So What Does Wi-Fi 6 Buy You?

For those unfamiliar with the router, it works with all existing 802.11ac (and older) Wi-Fi devices and new Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) devices. The key benefits of Wi-Fi 6 over previous gen 802.11ac devices, are higher data rates overall, increased capacity for devices, improved power efficiency and in some cases longer reach. This router supports up to four simultaneous streams for additional capacity of multiple concurrent devices. It has four Ethernet ports on the back along with one Gigabit Ethernet port. Under the hood, it has a dual-core processor, a pair of amplified antennas, beamforming+, OFDMA, and supports Amazon Alexa voice controls. It also has an integrated USB port for creating cloud storage from a USB drive. Parental controls are baked in, and the device supports WPA2 wireless security protocols and has guest Wi-Fi access along with a VPN and firewall.

In other Netgear news, the company also debuted its Orbi Mesh Wi-Fi 6 routers back in September 2019.
