Do you want the best?
on November 17, 2025
Posted by: Jason
I purchased this router to replaced my old Nighthawk that reached end of service, that router never failed me and was always up to the task, the new replacement is mind blowing from its vertical design, strong security and rock solid connection, there is no better router in my opinion, Nighthawk is where it’s at. Don’t think twice, you won’t be sorry.

Upgraded Nighthawk Router Is Great
on November 18, 2025
Posted by: Dlovely888
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our old Netgear Nighthawk router support came to an end, so we upgraded to the suggested replacement which was the Nighthawk BE12000. The difference in coverage was immediately noticeable. Our Ring camera outside of our garage works 24/7 now instead of spotty coverage at best. My husband's internet connection for Teams meetings no longer has a constant lag throughout the meeting. I highly recommend this router.

The RS500 router has to be the best router that I've owned. Mid priced, Super Fast connection, easy installation and setup. Recommend this router!

I'm challenged by technology and I was able to install it so your directions were good.

RS500 Smart Purchase
on November 19, 2025
Posted by: NeverOld
Carrier: Xfinity - 1G download speed. I research everything so after buying a NETGEAR Nighthawk CM3000 MODEM it was time to upgrade my router. My pick was the NETGEAR Nighthawk RS500 Router and found I made a great choice. The afternoon I was setting it up I kept getting interrupted with text messages that I had to address. Yet going back into the NETGEAR app I could easily return to the setup sequence. Once installed my laptops and iPhone was showing 700-900 Mbps at every location in my one-story house. Even the Blink cameras, which received 1 or 2 bars on the furthest ones from the old router were now getting full bars. In short, no more lag time when streaming or surfing the internet. Another bonus is the design – slim with no external antennas – making it easy to place most anywhere your connection can reach. Highly recommend.

Netgear Nighthawk RS500 Router Rocks
on November 20, 2025
Posted by: Chris S
The router was easy to install, has a small footprint to fit in a better location than my previous router, and is blazing fast. The combination of Wi-Fi 7 with the new location in the center of my house has increased both range and speed across all of my devices. Issues of weak signal or low speed are gone. Very pleased with this purchase overall!
