Netgear Nighthawk RAXE500
The Netgear Nighthawk RAXE500 ranks 8th in the list of best Wi-Fi routers. It was the world's first Wi-Fi 6e router, and the results are astonishing. The Nighthawk RAXE500 boasts category-leading performance by combining the new 6-GHz band with Wi-Fi 6's already excellent capabilities — but at $599, it's not cheap.
In testing, this tri-band device delivered nearly 2.5Gbps of real-world data, more than living up to the expectations. When you combine this with the sleek design and many setup options, the Netgear Nighthawk RAXE500 emerges as one of the greatest wireless routers we've ever tested. While it works best in close quarters and is one of the most costly routers on the market, the RAXE500 is well worth the money if you require speed.
