Overview

NETGEAR built this Nighthawk router around the newest Wi-Fi standard, with twelve streams and a quad-core processor for streaming, gaming and smart home traffic. Eight antennas amplify the signal, and a multi-gig port serves a fast wired link.

The reason to buy is capacity: OFDMA and many streams handle crowded networks better than older routers. The limit is the size of a heavy, large unit and some muddled spec fields, such as a ports count of five.

Who it's for

Households with many modern Wi-Fi devices, a fast internet plan and gaming or 4K streaming will use the capacity and multi-gig port. Light users, or those with older devices only, will see little gain and can choose a simpler router.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wi-Fi 6 with WPA3
  • Multi-gig wired port
  • Guest mode and remote access
Cons
  • Large and heavy body
  • Antennas are fixed
  • Basic firewall level
  • Listing mixes unrelated compatible devices

Performance notes

OFDMA lets the router divide a channel among many devices at once, which raises capacity more than raw speed. Beamforming and MU-MIMO aim and serve clients in parallel. The headline rate is a combined figure across the two bands.
