Here is The Standard Review for the NETGEAR Nighthawk X6S Smart Wi-Fi Router. This router is super fast and works great for gaming, streaming services and working from home. Our family works from home and requires high bandwidth speeds for the type of work that we do, the Nighthawk handles it well. Our kids can be gaming while we are working and steaming TV services, we do not notice any reduction in speeds. The range is also great. We live on an acre and have high speed wifi inside and outside our home without any issues!

I’m an ATT customer and so at first I went with their wifi router plus extenders. Little did I know that not only I was overpaying, what I was overpaying for was under performing. So I started doing some research and found X6S AC4000. First of all the range on this router is insane. I live in a 3 story house and I’m still looking for a dead spot and can’t find one. Second, it is a tri-band!!!! So I have my business in one home devices on another and the game system on the 3rd us I’m able to go hardwire to the XBOX and yep the performance simply blows my mind. Have to mention that set up was super easy and yes got rid of the ATT crap plus I’m saving money. It does not get any better than that so in the end is paying for it self.

Had an older Netgear router that couldn’t handle all the streaming traffic after I cut the cable cord. Decided to go with the Nighthawk X6S AC4000 based on all the reviews I read. The reviews weren’t wrong!! Without changing my internet service provider and only switching to this new router, my download speeds went from a typical 50-54Mbps download to 450-480Mbps download. Unbelievable performance. The old router also used to routinely drop the connection for my cameras as well due to the speeds but since installing this new router a week ago, nothing has dropped yet (fingers crossed).
There are a few “quirks” that I’m not too happy about but can live with. First, the old Netgear app that supported my old router had a Network Map function which displayed how all currently connected devices were laid out; the new Nighthawk app doesn’t have this feature. Secondly, there’s a glitch between the Nighthawk app and the web based router setup. Through the Nighthawk app, each connected device can be edited to specify what each is based on pre-configured choices (tablet, smartphone, bridge, etc…). The web based router interface has different labels for all connected devices (iPhone, iPad, Windows Computer, etc…). If you specify on the Nighthawk app that a device is a “smartphone” and then log into the web based router interface, the device is listed as “unknown type”. If you specify a device as an “iPhone” in the web based router interface and then log into the Nighthawk app, the device is listed as “Unknown Type”. Would be VERY helpful if Netgear could sync both the Nighthawk app and the web based router interface to use the same terminology for devices so they are setup once and listed properly no matter which interface you use.
Thirdly, there’s another glitch in the setup process (on both the Nighthawk app and the web based router interface) when enabling the remote access feature. If enabled on the web based router app, it fails a few times and then goes through fully enabling remote access. When trying to enable remote access on the Nighthawk app, it fails all the time and says it’s not enabled, even though the web based router interface shows remote access is enabled (and after successfully accessing router remotely through internet).
Again, these are all minor glitches that hopefully Netgear will address in future app releases and firmware updates. But overall, just based on the significant improvement in download speeds and uptime reliability, this is the best router I’ve ever owned (and this is probably my 10th router in the past 20 years; having tried multiple Linksys, Netgear, and Belkin routers over the years).

Have purchased netgear router on 21 st February. And from today I.e 3 rd March it stopped working . It’s switching off automatically. Can you please revert in this . Have purchased it for 32,000 and it’s stopped working . It hardly worked for one week.

OK, so this thing will give you lots of internets. That’s its job, and so you won’t be disappointed with it. It handles a number of devices without issue, and it has a few different signal bands so that you can enjoy fast speeds close to it and any speed at all if you’re outside dorking around.
It’s not too tough to set up. The app that it comes with does NOT work for setting it up (though it claims to). You still have to get a computer or something to do that initial connection. It took me about an hour or so to come to that conclusion (because it is very adamant that the app will work. The app does not work), but if I had started with a lined connection it would have been up and running pretty quickly.
It hasn’t failed me yet, working like a trooper since I installed it in February. It gives a fairly strong signal (though I wouldn’t write home about the range, it’s not bad at all). It doesn’t need rebooting every 30 seconds like a Verizon router, and it just does its job well.
NOTE: The app to connect to it works fine once you’ve set it up. It does NOT work to set it up initially. This app doesn’t have a ton of features, but it works well enough to access some good stuff. They actually make it TOO easy to accidentally click a button that resets all of the networks to default settings without intending to (think- adding a 2.5mhz band, but it re-sets the 5 and 5.1 if you click that button).
It also does not have any way to add VPN. They claim you can buy one right through Netgear, but that is both expensive and ill-advised. I tried every trick- from modding the system to working within its given framework, but it just does not work. 3 or 4 nerds have gotten it to work, but 98% of users run into errors and risk bricking their router with every attempt.
IT CLAIMS TO HAVE VPN, but it doesn’t. And the fact that a really small number of nerds got it modded enough to work with outside VPNs mean that it’s on the whitelist for a number of those sites. But it’s all a lie.
BUY THIS if you have too much money to blow on a router, because it’ll solve your internet connection issues. It’s expensive, but darn it– it does its job. DO NOT BUY THIS if you want to get Tajikistan Netflix or something through a VPN.
There are better and even cheaper routers that do the same thing or more than this, but it absolutely does its intended job and will work for most of the people reading this.
