Netgear Nighthawk AX8 (RAX80)
Top performance and enhanced security go hand in hand with the Netgear Nighthawk AX8 (RAX80) Wi-Fi 6 router, which combines throughput that breaks through the gigabit per second barrier with malware protection and Disney's Circle app for blocking inappropriate content and managing family network use. The Nighthawk AX8 will operate just as well in the real world as it does in the lab, thanks to its exceptional performance through walls and floors.
It's not cheap — most of the finest Wi-Fi 6 routers are — but the RAX80 was simple to set up and allows you can customize the network to your liking. It has a 90-foot range as well, however it performed better around 50 feet, making it better suited to medium-sized homes. The Netgear Nighthawk AX8 (RAX80) is the Wi-Fi-6 router to acquire if you don't want to sacrifice on speed or security in practically any way.
