The AC3200 Nighthawk X6 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router from NETGEAR features 802.11ac tri-band Gigabit Wi-Fi performance providing one 600 Mb/s data stream on the 2.4 GHz frequency and two 1300 Mb/s data streams on the 5 GHz frequency. These data rates can be combined to offer up to 3200 Mb/s performance when used with 802.11ac compatible Wi-Fi devices.
Along with enhanced Wi-Fi performance, the Nighthawk X6 comes equipped with four Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports and one Gigabit Ethernet WAN port. You can also connect USB compatible devices such as printers and hard drives to either of the USB ports to make them accessible throughout the network.
Inside the Nighthawk X6 you will find a 1 GHz dual-core processor along with 3 offload processors, 128MB of Flash memory, and 256MB of RAM memory. In addition to the enhanced processing power, this router utilizes six high performance external antennas allowing the signal to reach farther than comparable routers. With Beamforming+ technology, that signal can be directed to specific devices for enhanced speed, reliability, and range.
With READYShare technology from NETGEAR, you can stream your media to a variety of devices such as game consoles, media players, smart TVs, and more. Simply insert a compatible USB storage device directly to either of the USB ports found on the back of the router and begin streaming all of your videos, movies, photos, and music. Along with streaming of multimedia content, you can back up your PC directly to an attached USB storage device using the READYShare Vault application.

We previously owned an Apple AirPort Extreme but the speeds just weren’t cutting it. After switching to this unit, our speeds have since tripled. Highly recommended.

This is a great router, super fast and so easy to setup and configure with the app. It is working great and I get connected all over my house with no problem.

This took a little more time to setup than I originally thought it would. Dont know if the modem provided by my ISP was at fault or this router. Regardless, keeping my router on while power cycling the modem ended up getting everything working. Since then I have had no issues. The signal clearly reaches every corner with only about a 20% decrease in speed in the furthest place. The performance and speed as been great but reliability is my highest concern. This router meets that reliability mark, but I will update this review if anything happens.

Had problems watching 4k porn. Not anymore. This router is sick! I love the range and control. Also I think it looks awesome. The only thing I wish is that it had a modem built in.

We purchased the Netgear Nighthawk X6 on recommendation of a friend and a son. The easy setup and iPhone management is a big plus. But, the main benefit is the amazing increase in throughput: from about 10 Mbps to about 120 Mbps (download)! I refer this router to my friends!

I’m an I.T. professional, set up routers for myself, friends, church, and my office, but it’s been a while . . . This is close to plug and play – VERY east to setup. And it’s fast – processes traffic from: two computers (combination of Mac and PCs), multiple iPads, iPhones, home theater, home security system, home automation – and doesn’t break a sweat. So far – no issues only great performance. Thanks Netgear!

The internet speeds in our college house are reaching their top potential, any device, anywhere in the house with four tenants and frequent guests totaling tons of devices. Between the quick setup, easy, yet functional, router settings, and adjustablility it’s the best router I have ever interacted with.
