Both the hardware and the software are dreadful. First the hardware: I spent hours configuring and reconfiguring and could not get the boxes to talk to each other. Wired, wireless, sitting alongside each other it didn’t work. The lights on the boxes bear no connection to their real world status. The app sometimes says they are not connected even when they are and says they are connected when they are not even plugged in or powered on. Eventually I returned the system and was told it was faulty and given a replacement. But the replacement is only slightly better. The router works most of the time, one of the satellites is always working but the other one has never connected even once. It’s useless.The app is even worse. Firstly you have to download an app and ... MoreBoth the hardware and the software are dreadful.

And the app doesn’t work well. Usually it says it can’t find your network even when you are connected to it and able to get online through it. That’s once you’ve managed to log on and got through the “buy our software” stuff.I am literally going to throw this away and buy something else.AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

As the title states, the wi-fi coverage I'm getting now is like night and day.I am an experienced tech person, so that is my frame of reference in this review. First, I did my research before coming into the store to purchase. Most reviews I read, didn't mention the NETGEAR Mesh Wi-Fi 6 system. However; being a tech person, I have used a myriad of NETGEAR products over the years, so I knew before hand they deliver quality consumer network products. I like the NETGEAR system for two primary reasons: 1) price point and 2) it doesn't spy on me like some other products I'll not mention. Outside of that, the wi-fi coverage and number of devices that can connect simultaneously is comparable to more expensive products.

Outside of that, the wi-fi coverage and number of devices that can connect simultaneously is comparable to more expensive products. In addition, I liked the fact that each satellite has a wired gigabit LAN backflow connection.The installation was a little tricky because my ISP service is different than most; nevertheless, I was able to access the router configuration interface in short order to make the necessary adjustments to connect to my ISP. My last three home routers were all NETGEAR, so I am very familiar with the router interface. The satellites connected automatically, so for overall installation, it was very quick and easy.My biggest concern, was getting a good wi-fi signal to our bonus room above the garage. Previously, I had a router configured as a access point to the main router via hardwire LAN connection. It worked, but I also had one other router within the house acting as another access point. Again, this worked, but not as well as one would think. When you move from one place to another within the house, the wireless devices would need to connect to the different access points, but it was never that simple and was not consistent - even if using the same SSID for all access points. One of the new NETGEAR Mesh satellites is located downstairs below the bonus room, but there is ample signal to provide coverage to the bonus room now.My wife and daughter have complained for years about our wi-fi in our home. Since I have installed this new Mesh system, zero complaints! I am very pleased and wish I'd have made this switch long ago.I highly recommend this system if you're looking for a cost effective solution to whole home wi-fi coverage.

We can game on ps5 Xbox s pc watch movies YouTube no problems. We have connection in the whole house for the first time! This product is awesome! Please go out and buy it it’s so worth it and it’s always on sale. I have the two band system but they do have three band.

This was especially impressive considering the numerous walls and obstacles in my home that typically weaken Wi-Fi signals.The router also comes with advanced security features, including WPA3 encryption and NETGEAR Armor™, which provides protection from cyber threats such as malware and phishing.Another great feature is the ability to manage and customize your network settings via the app. This includes setting up guest networks, parental controls, and prioritizing devices for faster speeds.Overall, the Netgear Nighthawk AX1800 mesh system is an excellent choice for anyone looking for reliable and fast Wi-Fi coverage throughout their home. Its easy setup, advanced security features, and customizable settings make it a top contender in the mesh router market. Highly recommended!
There are many wifi-6 mesh routers out there. Nighthawk was a name synonymous with earlier "gaming" branded products from netgear, boasting larger bandwidth with higher speeds. For us, it is a household name. The color and design of these is great. I would absolutely recommend this to fill the holes of any network. We now disconnect from the wifi automatically a short time after pulling out of the driveway, which should speak well to the range.
Setup and Ease of Use: Setting up the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX1800 Mesh Wi-Fi System is a breeze. The instructions are clear, and the accompanying app makes the process even smoother. The intuitive interface allows for easy management and control of the network settings.Coverage and Performance: The coverage is impressive. The dual-band mesh system ensures that Wi-Fi dead zones are a thing of the past, even in larger homes. The AX1800 speed supports multiple devices seamlessly, handling high-bandwidth activities like streaming, gaming, and video conferencing without any noticeable lag.Design and Build Quality: The units have a sleek, modern design that blends well in any setting.

Great mesh system for Wi-Fi 6 but with 1 MAJOR ANNOYING FLAW! The 2.5ghz and 5gz do not operate seamlessly together. Meaning if you connect a device that needs to be on the 2.4gz but the device your using to setup with is on the 5ghz you will not be able to complete setup. There is no function that allows to simply cut one band off or to even control the coexistence between the two other than manipulating the signal power. Which then allows your device (such as an iPhone) to connect to the 2.4ghz after you’ve walked about 30 feet away from your home. This flaw alone made me switch to the Orbi mesh system with a doscis 3.1 Motorola modem. I have found there are to many bugs and unknown issues that arise from using modem router combos with such new techniques. At ... MoreGreat mesh system for Wi-Fi 6 but with 1 MAJOR ANNOYING FLAW!

The hardware is unreliable. I've had two of these systems. Neither satellite worked on the first one. They replaced it. Only one satellite works on the new one. Even on that one the ethernet connection port doesn't work. The main router is the only piece of hardware that seems to function correctly, but I already had one of those like most people buying this will. The software is even worse. First there is the irritation of having to set up an account and create a username and password just to turn on your expensive new system. You also have to agree to a 30-day trial of some security crapware, just to use your hardware. Once the app is installed you will get the full extent of its uselessness. It will tell you it "can't connect to the router" even when you are on ... MoreThe hardware is unreliable. I've had two of these systems. Neither satellite worked on the first one. They replaced it.

It will tell you it "can't connect to the router" even when you are on the router's network and able to go online through it. It will tell you random things about the satellites status that have no connection to their actual status. And from time to time it will lock you out until you re-enter your username and password, or agree to the privacy policy, or click through offers to buy the crapware once it's trial is ended. Do yourself a favour and buy something better than this.
I just purchased this in an attempt to speed up my local network speeds. I transfer large files between computers over WiFi frequently and thought this would work. I was wrong. The Nighthawk App shows PC1 and PC2 are connected via 5Ghz and Ethernet respectively to the same satellite, but the transfer speeds are only 120mbps. This is despite both being ~3ft from the satellite. This kind of performance out-of-the-box is pretty terrible. With direct ethernet, no satellite, I get 1000mbps, so I know the issue is Netgear's.
