. Can also check status if each device on mobile phone through netgear nighthawk app.

Erwartung erfüllt!
Ich muss gestehen, ich war aufgrund der teilweise kritischen Rezensionen etwas unsicher den RAX200 zu kaufen!
Muss aber jetzt sagen das bis jetzt meine Erwartungen absolut erfllt wurden!
Nachfolgend ein paar Anmerkungen zu wesentlichen Punkten:
Inbetriebnahme: Ging ber die APP sehr schnell und problemlos !
Einrichtung: Ich betreibe den Router als AP hinter meinem Modem von A1. Alle wichtigen Einstellungen fr WLAN, SSID, Passwrter usw. lassen sich ber die Benutzeroberflche gut einstellen. Die Bedienoberflche kann zwar mit ausgereiften Systemen wie z. B:. FritOS nicht mithalten ist aber fr meine Zwecke, im Betrieb als AP, absolut ausreichend!
WLAN Reichweite: Router ist im EG Zentral positioniert und deckt das EG.OG und den Keller durch teilweise mehrere Wnde problemlos ab! ber die 2,4 und die beiden 5 GHZ Frequenzen bleiben alle meine Gerte teilweise mit enormen bertragungsraten (im Vergleich zum Vorgnger) online!
Alles im allem eine klare Empfehlung meinerseits!
NetGear Nighthawk RAX200
My experience with the nighthawk RAX200, setup was very easy to do using the app which explains everything step by step. The RAX200 looks great all antenna’s are hidden, looks like a space ship, cool. I have only been using it for a few weeks but have found that the router is more reliable better range and the wi-fi speed is quicker than it was before using the same speed test. I am very pleased with the NetGear nighthawk RAX200 and would recommend to anyone looking to improve their performance and range within the house
Takes WiFi to the next level
After weeks of problems with our WiFi at home (with 100mb broadband was often struggling to even maintain an audio conference call) installed my RAX70 router and put my ISP router into modem mode and not a single problem since! Easy to install/setup and even copes with sending a signal through an external wall to an extension on our house 🙂
Fast fast and did I say Fast, both WiFi and Etherne
The advantages for me are faster more reliable WiFi in the home for all the hungry devices, keeps the kids from complaining, but the bonus for me is with a few additions I now have a Faster wired network also, enabling me to take advantage of new ways of working to get the job done.
A massive improvement in our wifi
This has improved our download speeds and connectivity in the far corners of the house. It was really easy to set up with the phone app and has put a new lease of life into our Virgin hub. I wish we had got one at the start of lockdown because I could have avoided all of the stress in Teams and Zoom meetings when the signal dropped out.
A router with powerful WiFi signals
I have been using Asus RT-ax82u for 9 months but signal keeps dropping out at far end of our 5 bedrooms house. Changed back to Talktalk smart hub which has more powerful signal.
Finally changed to this one and its powerful WiFi signals now get to every corner of our house. It’s definitely stronger than Talktalk hub and Asus RT-ax82u.
Other negative is that the add on parental control and antivirus are subscriptions services.
The Web interface is a lot simpler than Asus, it looks a bit dated.
So far stable steady Internet. This is much faster, at a distance, than my previous asus.
Sehr zufriede
Habe mir den Router besorgt weil wir immer wieder Probleme mit dem WLAN der normalen Fritzbox hatten, seither ist das WLAN sehr stabil der Ping beim spielen betrgt im Durchschnitt 10ms statt vorherige 30-50ms. Auch die App zum konfigurieren des Routers ist bersichtlich und einfach zu verstehen und zu verwenden. Da ich den Router am black friday auch noch mit einem reduzierten Preis ergattern konnte bin ich auerordentlich zufrieden!
Netgear Nighthawk RAX70 Route
I was looking for a decent router to replace a Virgin Superhub 3 which was giving me very poor WiFi coverage upstairs in our new house. Finally, after much searcing I decided on a Netgear Nighthawk RAX 70. I was still unsure if the RAX70 was capable of doing the job that I required it to do. I can only say that I have been blown away by its performance since purchase. I now have excellent WiFi coverage throughout the house including upstairs. Would highly recommend this product.
So far so good
Early days, but router seems stable and fast. Much smaller than my old R7000, so easier to tuck away. Non removable antennae, so no option to use different ones nor extensions.
Cuts through WiFi Interference and Brick Walls Like a Hot Knife through Butte
I tuned the frequencies of my old WiFi router to find the lowest congested frequencies that I could identify using the NetSpot app. The wifi network still performed poorly, never approaching the full speed of my internet connection. It also constantly dropped the throughput to near zero on both the 2.5 and 5 GHz frequencies. It randomly dropped Internet calls and internet browsing would freeze due to loss of signal because of interference.
I put the Nighthawk RAX120s into the same physical locations of my previous routers configured to exactly the same frequencies and transmit power levels. One as the Wireless Router and the second 2 stories up in my 200+-year-old home as an access point. Now I get full internet speed in every nook and cranny in the house. The connection is stable with none of the dropouts nor near zero throughput experiences. I get full speed in the cellar and in the room that has brick walls around where the signal has to travel through another brick wall with a fireplace in it to get to the router. Even my AC only (non-AX standard) devices enjoy full-speed performance.
I can see over 25 networks from my house. Even with my computer in the same room as the previous wifi router, I couldn’t get full speeds. After replacing it with the Nighthawk I instantly saw full internet speeds on my wifi network, just as if I was wired to the Internet Modem directly.
I used Orbi in my last house which was a craftsman made of wood. I had to put an extender in every room to get this level of performance. I should have gone with the Nighthawk.
Easy set up
I had tried another manufacturer router and the set up was not easy and in the end I gave up the Netgear router and the app made it so easy to set up and we were up and running in 10 mins really good product.
A Home WiFi Network that works - AT LAST
Living in an early 20th century solidly-built house, Home WiFi throughout the three stories has been a challenge……..until now: AT LAST, the download speeds I pay Virgin Media for are achieved thanks to my new NETGEAR 4-Stream AX1800 WiFi 6 Router (RAX10). 200+ upstairs…….thank you NETGEAR!!!
Great buy on sale
Fast speeds, app works great, using same credentials as previous network is a straight swap. Interface settings seems limited but actually holds everything you need. The anywhere network storage still won’t work for me, seems to just reject my account, but local storage works fine. Signal is strong and resilie
Fibra ftth super veloce wifi!!!
Dopo vari anni di fibra fttc sono passato alla fibra ftth, ho sempre avuto router Netgear, per la facilit di istallazione e quindi con la nuova connessione ho cambiato il router ed ho acquistato ax1800… Che sorpresa il WIFI Passare da 15 Mbps a… 500 e oltre… Poi che dire, ho posizionato il router in cascata al piano primo ed ho il segnale WIFI in tutta la casa in modo stabile senza sbalzi… Dimenticavo la casa di tre piani!
Schnell, schneller und weiter...
kurzum – nach einigen Versuchen mit anderen Herstellern bin ich bei diesem Router
gelandet und nach ausgiebigen Test auch geblieben.
Haus mit 3 Etagen und Keller
Vorher: 3 AC – Router + 3 Repeater
Jetzt: 2 RAX Router + 1 Repeate
Solved all my home network issues
I have 23 WiFi devices at home and half of them just haven’t worked with my stock WiFi router.
This device give me 4 WiFi networks one 2GHz and 2x 5GHz. I’m separated my devices now:
– Faster 5GHz – Everything I’m using for work from home – 2 PCs, 1 MacBook;
– Slower 5GHz – all phones and watches (if support it)
– 2GHz – for all other older devices, like TVs, photo frames, printers etc…
– Guest network – enable only when need to share internet without revealing my other devices
Setup happened automatically – just following the instruction.
There are some bugs and paid features for the router and the mobile app, which could be disabled .. otherwise there could be quite useful, if you could pay.
Upgrade
We all have iPhone 11 or newer, so we have WiFi 6, we can finally experience the strength of 6 since we got our router. The virgin media hub 3 not only is poor at sending a decent signal but it also cuts out very often. I thought this was my ISP turns out it was actually the router itself because since having my Netgear I have much strong signal, much stronger range, and much more reliability in my internet. On the virgin media hub 3 the PS5 was speed testing at 103 down and 8 up. With Netgear router it is now maxing at 211 down and 31 up. Great upgrade throughout the home.
it does from the ti
Been using this for a while on the wan connection, and was doing t best then upgraded to fiber, connected it via the Multi-Gig ethernet port,l unleashed the beast, the speeds are insane. this is a straight connection from the wall to the port., surfing the net is a pleasure download, its blink, streaming,l have more the 15 items connected to this but, no-frills, connections always on, no buffering multi-streaming, and eg pip on 4k
Researched this device to make sure it was fully compatible with our ISP (Virgin Media(Hub 3)) and then ordered.
Arrived quickly.
Set it up using the Nighthawk app which is easy to navigate. Opened my VM hub’s UI and set it to modem only and then finished set-up on the Nighthawk app. Fairly pain-free installation apart from a few niggles with our AV and VPN which were solved easily enough (which is amazing considering its having to communicate with Virgin Media junk)
The WiFi throughout the home (3 bed semi) before installing this router was awful, patchy and slow (have 500mb VM package) and Virgin Media’s solution was 2 plug-in boosters which is ok until you placed them in another room wherein they lost connection!
The WiFi after booting up the Netgear router was great, good connection throughout the home with average 400-720mb wifi test speeds.
I use this router in conjunction with a Netgear WiFi extender which enables great connection and speed in our garden some 30m and 2 solid walls away from where the extender is situated.
Feel aggrieved I had to go to this length and cost but at the same point wish I had done this years earlier.
Highly recommended (especially if you are a Virgin Media non Hub 5 user)!
WiFi-tastic
Bought to address WiFi issues with diabolically poor performance from a Virgin “Superhub” 3. High latency and constant dropouts even when within touching distance of the router. Swapping WiFi duties to the RAX70 is like night and day; only been running a week but not a single drop-out. Multiple wireless connections streaming faultlessly at the same time plus numerous wired connections through a brace of 8 port switches. Performance has been spot-on so far. Setup was a breeze using the iOS app. One single issue with a wired LG smart TV that required it’s network settings reset. The RAX70 WiFi signal is rock-solid throughout our 2 storey 1960’s house and into the garden. I procrastinated for a while between a decent WiFi router or a mesh system but finally decided on this and do not regret the decision.
NB not a modem !
Works great and we get a good signal from the attic to the cellar in our stone built house. Non savvy buyers (like me) should note it’s a router without a modem. I was fiddling with it for a long time before the penny dropped. No worries, I got the freebie from the internet service provider out of the cupboard and connected them together.
A doddle
Ask any of my friends I am no IT whizz
This was an absolute doddle to set up (once I realised I had to press a button on top of the device- see above)
It is superb, rapid and you should all buy one!
The best router around!!!
This router has been a total game changer for me – I have virgin media 500mb broadband and the standard virgin hub and because I had 25 devices on it including many sonos – ring doorbell – and Amazon alexas – I was unable to stream well as it would freeze a lot – I turned my hub into a modem and bought this Netgear NightHawk and wow is all I can say – all my devices work so much faster now and stable and I’m getting better speeds also – it was so easy to set up through the app on my phone and I was done in 10 minutes!! Why I waited so long and suffered with poor broadband I do not know but I have told everyone about this Netgear device and to go out and get one. 5 stars
I've been using this router for a few months now and I love it. The range is great, the speeds are phenomenal, and the interface is very user-friendly. It's also pretty easy to set up and use on your smartphone or tablet as well. This router has all of the features you need to keep connected wherever you go with its dual band WiFi capabilities; it can handle both 2.4GHz and 5GHz connections at full speed!

Wi-Fi issues sorted in minutes
Strong signal and excellent speed throughout my house. Having the 2nd 5Ghz band is fantastic and management and setup couldn’t have been easier. VM router speeds sucked – this bad boy is giving me the line speeds I pay for every month. My only regret is waiting so long to buy.
The Internet never looked so good
This Netgear Nighthawk was purchased to replace a set of three Apple AirPort Extremes which were being used to form an extended mesh network.
It gives better range and with the intellect switching allows for even better range and also device control to disconnect via the app.
The internet now reaches my garden and covers four floors and with wifi6 the speed my devices are getting are great.
The setup was simple and easy, download the nighthawk app, follow the instructions and connected to my Virgin Media SuperHub with high fidelity Cat6e networking cable and your off.
Quality Route
Firstly, Build quality and feel in the hand are very good. The M1 is a nice looking piece of equipment.
Secondly, Ease of set up is very good. The manual is adequate and the steps can be followed with relative ease.
Thirdly and most importantly, Performance. Early days to have any real information on this aspect of the router really. I am running my the router with an O2 Data Only sim supplied by “Govivo” (Excellent Service) and with a Poynting Antenna, I had good results in a previously very intermittent data download area.
In summary, nice quality, so far good performance But quite a high price tag (260) when you compare with some other routers on the market bearing in mind it is a 4G only route
Great all round WiFi and LAN Route
Moving to FTTP – Fibre to the Premises with 400mbs I needed something that could handle 5GHz WiFi 6 and many older 2.4GHz IOT devices that don’t work well with smart single named Access Points.
After around a month the RAX120 has been very reliable with all devices from IOT switches, lights and timers, remote controls that need to work every time to multiple high speed WiFi 6 and LAN connected video streaming.
I signed up to the Armor security service, which is very reasonable for the first year at least. This seems to catch denial of service attacks, spam sites etc
Looks amazing too, like a space ship
Slick and Powerful
What a revelation from my out dated router. My Apple devices no longer say “weak security” and I now have full signal on my Mac in the study. The facility to have guest wifi is most exciting too.
Loved my old one - Love This New One
Netgear just do it right. This is my second Nighthawk product, My old R7000p was great for 3 years and I upgraded to 1GHz broadband from my ISP and decided to upgrade and grab the AX6000 WiFi 6 model. This thing just worked straight out of the box configured in under 5 minutes with the nighthawk app and up and running with Wifi download speeds of 948Mbps and up which was great. My family and I live in a very connected smart home, we have lots of wired and wireless devices from Synology NAS, Philips Hue bridge with 20 wifi bulbs and several smart plugs, Gaming Consoles, Android TVs all relying on stable wifi connections and the AX6000 just handles them all with ease. Finally I would just like to say its appearance is awesome, it looks so cool sitting pride of place in our main room like something sneaked out of Area 51 – I just love it – Well done Netgear …agai
Uno dei migliori, velocità e copertura
Arrivavo da un ottimo e fedele Netgear R7800, cambiato solo per fare un upgrade ad un sistema pi recente con wifi6 e maggiore banda, passato da un rax50 che ho sostituito in quanto difettoso, e per non rischiare ho punto ancora pi alto con questo RAX70 che per le mie esigenze quasi troppo..ma mi trovo benissimo. Villetta di 2 piani 80mq a piano, ottima copertura anche in giardino e al secondo piano nel pjnto pi lontano, certo magari non alla massima velocit ma si naviga e guardano film full hd anche a distanza. In soggiorno dove ho il router il mio tablet si collega a 1,2Gbps! Top. Trasferimento da pc ad ups ultraveloci. Consigliato
Ce routeur NetGear m’a permis de rsoudre mes problmes de rseau, sa porte tant bien meilleure qu’une box de FAI. D’autant plus le Wifi 6 permet vraiment un gain significatif en terme de dbit. J’ai pu gagner 10fois plus de dbit dans une pice un peu loigne sur un appareil compatible WiFi 6. En terme d’installation tout se gre par une application Nighthawk, c’est facile d’utilisation avec des menus assez complets pour comprendre l’utilisation rseau, les appareils connects voire le contrle parental. Il est facile de grer le code et le nom des 3 rseaux mis par le routeur. Le rseau reste trs stable mme avec beaucoup d’appareils sur les trois possibilits de connexion.
Bien que le routeur soit un prix prmium, les performances sont largement au rendez-vous, je conseille vivement le routeur si vous avez des problmes de dbit en partie d votre box, la nature de votre logement (nombreux murs pais) ou encore si vous voulez tirer parti au maximum des capacits du WiFi 6.
Mi ha davvero sorpreso questo modello, un best buy uscito nel 2020 di Netgear, questo modello non quello che compare nella foto di Amazon, quindi pu ingannare un po con le sigle , ma involontariamente.
Lo sto usando da pi do una settimana, e ripeto, ha superato di gran lunga delle aspettative, ha una portata Wifi davvero eccelsa, sia sulla 2,4 e 5 Ghz davvero molto stabile, pensate che stavo usando anche un Asus RT-AX82U, che attualmente uno dei top di gamma di Asus sui prodotti consumer e l ho dovuto mettere momentaneamente da parte, perch l Rax10 riesce a risultare pi prestante sulla portata del segnale, incredibile davvero.
L installazione del tutto immediata, non ho visto problemi o particolari ritardi nella configurazione, la nuova interfaccia Nighthawk semplice e intuitiva, forse un po scarna di funzionalit, ma ripeto questo modello uscito come un best Buy!! Segnalo che sul router fisico manca anche l interruttore on/off e la porta Usb, potevano fare qualcosa in pi, ma ripeto ancora… Non uscito per essere un top di gamma, se volete tutte queste opzioni in pi bisogna andare sui modelli di router pi costosi, oltretutto questa la filosofia della Netgear.
In linea di massima, sono molto contento di averlo preso e attualmente diventato con mia mera sorpresa il router preferito, arrivando a preferirlo addirittura all Asus citato.
Enjoy!!
Simple and fas
Easy to set up, great connectivity and features for managing everything on the home network. Came with a free security advisor tool which scans connected devices for potential issues. Also looks pretty cool on the shelf. Would definitely recommend!
Good coverage but intermitte
Good product, the intermittent connection as the speeds are not always consistent. The coverage is good as long as the router is in the right open location so the signal can spread.
Also I got this on an Amazon warehouse deal and I am not sure if there was an issue before as they don’t tell you anything. Lesson is not to order a warehouse produc
The best Wi-Fi 6 Route
It is simply the best Wi-Fi six Router around. 12 data streams. Two 5 GHz bands. Incredible range with a strong signal throughout our home. Armor Cyber Security Software included.
It outperforms all other Wi-Fi 6 Routers (just read the outstanding reviews in all the Computer Magazines – as we did)
