DO NOT BUY. you have been warned

I've had this system for a little over 3 months now. The first two and a half months seemed to be going well. The last two weeks have been an absolute NIGHTMARE. The Wi-Fi router restarts randomly throughout the day. First it was 1 time EVERY night for a few weeks, then 2-3 times a day, now 3-5 times a day DAILY. Firmware updated, rebooted, checked for cable issues, EVERYTHING. There are no explanations. This is where it gets GOOD. I call Netgear for help, they keep telling me I need to pay for

Pros
  • WIFI 6 - TRANSFER EVERYTHING FASTER: Simultaneously stream movies, games, video calls or files with 1.8 Gbps WiFi speed. Works with existing and new WiFi 6 devices including iPhone 11, Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy S10
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Difficult to set up, very unhelpful tech support

Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Network Netgear Nighthawk helped us a lot. It reliably distributes the signal to more parts of our office, which is good. Ever since we got it working properly, we've all noticed an improvement in connectivity. However, the installation was quite complex and surprisingly slow for two reasons. First, Netgear wants users to be able to control the system from their cell phones. The setup is geared towards using their mobile app, and this app is buggy and surprisingly inefficient. It…

Pros
  • EASY TO SETUP AND MANAGE: Plugs into your existing cable modem and sets up in minutes with the Nighthawk app - Easily manage WiFi settings at the device and network level, test the Internet speed and track data usage
Cons

Unused intranet WiFi speeds

We live in a square apartment on the second floor with a garage on the ground floor that we use for sports and crafts, so we got the TP-Link mesh system a few years ago. It worked great, but I was dying to buy something, so I "upgraded" to the Netgear MK63S. Internet traffic was great with no issues, but connection to other Wi-Fi devices on the network (even if they were connected to the same satellite) was almost unusable. Simple SSH connections from a MacBook Pro to a Linux server failed 3/4…

Pros
  • ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY LOAD: 1.5GHz quad-core processor, OFDMA, 1024-QAM and beamforming technologies. Supports WPA3 wireless security protocol. Includes SSID, WLAN guest access, DoS, VPN and more
Cons
  • The list goes on.

Easy setup, eliminate dead zones, but you have limited firmware speed on the satellite.

I contacted Netgear Support before I did this have written. I have 20 years of networking experience. Pros setup is easy. If you need more satellites from other packages, you can easily add them. It's through a website. The coverage and dead zone elimination is great. Satellite satellites have software-based Wi-Fi speed limits of up to 40-60% of the ISP's speed. Only sometimes. Application The application is good, but there will be work breaks. The free trial security add-on can only be…

Pros
  • SATELLITE COMPATIBLE: Expand your coverage area by 1500 square meters. ft. with any optional Nighthawk Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 MS60 Satellite Add-on (sold separately, not compatible with Nighthawk Tri-Band or Orbi WiFi 6 Mesh systems)

Easy setup - if you want it to be your router

This system has a lot Therefore; It's small, looks good and has a great signal. He also loves to be your router. If you want to set it up with default settings, it should be a walk in the park. Unfortunately, I already have a router that's fully set up, with lots of wired devices, some built in, with static IP addresses, and I don't want to set everything up again, so the default settings don't work for me. Not finding anything helpful in the documentation, I contacted tech support to see if I…
