Delivers very high throughput to multiple 802.11ac clients, Long list of networking and media-streaming features, High throughput to an attached USB 3.0 hard drive
Not the fastest 802.11ac router when servicing just one client, Overkill for homes with less-demanding needs, Very expensive
The Nighthawk X6 isn't for everyone, but if you need to support lots of 802.11ac clients, this is the best choice—for now....

Abstract: Is it ever the perfect time to buy a new product? I'd say no, because there's never a perfect time to review a new product, either. There's always something right around the corner that promises to be faster, better, cheaper. But you won't know if those c...
The all-new Netgear R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wireless Router has powerful hardware and excellent Wi-Fi data rates on the 5Ghz frequency band. When coupled with an external hard drive, the router also functions as a robust NAS server
The router has a buggy 2.4Ghz band and comparatively short Wi-Fi range, and -- when all is working as intended -- it doesn't perform any better than other AC1900 routers. It's also crazily expensive
Even when it's working well, the Netgear R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wireless Router has nothing to justify its expensive price tag....

The second 5 GHz radio can improve total throughput, %bull: OpenVPN server
Expensive, 5GHz radio assignment is simplistic
$300 is a lot to spend on a router, so they better be worth it. The R8000's value proposition is that its two 5 GHz radios will provide better total throughput utilization by separating "slow" and "fast" devices. It's not promising improved range. It's no...
