Netgear Nighthawk AX4 AX3000

Awesome router

This router is awesome and the range even better. I got this when NBN HFC was installed in my house. I used to have 2 routers in my house to get coverage from front to back (and it worked OK, not great). After installing this router (at the back of my house where the modem connections) I get full strength signal and speeds on my front lawn, as if I was standing right next to the router. Easy setup and future proof with Wifi6

Terrible Router

First of all, this router comes with the WAN port (internet connection) disabled by default. Why would anyone ever want that? Secondly, after 3 hours of trying to get this to work on my own, with Netgear, and my ISP, none of us could get it to work with my NBN HFC connection. This may improve with firmware updates down the track, but as for now, do not buy this router

Netgear Nighthawk AX4 review

New 802.11ax routers are still expensive, and their new features probably aren’t essential for most home users at the moment, so the Nighthawk AX4 isn’t a ‘must-have’ upgrade just yet. But if your current router is struggling with a home full of connected devices it’s worth investing in a more versatile and future-proof router that can handle dozens of devices in modern connected homes.
