The NETGEAR Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi 6E Router AXE11000 has far exceeded my expectations, from when I opened it to setting it up. Not only does its sleek design add a touch of elegance to my workspace, but it also hints at the impressive performance that lies within.
Setting up this router was incredibly easy, thanks to the user-friendly Nighthawk app. It guided me through a seamless process that had my network operational in just minutes. As someone who has struggled with complex router configurations in the past, I greatly appreciate NETGEAR's approach to making things simple and intuitive.
In terms of performance, the AXE11000 is truly remarkable. With its WiFi 6E capability, all my devices now experience lightning-fast speeds and minimal interference or congestion due to its tri-band setup—even with multiple tech-savvy teenagers constantly using bandwidth-intensive activities like online gaming and streaming high-resolution videos in 4K. Thanks to this exceptional router, these activities now run smoothly without any interruptions or disruptions.
The level of coverage is truly impressive. I've noticed a significant reduction in areas with weak signals, and even when I'm at the furthest distance from the router, the signal strength remains consistently strong. It's evident that NETGEAR has made substantial investments in advanced antennas and powerful amplifiers to ensure maximum reach and performance.
When it comes to security, the RAXE500 excels as well. With its integration of NETGEAR Armor powered by Bitdefender, I feel confident knowing that all my devices are fully protected against various cyber threats lurking in today's digital world.
If there is any downside worth mentioning, it would be its slightly higher price point. However, given the remarkable features and stability it offers, especially for homes requiring high connectivity demands, I believe it proves itself a worthwhile investment.
In summary, the NETGEAR Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi 6E Router AXE11000 is an impressive addition to any household network. It offers high-speed connectivity, extensive coverage, and robust security features—all without sacrificing performance. I highly recommend this product for anyone seeking to enhance their home internet experience and unlock its full potential.

I am not using the 6g band as when I tried to connect our two iPhone 15s we kept receiving a message on the phone that there could be stability issues or something along those lines. I can't remember the exact message but just went ahead connected to the 5gh band with zero issues. No signal loss or interruption like when I was using the Wi-Fi boosters that didn't work that great IMO. At any given time we are running two PS5 consoles, one wired as mentioned and the other on Wi-Fi, one wired t.v. and two smart televisions that are using Wi-Fi to stream, not to mention the laptops, four phones, 9 -arlo cameras, two Ring cameras, and other devices without issue. We are with Xfinity and typically receive a download of 950 mbs and upload around 45 so I can't really comment on the claims that Netgear makes about the super-high speed transfer rates, etc.
