NETGEAR Nighthawk 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi 6

[@Dondonden1234]

I've been using my AX5400 for almost a year and it's been very reliable and extremely fast. Right now we have 300 mbps and speeds are even exceeding that 300. I live in a 2500 sqft 2 story house and don't even need an extender to get good coverage.I don't have any wifi6 electronics yet but will soon.

The stability and low ping are what I ordered this for. Hopefully it's here soon and I can test it myself!

[@Upgradetech]

How has it been working for you?

[@archipelago9376]

@@Upgradetech It's been ok, although speeds haven't been as high yet as my $60 router. I'm still fiddling with settings to hopefully find something that does work, however.

@@archipelago9376 what kind of $60 router you have is it any good wifi 6?

Thanks for your review ! I've always liked Netgear routers, but I'll pass on this one. The idea of needing a smart phone app to perform/use the router is silly, and a security risk, and having to pay for features that should be free stinks. IMHO

[@KRIAJK]

You didn’t even watch the video. You aren’t forced to use an app on your phone and you get everything you could possibly be wanting without paying a subscription. If you’re youre genuinely concerned about security then you wouldn’t even be doing stuff over wifi. You’d be hardlined with everything using a PoS.

[@dlstephens]

Can this be linked to another router with more user friendly parental controls like you mentioned?

[@Upgradetech]

Yes you can build up a firewall with another router but will cut you connectivity down and will be complicated to manage is something get blocked. I would recommend adding another router for home.

[@dlstephens]

@@Upgradetech That's what I was thinking. Keep my Netgear then add maybe an ASUS AC1900 for easier/lasting security without a subscription..

@@Upgradetech The scanner should have come with some free upgrade, you can contact the manufacturer to unlock this.

[@ramzifps8421]

Can you use Wi-Fi or does it have to be ethernet

[@Upgradetech]

It has both and so far it's been the best router I have purchased

[@zp944]

@@Upgradetech I agree, and I only have 2 wifi 6 devices in my home. But even my ab devices perform better thanks to beam forming. I also removed the frequency filter that's installed on the cable internet line coming into the home, which made a huge difference. I pay for 300Mbps down, but I regularly get 400-500Mbps without the filter
