Review on πŸ” Rejuvenate Your Wi-Fi Network with the NETGEAR Renewed R8000-100NAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wi-Fi Router by Glen Elevyn

That's a beast. And that for the price of a refurbished one. Great upgrade and great price.

So far this has worked great. I kept getting buffering issues and reports of slow speeds well below what I'm paying for. I did a little research and found that the slow 20Mbps is due to our router and not the modem. I was supposed to get 100Mbps but I couldn't get around 20Mbps, sometimes only 17Mbps. Enter 8000 rubles. It arrived on time, earlier than planned. I connected and set it up. Checked for firmware updates. It was up and running within 30 minutes of repair, achieving incredible speeds of 120Mbps downstream and over 10Mbps upstream. It's faster than what I'm paying for at 20Mbps. I'm sure it would be a beast if it had to move faster. I no longer have buffering issues with Netflix, games, or YouTube videos. I love it. Note: This item is large. It takes up twice the space of our smaller Linksys router, but I don't have space issues, so grab it.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Maddening
