We bought the EAX80 because of the PlayStation at the other end of the house. Then our router quit and we bought another ASUS router a RT-BE57U. Now everything works great except the Sony PlayStation. If it wasn't for that I would have given it 5 stars. If you have any information that you could share to help us, we would appreciate it.

I needed a device that would keep my signal from dropping or just getting a weak signal strength and this was great choice that achieved my goal and improved my coverage

I purchased the Netgear gateway system about a year ago. I recently moved and was having trouble with my Internet signal so I purchased the extender. I'm a little disappointed in the range. For example, a television needs to be directly connected. That is only two walls away and less than 20 feet. The TV will not pick up the signal from the extender. Still trying options to fix, but I have to say I'm a little disappointed.

Works fine if you just want to watch a show or two at the same time but often wont connect with the mobile APP and just makes it not a great pick for what I was looking for.

This unit gives us plenty of coverage throughout our brick house and allows all our devices to stay connected!

My old route use to drop out a lot. I wanted to try the AX6000. I have very happy with it. I've only been using it a week, but it has been great so far.

Could not get wifi to our outdoor area due to block construction and hurricane windows. Tried several other products that didn't work. EAX80 does the job and works great.

Very easy to set up, plug in and follow the APP steps, a few clicks and done. Only drawback is that it consumes a bit of speed thus what you will be getting out of it would be a bit slower than you would otherwise get via WiFi connection to the router itself.

I purchased a new NETGEAR router as part of a trouble shooting process when my WiFi stopped working. It turned out to be a firmware issue with my new modem. I planned to use the new/updated router anyway. But it would not connect to everything. So I reinstalled my AX6000, and it works seamlessly with the new modem.

This WiFi router is by far the best one I have owned. It's fast and can handle multiple devices without slowing down.i would buy it again given the opportunity.

I recently purchased a Netgear Nighthawk Mess Extender Eax80 to extend my wifi out to onto my patio. It works great!! Don't have to swap over to other wifi network anymore. It's also super fast!

We have this in the end of the house so it extends to our garage and we have music through Alexa when working out there now. Also can surf for parts without dropping the connection! Satisfied!

The NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender (EAX80) completely upped my Network game. I have an involved network with many devices who suddenly stand at attention and are super responsive since I installed the NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender (EAX80).

I tried a smaller range extender in my basement and didn't have good results. Purchased the EAX80 and instantly have wifi 7 in the basement. Would definitely recommend

I used this as an access point in a steel building where I had no access previously. The install was simple and set up was basically automatic. I now don't have to open the door and walk toward the house to get a signal. Very happy!

Re-Setup was a bit dodgy and frustrating when we got new internet. Do a factory reset. Then it came together very well and works wonderfully.

The device is the best extender in the market for all categories you can think of. Price is great for the power it outputs. The user friendly guide was helpful for setup. I got everything done just by using the app. As well, the design of the device. The device's design makes it possible to put in a corner and not disturb. Overall this device is the best extender and one of my favorite purchases I have ever made.

My house has brick walls, so I get poor wifi strength in my room. So I got this to get a better signal, and it does exactly that

It was a real easy to hook this EAX80 up and by making it an access point it makes the wifi extend into my backyard and our outdoor room, we stream TV with no problem. In my option this is the way to go with the EAX80 to fill your house with wifi.

Awesome range extender and very easy setup with the nighthawk app also really like that the range extender keeps your same wifi name instead of using and extra network

I purchased this in March of this year, I had connection issues, would not hold a connection, so I reduced my extended 5ghz band to 2400mbps..it then held the connection.. I have a 1gbps Xfinity connection. It was setup at the back of my house. I was getting 230mbps good enough, but I wanted it faster..yesterday I bumped it back up to 4800mbps but this time I turned on Mu-mimo..went up to 443mpbs outstanding since real world results are reduced to have over an extender since it has send a...
