details: AX6600 Nighthawk 8-Stream Tri-Band WiFi 6 Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2021-05-01
updated: 2021-05-06
RAX70 provides 6600Mbps wireless speed: 1200Mbps + 4800Mbps + 600Mbps with 8-stream connectivity. 4X4 MU-MIMO allows simultaneous streaming to multiple devices. 1024-QAM—25% increased data efficiency and faster speeds than a 256-QAM router.

This router has the ability to aggregate two gigabit LAN ports for faster file transfers and two gigabit ports for internet connections. Multi-Gig Experience maximizes your available Internet speeds with link port aggregation support. 160MHZ channel support doubles the speeds as offered by 80MHz channels to provide Gigabit speeds for compatible mobile devices and laptops.

With tri-band WiFi, you get three WiFi bands, with the third dedicated for communication between your router and satellite. That means less network congestion and device interference, and more speed and efficiency. Enjoy the fastest WiFi on every device, wherever you are in the house.

Uplink and downlink OFDMA substantially improves network capacity and efficiency, particularly when traffic is created simultaneously.

Additional DFS Channels reduce interference from neighboring networks with the advantage of additional channels.

NETGEAR Armor cybersecurity keeps your network and private data safe from online threats, at home and on the go. One subscription protects an unlimited number of connected devices, from phones and laptops to thermostats and security cameras.

With the Nighthawk app, setup takes just minutes, so you can start enjoying better WiFi sooner. You can also see your connected devices, run an internet speed test, manage your NETGEAR service subscriptions, and more from the palm of your hand.
