Nighthawk RS300

Just did this - 7 people, 3 floors. Went through a few mesh systems (tplink be4800, be5000, XE75). Hated the way mesh worked, walked to another room device would hang on the further node and online games were choppier (higher ping and latency) than a single nighthawk (even had wired backhaul from ma

In your case, you will largely be focusing mainly on transmit power. Going with WiFi 6 as a older generation will allow you to get a relatively higher end model for less money, and thus more likely to get a WiFi router which will transmit at the FCC limits on the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band. While the clie

Wow, I just bought the Nighthawk WiFi 7 Tri-Band Router Model RS300 (aka: BE9300) I have the complete opposite experience than you. My Wi-Fi speeds and Ethernet Speeds have increased 4X On Xfinity I'm paying for 600Mbps On my old Router: Netgear WNDR4500v3 on my Cell Phones, I was only getting 100-1

Seconding this: Netgear Nighthawk RS300 on the top floor of a 3 floor 5,000sqft house, almost centrally located near the ceiling, and I have Wi-Fi throughout the house. I am planning on locating an AP out in the attached garage with hardwire backhaul and a 2nd AP further out in a large outbuilding,

Well my house with including basement is like 3200sq ft and we have PCs down there wirelessly connected to the network too. The RS500 was $299 brand new, the RS700 refurb was $349. So no brainer with the better specs to stick with the 700. I got them both and tested a few things, signal strength at

Even the cheaper Mesh systems without wired backhaul will suffer. You could go with a really expensive Deco system that has good wireless backhaul but you're looking at $800-1000. I have a 3500 sq ft house. Went through 3 deco (be4800, be5000, xe75pro) systems, Netgear nighthawks (rs300, 500, 700),

I tried the BE9300, wasn't happy with it. I ended up buying a refurb RS700S. The RS300 didn't have the push to get the internet across my house but its 3500sq ft. Even the corners where signal strength was like 60% are 90+ now. The Netgear Nighthawk RS700S is a beast of a router!

Some of the time it worked. Randomly I'd find the PC in the basement connected to the wrong node after it was forced to stay on another one. Or my phone would be connected to the one upstairs (even though I hadn't been up there in a few hours) when there's one in the same room I'm in (living room).
