The editors liked

  • The all-new Netgear R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wireless Router has powerful hardware and excellent Wi-Fi data rates on the 5Ghz frequency band. When coupled with an external hard drive
  • The router also functions as a robust NAS server

The editors didn't like

  • The router has a buggy 2.4Ghz band and comparatively short Wi-Fi range
  • And -- when all is working as intended -- it doesn't perform any better than other AC1900 routers. It's also crazily expensive

  • Are you looking for an 802.11ac router? Then you'll be able to choose from a plethora of routers, since pretty much all 802.11ac models that have been released since 2012, are still readily available. This does imply that there hasn't been a lot of chan...

  • The Netgear R8000 Nighthawk X6 is, without a doubt, the fastest router that we have tested thus far. This isn't because of the introduction of all sorts of hip new technologies, such as Multi-User MIMO, but mainly because of the addition of an extra rad...

  • Price (For Some), High-Gain Antenna Quality,
  • When Netgear announced the availability of the Nighthawk X6 R8000 I was intrigued since it was the first Tri-Band AC3200 compatible WiFi router in the market and having reviewed the excellent Nighthawk R7000 made things even more interesting. S...
