Great Router
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup was easy, once I found the default admin password on the bottom of the router. Works great.

Perfect!
Needed a router to support 300mbs throughout a 2 story home. 5 bed rooms and this works perfect. 3 of the rooms pick up 450mbs and the 2 furthest rooms still come in a respective 275mbps. This does exactly what I needed it to do. The mesh systems cut my speeds in half instead of helping, they made it worse. This one router is a savior for my internet speeds throughout the home. I should also mention that the app for this router is amazing to say the least. It even allows you to test the speed for each area of your home as often as you like. There is never a guess as to what speeds you are getting with the app.
Bottom line - I absolutely love this router!
Don't hesitate - go get one today! 😁😁😁

RS200 router
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Connected to CM3000, downloaded the Nighthawk app and set-up was very easy. This is a replacement for the older CM1200 and R6080 network.

Router Needed Upgrade
This router was purchased to replace a 4 year old Netgear Nighthawk. This router covers a wider area and eliminated the need for additional wifi extenders. Some issues during setup, but eventually the process completed. The app is easy to use.

Awesome
Love it. Takes up less space than my old one. Didn't have problems with internet or wifi. At first my devices had to get use to it but now it is going great. I love the nighthawk brands. If my modem goes out in a few years I'll be getting the latest nighthawk version. Happy customer.

Solid Router with Great Performance
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked up this router to replace one which took a power surge in a storm. I am very please with the set up time, assistance from NetGear techs and the overall performance of the router. I have both hard line ethernet connections as well as several wifi connections running using this router and all work superbly.

Great bargain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nighthawk gives you everything you could need at a great price. Netgear is a great brand with an outstanding reputation. Combine the two and you have the perfect router. It is fast and dependable. It provides more connection options than a family of four will ever need and provides additional guest connections when friends visit.
I’m glad I chose the Nighthawk Netgear router. You will be glad as well.

New Netgear
The installation process was more protracted than anticipated. Once the router was successfully installed, the sole obstacle I encountered was the process of adding devices.

Excellent Router
I upgraded my internet speed to 1 gigabit and needed a new router that can handle the speed. It is very reliable and I like that fact that it is wifi-7 compatible.

NETGEAR Nighthawk BE6500 Wi-Fi 7 Router (RS200)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to setup, the app that goes along with the router guides you through each part of the process - including if you need updated firmware. Very pleased with this purchase - streaming has been smooth as ever and speeds are through the roof.

Great Router
My older model seemed to be getting a little sluggish. I was waffling between the Wi-Fi 6 or the 7. The 7 was the right choice. All my older equipment connected fine. My wife immediately noticed much better resolution on her bedroom TV. Everything is more crisp. Better reception throughout the house. And noticeably better speeds. Highly recommend.

Extremely easy to set up
This RS200 is replacing an old Apple Time Capsule. I was concerned about all of my IoT devices (plugs, switches, lights, 45 total) reconnecting without a LOT of hassle. As it turns out, I just had to set my Apple Router to “Bridge” mode. It just worked, everything got passed through.
The speed increase is incredible, the app did all the set-up work which made it super simple. Looking forward to many trouble free years of speedy throughput.

Faster Wifi
This router has been in use for about a week without any hiccups. It runs solid as expected. My last router was a Netgear N600 that is about 10 years old and still running. The only reason for replacing it was for a gigabit WAN port. The Nighthawk RS200 has 2.5 Gigabit WAN Port. It also has wifi 7 to boot. These features will 'future-proof' my Internet connectivity, and should take me through the next 10 years. Happily surfin' away :)

The best router
I have been using Netgear products for years. So I bought the Nighthawk BE6500 Wifi 7 Router because I recently changed internet services and it performs as I known Netgear to do times 10. My setup took less tha 20 mins and we have lighting fast internet on 30 plus devices. I will and have been recommending Netgear products.
