I bought this and installed it yesterday. I have a computer degree and didn't read the instructions and just tried to wing setup in the middle of working from home and it went bad for 2 or 3 hours. It's very simple just follow the little install sheet.
With it installed and running, day and night difference. All cameras load instantly and are clear. Almost no delays on TVs. And I have 4/5 bars at the back garage. Never thought I would be so impressed with the thing. App is pretty nice and easy to use as well. I was lucky enough to get it at $150 which is even lower than the 4200 which is the next step down, putting the next level 6600 at $80 more.
Even at normal price, I highly recommend this thing!
The NETGEAR Nighthawk 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi 6 Router (RAX50) is a true powerhouse when it comes to delivering high-speed, reliable, and secure wireless connectivity. As an upgrade to its predecessor, this dual-band wireless router brings to the table the latest WiFi 6 technology, promising to revolutionize your home network experience.
Setting up the RAX50 was a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly web interface and the Nighthawk app, which made the initial configuration a smooth process. Once up and running, the router impressed us with its exceptional performance. With AX5400 dual-band capabilities, it effortlessly handles multiple devices simultaneously, even during peak usage times.
The router's six-stream technology and advanced 160MHz channel support deliver lightning-fast speeds, making lag-free gaming and 4K streaming a reality. We noticed a significant improvement in our network's overall stability and coverage, which is particularly beneficial for larger homes or multi-story setups.
The Nighthawk RAX50 also comes equipped with robust security features, ensuring a safe online experience for all connected devices. WPA3 encryption, guest network support, and automatic firmware updates help protect against potential threats and vulnerabilities.
One of the standout features of the RAX50 is its impressive array of customizable settings. The QoS (Quality of Service) options enable us to prioritize specific devices or applications, ensuring smooth performance for crucial tasks. The presence of four Gigabit Ethernet ports and a USB 3.0 port further enhances its versatility, allowing for seamless wired connections and convenient sharing of files across the network.
The router's sleek design and subtle LED indicators add a touch of sophistication to any home environment, while also maintaining a low profile. Despite its powerful capabilities, we noticed that the device runs relatively cool, contributing to its overall reliability.
However, it's worth noting that the RAX50's premium features come at a higher price point compared to some other routers in the market. Nevertheless, if you're looking for cutting-edge technology and top-tier performance, this router is worth the investment.
In conclusion, the NETGEAR Nighthawk 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi 6 Router (RAX50) delivers on its promises of high-speed connectivity, impressive coverage, and robust security features. Whether you're a tech-savvy enthusiast or a casual user, this router has the power to elevate your home network to the next level.
The router came intact without any problems set up, was easy with the provided app. I set mine up as a second separate network from my Internet providers device. I connected it to the cable modem by pre-existing ethernet connection at the side of my old router, then follow the instructions on the app And I was up and running in less than five minutes.
I have had no problems, connecting with any of my devices, which include security, cameras, thermostats, laptops, TVs and iPads. My son works from home for a software company has been running his work operation without any difficulties, and we have not experienced any limitations with regard to bandwidth or speed. The range of the router is quite good without any dead spots within my 5000 square-foot home and garage. We even have good signal outside around the pool.
I will summarize by saying this is a great router, for the money does what it says, and it’s easy to set up
