Previous unit was N600 (c3700) and I have been extremely pleased with it's performance for years. Only upgraded because ISP speeds have increased and I noticed the c3700 was getting tired. CAX80 Nighthawk has some shoes to fill but came out of the box swinging....or flying rather.

Nighthawk WiFi 6 Modem Router
It was time to upgrade my cable modem and router. I bring my own to my internet provider. After doing a lot of research, I found out that with this model I would be able to get wifi speeds of 600 mbs per my provider. I could not believe how easy it was to set up. I called the internet company, gave them two pieces of info, downloaded the nighthawk app, and I was up and going in less than 10 minutes. I work from home and I use the Ethernet connection and I get speeds of 400 mbs and upload of 40 mbs . That’s really good considering we have 14 devices connected and using this. We are a streaming household and have wifi 6 streaming devices and it is so much faster to watch movies and shows. It’s crazy how much faster everything is! Plus this came with free internet protection trial!! Best purchase and worth every penny. This will also grow with us when we want to move up to the next speed tiers when it is offered, because this device supports up to 6gbs!! I’m so happy!!! ??

I really wanted to love this modem router combo as I've owned Nighthawk before but sadly I can't. Unless I'm sitting right next to the machine (which was over $500) is the only time I get the 1g speeds we're paying our isp for. If I want those speeds in the rest of my 3400 Sq ft house I need to spend even more money to buy a mesh system which may or may not even work. Feeling a bit taken advantage of with this purchase of what was a trusted brand.

I purchased this modem/router combo as it was one of the recommendations for my internet service. The set up was easy, had to make a couple calls and have it registered to my provider. So far it has given me a reliable connection and it's much faster than the one I was renting before. We use a lot of streaming and gaming at our household and have seen no slowdowns or interruptions on our service, despite having up to 4 devices streaming together. I definitely recommend it if your provider supports it.

Best modem router
I used the arris s33 with google nest router and 3 points before and I had to unplug / reset my internet almost daily and sometimes several times in a day. Since I've had this nighthawk I've not had any issues with internet dropping or lagging. I have at least 50 devices on wifi with my light bulbs, cameras, doorbell, ps4, computers, phones, speakers and multiple TV / rokus. They all work all the time regardless of if they need the 2.4 or 5 bandwidth. The app is great and easy to set up. I have optimum (previously suddenlink) internet provider.

After installing, connection to internet intermittently drops. Two cases were opened with NETGEAR, several calls were made to Xfinity, who sent a technician to the house, and I even contacted Samsung (tv brand) customer care. The cable modem router was received and installed 7/10/2024, and connection still drops when working on laptop. Item was purchased from NETGEAR, and it will be returned.

Outstanding Speed and Range!
My NETGEAR Nighthawk Cable Modem WiFi 6 Router Combo (CAX80) fixed my latency issues in my 2,500SF home. I had recently upgraded to 1GB service from my cable provider, but their modem/router combo was not providing the speed I purchased. I replaced the provider's modem/router with a Nighthawk CAX80. The improved speed noticeably faster in latency, speed, and flawless streaming! The setup was a breeze, just like all the testimonies said when I researched to find the best modem. I am a novice when it comes to technology, so I had to call Netgear's technical support. I was amazed with how fast they took my call and the efficient way they understood my issue and resolved it. Needless to say, I could not be any happier with my decision to purchase a Netgear product.

CAX80 - AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem Router
Having researched several combo modem/router, comparing technical specifications and capabilities for security, plus compatibility with ISPs, such as Xfinity, this unit has been a very valued purchase. While the Nighthawk app is not as efficient it works after a couple of restarts. The setup for the Nighthawk CAX80 - AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem Router was straightforward. I did have to call Comcast too register the Modem MAC address, as I was unable to get a good cell phone signal to configure myself. However, this was not a bad process as It allowed testing for ensuring full connectivity. Once I got the app running, I was able to set up full Admin controls plus setting up guest WiFi. The Nighthawk Armor works really well, so another plus. A quality product, fairly easy setup and highly recommeded.

Before purchasing the cable modem, I read many mixed reviews. Some people had a hard time setting it up and thought it wasn't worth the hype. However, because I had been using a Netgear modem for a while, I decided to give it a chance. The last one I bought lasted for almost four years without any issues.
I decided to make the purchase because the one I had was having connection issues. When I got it, I followed the instructions, which were easy to follow. I called my internet service provider, and within 10 minutes, it was up and running. Almost immediately, I noticed the difference in speed, and I'm so happy I decided to buy it. I highly recommend it.

Netgear: Better Buy
Bought this one to replace a competitor's Modem-router. Their new unit was defective right out of the box. Netgear has been in the business for many years, and has been a trustworthy partner with so many computer products. That is why I purchased from them.

I am happy with the modem/router. Set up was easy but nowhere does it tell you that you must register the device with Netgear in order for you ISP to function. I spent a lot of time before finding this out.

Fantastic Router When It Works
This is a fantastic router when it works. Great speeds that are adapting to the line upgrades from my cable company - no bottlenecks with this one. The Nightawk App is great for diagnosing and fixing issues, which I’ve had more frequently over the last 6 months. It will randomly disconnect, I’ll lose internet from cable provider for system upgrades, and it takes a long time to come back online. Annoying at first, I now seem to know the steps to get this router working again.

Upgrade for Xfinity
I have only had this modem 2 weeks but setup was easy and it does appear to be faster than our previous modem so I am pleased. The app that you download to your phone makes connecting and creating your own password simple. We were having some lag on gaming and this device took care of that.

Netgear Nighthawk - does what it says
At first I thought it wasn't working so I reached out to the seller and they responded promptly, offering a return or exchange.
The seller was polite and helpful at all times.
Before sending it back I took a better look at the manual. Whoops! My error. I just didn't give it enough time to cycle up properly.
Later when I couldn't get the 5 Ghz mode to connect I called the toll free support number. This was at 10:30 at night and I was expecting to get a message telling me to call back during business hours. Nope - I got through to a good support person in just a couple of minutes. He walked me through the process step by step and within 15 minutes or so 5Ghz was connected and working well.
Good seller, good product = happy customer.

NETGEAR Nighthawk CAX80 5 Stars
Purchased this modem as I took a basic cybersecurity class to find out my xfinity modem was failing a scan because it would respond to a ping. I also wanted all my devices like Ring doorbell, petcube, phones and tv’s to be behind a vpn so this Modem/router combo does this and passes the vulnerability scan. It’s a winner!

Incredible performance upgrade
I have owned a netgear modem few years ago, the cable company wanted to start charging for their modem so i got myself the CAX80. I had to call the cable company for part of the setup, it took around 3 hrs in all, so not the quickest for me. Its been running for a few days now, speedtest results are off the charts amazing, beyond my expectations . The range is much better than earlier modems , i have ever owned.
Everything works well with this router, my garage door opener didnt remain connected so i added an old wifi range extender in the garage , and that seems to be working good now.
Overall after everything has been setup, its stable and i am pleased with my purchase, totally recommend it to everyone!

Xfinity charges 15.00 a month for their modem rental so less than a year this will pay for itself and only help lower the bill long term.

CAX80 Nighthawk Router
The router works very well, however, it lacks a few settings in its web admin page. The router was extremely easy to setup and connect to my Xfinity cable provider - the whole process took less than 3 minutes. I set the new router to my old Xfinity Wifi settings and never had to change any of my other devices. The Wifi range is great and easily covers my 2400 sqft home, however, I still purchased the EAX15 Nighthawk Range Extender which provided me an additional 1800 sqft of coverage so that I could easily connect all of my outside Ring security cameras and lighting systems. The Nighthawk iPhone app does a good job of proving basic management of the router and extender. The admin web page on both devices provides higher level management. However, the admin page is missing a few basic functions: 1) Setting a custom timeout for the admin login as the default is way too short; 2) Setting a time to live for DHCP connections / forced renewals; 3) Capability to pick a connection and cause it to be immediately disconnected.

1st one would not work with comcast, had tech try a combo of theirs and speeds were gig. This one doesn't hold much promise so far.

Purchased after our Orbi router continously failed to connect to our modem. Now I just need to figure out how to connect our old Orbi tri-band system to Nighthawk router to extend coverage to the entire house.

The item arrived with no problems. Setup was a breeze with the Netgear app. It took about 20 minutes to complete
I went from about 95mps to over 570.
Being able to own my Router and not having to rent it was a plus also.
I would recommend this item to anyone.
Don't be afraid that you won't be able to set it up.

Lightning fast!
I am loving this modem router combo so far. I have xfinity wifi and fast speeds, this equipment can handle it with no problem. I also have an external hard drive plugged into the usb port in the back and I'm backing up my computer onto it. It's nice to have the combo so that eliminated having a separate modem and router adding space to my area. We are a household of streaming people. At any given time, we have at least 10-12 devices hooked up at the same time and everyone is moving at lightning speeds. Very happy with my purchase.

Second CAX80
This is my 2nd CAX80. I bought the first one used and it worked well for a couple years then started giving me issues. Figured it had reached it's limit in life so I bought a brand new one. It was definitely tume for a new router. All the lagging issues I was having with the previous router are gone. Hopefully I'll get a few more years out of the new one before it kicks the bucket. If not I purchased a plan so I can have it swapped if it gives me any issues. This modem/router does everything I need it to and then some so I am happy with it. Just wish premium parental control was included for the $500 price tag.

Fast and reliable box
The installation was easy to do. I have mediacom so it doesn't specify support until you look at the instructions it will have mediacom listed. I did research before I bought it and mediacom only supports 3.1 docsys however you spell it. After setup I tried the parental controls only downside is you have to pay but it's relatively affordable same with the security that they give 30 day free trial of it is worth the subscription on both parental controls are amazing allows you to see everything they are doing and can block websites or completely block access for any place that uses wifi the security allows you to have vpn access and real time site scanning to prevent malicious content. Speed definitely increased from my old modem/router

Netgear CAX80
I was having issues with my TV's and Computer dropping signal or taking a long time to connect to various programs. The CAX80 replaces my older modem + router combination and my issues ceased. The setup was made a little more difficult as I had to go through Comcast to recognize the unit and have it added to my account but the tech I talked to was great even though I was in the US and he was in Egypt. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase and how its really improved my connections. I think the CAX30 would probably work for most individuals but check the specs to see if the less expensive model will work for your needs. Otherwise, I wouldn't hesitate to spend the extra money to get the CAX80.

At first i was very skeptical on spending all this money on this router, but it was very easy to installed and activate through my xfinity app and the nighthawk app. It does take a little bit of time but it is worth it. Dual band works awesome and the range is way better than my Arris SBG6900-AC. Highly recomend this router.

Difficult to setup/App is Erratic At Best
Setting up Nighthawks are always painful. I was so traumatized with my RAX200 and EAX80. I have no choice and went with an Orbi. However Orbi is less talented, but straightforward. I went with CAX80, but it, too, is problematic. The App is being difficult.

Nighthawks or its App are Always Difficult
Orbis are more straightforward with setup and the app. Nighthawks are always painful to set up and its app is more than painful. There is always something. Like right now, I have no idea what’s going on with it. Accessing support starts with a ticket generated from the app. Getting Support is a pain. I don’t want to waste so much time with Support for what?

Serves a Purpose
The knighthawk gateway is pretty good. With the app you can set it up using your phone. You can also change setting thru the app. It has a lot of bells and whistles for you advance users.

Great Coverage
Bought this to boost my signal and speed around my house as well as loss my rental fee with xfinity. So far its done everything i wanted it to do. I now get reception in the furthest point in my house. My speeds have increased. And havnt had a problem with my ring cameras buffering anymore. I bought it renewed for less than 300 bucks and should pay for itself in less than 2 years. Overall a great buy.

Nice Router, crummy app
Setting the router up with a poorly written app was a PITA. (You have to reach the last page of the app and exit there for the router to activate. Setup through a built-in webpage is much easier IMHO.

Great router and modem
We love our Netgear Nighthawk Modem and Router, so far. It was very easy to setup and you can edit the name and password that are provided. You can test your connection and speed from within the Netgear app and so far we have not had any problems connecting the many devices we have. Although the initial cost seems high, you will pay more than that to rent one from your cable company over the course of your agreement with them.

Perfect Device
I’ve tried several Modem/Router combos in the past and this one has finally made me happy. Not only is it “future proof” but comes with great security features you won’t find in your ISP provided device. Was worth the research to find this one. I’m very picky with my tech gear, so I doubt you will be disappointed.

User friendly
Great accompanying app and ease of use. Set up was a breeze and the app was super intuitive and user friendly. Speeds and coverage are good, but my place is pretty small, so YMMV. Only gripe is that you only get a trial of Netgear Armor when other companies like ASUS give you free lifetime protection. Infuriating that this modem is my only DOCSIS 3.1 option besides the ISP-provided one from Optimum.

Lightning fast, even with my big family
Lightening fast since I dumped my ISP modem and got this. I have a household of 5 and usually my kids have friends over on the internet and haven’t had any issues yet. I can see who is on our network and approve or deny access with the app on my phone. With my old ISP modem, I would have to restart once or twice a day. I haven’t had to touch this one since I hooked it up. I can be at my neighbors house across the street and down a couple houses and still have good speed. Not to mention it is much more secure than the old modem. A bit pricey, but I won’t need to rent from my ISP now and it won’t be obsolete for years to come. I did a lot of research before I bought this and am very happy with it.

Worthwhile upgrade
We purchased the Nighthawk CAX80 AX6000 as an approved modem/router upgrade to connect to Xfinity. The speed increase is welcome, and it pairs nicely with our 2 NETGEAR EX5000 extenders. I had 1 issue, with my 5 Chromecast devices, Google Home, and hp printer connections arbitrarily being dropped. Long story, short, I unchecked the "Enable 20-40 MHz coexistence" box, and it fixed the problem. Not sure why. It was sheer trial and error, but it's now been a week, with no apparent negative effects.

Best Modem/Router Combo
This is the best modem/router I’ve ever owned. My favorite parts about it are the high level of adjustability the router setting provide you. I was able to turn off my 5ghz radio WiFi signal as well as decrease the strength of my 2.4ghz radio WiFi signal as needed. The WiFi 6 feature built into the router is top of the line and super fast. In addition, I did notice faster wired speeds with my 1.2 Gigabit internet speeds using this modem, and also this device has a very cool design. I also love the night hawk app that allows you to easily manage the router and modem. Overall, it’s worth the money and I have nothing bad to say about the CAX80.

I wanted them to replace the unit, as its defective and I'm within my 1-year warranty.

Fast speed and easy hook up
I have recently upgraded my internet speed to 1000 Mbps from Xfinity. NETGEAR Nighthawk Cable Modem WiFi 6 Router Combo (CAX80 is the best choice in the market. It is fast and easy hook up. I did call Comcast to connect the service because they need the MAC for the new device. So far I have not come across any issues after the setup. I am very happy for this purchase.

Outstanding Router
This router is, by far, the best router I have ever had. I will admit, it is a bit pricey. However, it’s worth every penny. The range is rated for 2,500sq.ft. and to some that may not be alot. However, I have noticed that I have great range and my speeds do not drop the further away i get from the router. I have solid speeds wether I am running a device wired or via wifi. I pay for a gigabit plan and it handles it without any issues. No fluctuating speeds. Its a strong constant connection. Also, the app that you can use for the router is a really cool feature. You can kick off devices or shut off wifi to it. Overall, this is an amazing router for those looking for something that is “future-proof” with outstanding reliability.

Awesome router
I was having xfinity connection issues. Everything would work fine - until just stopped working. Rebooting the router (10 minutes would be only thing that resolved. Tried replacing with new xfinity router - no luck. Bought this router. The problem has gone away.

Very buggy, bad support
I purchased this router hoping to get a top of the line unit. It matches all the specs but then slowly I noticed issues across the board. It started with enabling Dynamic DNS. The router would lose internet every 5 minutes and require a restart until eventually not working at all. We contact support, support hangs up on us mid call right after factory resetting the router while I’m out of town. Issue continues to happen. I login to the router and look at the logs for 2 minutes and identify it’s a DDNS issue. Disable DDNS and the router works fine now. Buggy buggy buggy!

Faster Stronger Longer
This thing is a machine! I had a Netgear AC1750 and it was great, but 30 plus devices needing WiFi in my home the bandwidth just wasn’t there when there was heavy traffic on the network when you needed it the most. I had to also install a Netgear Powerline AC1000 to run my Ring Flood light because the AC1750 could get a strong or fast enough signal out. Now with this thing I have strong fast signals through the home and I don’t need to use the Powerline to do it which means lean and mean networking in my home! I love the nighthawk app I can see what’s connected and even shut connections off if they don’t get used often. I love checking my speed from a reliable source and I love that have all of this in a package that will last me for years and I am future proof for the foreseeable future. Wi-Fi 6 isn’t offered by your cable company yet and I have no monthly fees!

Reliable and strong connection, inside and outside
We were forced to upgrade our router when we found out the reason our old router was not working was because our provider no longer supported it. We were very impressed by the Up/Down speeds of this new router after debating spending so much more for the hype. I tell you what, it certainly lived up to the hype! We now have range into the basement, garage, and surrounding yard at full connection and speed with this bad boy. It eliminated any need for a mesh system, repeaters, or boosters as we had previously.

This was my final try!
This modem + router was my last resort for better internet speeds and distance coverage. In the past month of September I have been through 3 different modems!! It’s been frustrating finding a modem during these tough times to keep up with school, meetings, working, etc. During this Pandemic needed a better modem + router and having this modem + router (CAX80 made it easier for my family and I to connect online simultaneously without any interruptions as of now. I plan on using this for 5+ years! The price is high but if it’s giving the connectivity I need then it’s worth the buy. Technology is changing and this will last for awhile because of its capabilities with WiFi6. Highly recommend this buy since this device just came out this year! So it’s the latest technology you will be purchasing.

Had upgraded my internet speed with comcast to 600Mbps, my previous router was bottlenecking the full speed so I upgraded to this one. Its easily the best router in the market right now. Blazing fast speeds, very solid built security feature you can access on the iOS app and best of all its future proof so you won’t need to upgrade in the next 5-6 years.

this is a weird review
I purchased this combo router modem unit because the unit supplied by Spectrum was not up to the task of handling the number of smart devices i had in the office. I installed it and it fired up as it was supposed to but i had a connection issue that I spoke with Spectrum about. As it turns out this unit works well with a standard residential account but I have a business account and Spectrum told me that i had to use their routers and modem in order for them to guarantee their higher speeds. They offered to upgrade my modem router equipment for free. So I ended up sending back my Netgear Nighthawk back to Amazon. No questions asked. I love their customer service.

wifi reliability
I have had the cax80 for 4 months now and the reliability for wifi is very bad. When it works, it's great but logging onto your computer to work from home & finding out that the wifi is not working is a real pain. I've worked with NG Tech support, learned how to change channels & rebooted everything many times including factory reset several times. Trying to see if Win 10 network adapter needs updating but states it's the correct one. Not sure if Nord VPN could be a problem, but I need help or suggestions for this $450 paper weight.

You must call xFinity or (ISP) regardless...They will add this router to your account...Make sure they do a refresh to your account, so you can get whatever speeds you're paying for...I'm running 8 devices on the 5G port only, the 2.4 port is not broadcasting (I) turned it off in the settings...All I can say is:"WOW!" Blazing fast internet, streaming, no drop calls, fast download 4K movies, Spotify, or whatever we're doing!

Great solution
We had a 6 year old nighthawk which we replaced because of working from home and additional devices on WiFi! CAX80 was the right solution for our upgrade! Easy install using the app! After installation the speed test was amazing! Our buffering and lag time were virtually eliminated! Extremely pleased!!

Modem Upgrade
I purchased the Netgear CAX80 to upgrade the speed of my modem. There were some hiccups initially with the speeds I was seeing on the CAX80, but after restarting a couple times I think that is resolved now. But I still have an issue that the 2.5 gbit LAN is providing slower speeds (<100 Mbps) to my Samsung TV than the WiFi is. I confirmed with a speed test on the TV, as well as the Amber indication for the 2.5 gbit light on the front of the modem/router.

DONT BUY FIRMWARE IS JUNK
Several problems over the course of 3+ month usage.
DNS resolve is slow have to specify google DNS 8.8.8.8.
Modem resets it self to factory default after reboot wiping out configuration.
Can not restore configuration, yes it loads and reboots after the restore, but if you have any ip address reservation they are lost, unacceptable.
The user interface is awkward.
Purchased from Netgear and want a refund to buy a standalone cable modem.

This modem router is so easy to set up and it’s so fast. I read a review that this router registers download speeds of 350Mbps for a plan of 300Mbps. I didn’t believe it until I saw that with my own eyes(I signed up for 300Mbps plan with Comcast) Even the cable technician was surprised by that. This is a great modem and won’t disappoint you. I highly recommend this modem router. The price is a little high but it’s worth it.

Nighthawk Swoops In!
I have a two-story condo with a lot of brick. My office is at the highest and most furthest point from my router (after optimal placement). With the pandemic grounding most of us in business, I have been conducting online meetings rather than in person. My kids are both learning remotely and my wife is also conducting online meetings. My old router was dying. I upgraded and that one was still dying. I decided to upgrade to the Nighthawk and increase my data plan to 1000 MB per second. Blammo, problem solved! The hardware and bandwidth is so important when it comes to these online meetings. I highly recommend Nighthawk if you have a large space, just make sure you give it the bandwidth it needs to download and upload to its full capability. You’ll be very impressed, enjoy!

Dashed Expectations
The app didn’t work to setup my equipment with Comcast and it took them an hour to get it working. After ten minutes of great speed, the modem died. Considering I paid $455 for a device that failed so quickly doesn’t inspire me to try again. I am so disappointed and kept my Netgear AC-1900, the performance sucks but at least I have internet.

Faster and more stable than WiFi 5
Upgraded from the C7800 and noticed the difference almost immediately. I get more stable and consistent coverage all throughout the home. I also get better and faster speed test results than the C7800. I also upgraded my access point downstairs using another WiFi 6 router (setting it up in access point mode and wow! Far better speed and coverage than the previous WiFi 5 router + access point setup. I have my smart tv and computer connected downstairs and everything is so much better now. I work from home and can stream movies without lag or dropped connections, all while the other people in my household upstairs do the same and noticed the significant improvement while gaming and streaming, etc. If you're looking for a router/modem upgrade with WiFi 6 I'd definitely recommend this one.

A Fantastic New-Generation Router/Modem!
I set up my CAX80 a week ago, bought through Amazon where it's now available. My ISP is COX and this unit takes full advantage of the their gigablast plan (I'm getting 940Ghz Ethernet/500+Ghz on 5GWifi separated by 3 rooms). It is capable of far greater speeds, but I'd have to wait for future COX plan upgrades. Installation was simple and straightforward.
One reason I decided to get the CAX80 is that Netgear provides router firmware updates for this newest model of router/modem. This is separate from the modem firmware that the ISP automatically supplies and updates.
...One thing about that, NETGEAR ARE YOU LISTENING? You need to add the CAX80 router firmware versions to the Download Center, they aren't showing up there and we need them in case of any issues requiring a reinstall.
I'm very happy with the CAX80's performance and highly recommend it!

I’m a gamer, I have a multitude of devices connected, and this modem/router handles them all very well. Skip the I.P. and use the user friendly app to set everything up. It’s really great to have access from anywhere using your smartphone. The range is right at where it says, it’s on the far end of my house and doesn’t quite reach through all the walls to get to the other side. I plan on adding the WiFi extender soon. This modem was a huge upgrade from my previous modem and I’m having excellent results so far. TL;DR great router, user friendly app, easy setup

Great upgrade
Was on the market for a new modem and waited a bit and came across the new CAX80. Generally I would not have considered a combo unit but after some research I bought this unit. It arrived within a few days and the initial set up was so very easy especially with the app guiding you step by step. Once I got it set up and connected I was back online, probably a total of 15 minutes from unpacking to being online again. Tested the wireless connection throughout the house and there has been a huge upgrade from my previous router. Speeds are concistently high and I have not seen any issues with being on video conference calls while others may be streaming or gaming. Great product and I am very happy with this.

Super all in one unit!
I was a beta tester and have used the unit since October. I did receive the unit for free for testing. I have used several different router/modem combinations over the years and this is by far the best. The wi-fi coverage is excellent in my entire 2500 sq ft 4 level home, probably due to the wi-fi 6 and AX features. I love Smart Connect which gives the 2.4 and 5 ghz bands the same SSID and allows your devices to choose which works best for them. This all in one unit allowed me to get rid of the extra cables and power supplies needed for separate modem and router units. I run between 25 and 30 different devices on my network including I-Phones, Macs, Amazon Echo devices, Tivo's Roku, Apple TV and a home security system. No issues with any of my devices dropping off or not playing well with this unit. A very good choice for upgrading to DOSIS 3.1, wi-fi 6 and getting the fastest speeds from your cable network. I have Xfinity 300/10 service and it works great.

Works great
I bought this to replace a 5-yr old cable modem provided by spectrum. Fairly easy to set up, had to make a 15 minute call to spectrum so that they could update and recognize my new cable modem. I bought this because of all the streaming devices that we have in the house. Now that there are two adults working from home, and a daughter taking online classes from the community college, we needed something a little more hardy. I have had it hooked up for about two weeks now, not one single problem. There are four of us, and if we are all streaming at night, there is no delay. Worth the money, and it even gives better coverage than my previous one, I have a 3500 sq.ft. house, and I still get wifi and signal outside when working in the yard. I would recommend.

Way faster and better than Xfinity’s modem
So we went from the WiFi 6 Xfinity modem, which we had to reset at least 2 times a week. We have not had to reset, or do any special settings for this modem to work. We also get about 50mbps more with this modem. I have been getting about 940mbps constantly since we put this modem in. With the Xfinity modem we would get 400mbps one day, and get 800mbps the next day. Get this modem, you will not regret your purchase!!!

Mixed feelings
I had high hopes for this device. Since I made the switch, I have been rebooting the appliance daily. WiFi is not available at times, and when I log in to the router to reboot, I get a lag and have to unplug it physically. Multiple times I've got the error "Security Token expired" while I was working in the router, even if I just logged in and attempted something. I have had Xfinity out to check the lines and the connections, and everything is right on their end.

This device dramatically improved the quality of the wi-fi in our home almost immediately. The set-up was relatively easy and straightforward. I strongly recommend it over the provided devices from the cable companies!

Totally worth it!
We’ve had it hooked up for about a week and some days and this thing is amazing. We have about 30 devices across 3700 sq/ft and it is running speeds of at least 250 mbps at the farthest points in the house and around 120 mbps at the street another 100 ft away. Super easy to set up and use. Highly recommended. Would buy again.

Future-proof
Disclaimer: This was provided to me at no cost for testing purposes.
My main concern with a 2-in-1 device was updates. Normally in a cable modem, the ISP controls the release schedule. With the AX8, the router firmware can be updated independently of cable modem firmware.
This device has rock-solid performance; wireless coverage and speeds are excellent in both WiFi 5 and 6 configurations.
Even with WiFi6e around the corner, I feel this modem-router combo will fulfill the needs my home for the foreseeable future.

The setup was quick and easy, and it delivers much faster speeds than the Xfinity rental equipment I had (X-Fi). This will handle increases in speed for years and eventually pay for itself by not paying the equipment rental fees. I also like the switch on the back to turn off the led lights.

Getting this modem setup was hard. Not that it was Netgears fault but because Cox insisted it was a Netgear fault I spent nearly ten minutes on hold to get a person from another country. I will say however that once we crossed the language barrier I was convinced it was a Cox issue. I finally found a smart person on the other end at Cox. The speed difference is noticeable. I don't have giga speed but would not be afraid to use this modem. The phone app is not real usable for much but monitoring. Good luck with your purchase. Insist on your cable provider checking your authentication on their network

Night Hawk Netgear
I recently purchased the night Hawk Netgear modem and router combo. I made this purchase because I thought I needed an updated product. After all, my Internet was prolonged, and Xfinity indicated that I had an outdated modem, which could be the reason. I spent over $400 on this product, and the results were the same. I will increase the bandwidth with Xfinity, and I will update my review if there is a difference.

The application to monitor your devices is very nice, individually turn off access as need with a push of a button. Use the smart option and the modem auto feds 2.4ghz or 5ghz to the devices that need it. Play multiple game systems online and streaming without buffering. I personally use xfinity and have about 20 evinces connected to, game systems, phones, iPads, cameras, thermostats, smoke detectors etc. Well worth the price!

Rokus, fire sticks, phones, tablets, work and school laptops, PlayStation and pc gaming. Wish we had done it sooner. We will save a ton on the equipment rental fee from our internet provider too.

Defective Product
The CAX80 was a bad purchase. When setting it up, the device went into a software update. After that, I was no longer able to connect to the device. My call to Netgear got transferred twice and I was told the Nighthawk team would have to assist. After the last transfer I was left on hold for about an hour. Since no one was able to provide a solution, I ended up returning to the store. Would of been nice if the CAX80 worked out. It had all the advertised features I was hoping for. If someone could of provided assistance and helped to get it working properly, I would have kept it.

This NETGEAR Nighthawk Cable Modem WiFi 6 Router Combo is great. I’ve been purchasing NETGEAR modems or routers for years and they never let me down. When it comes to quality and reliability, this is the way. I had to update my combo modem and router to achieve my faster internet needs since I had it for years and recently bought this Nighthawk CAX80 Combo and I am pleased to say it was a great choice in my part and happy to see NETGEAR continues to deliver such well made devices. If you want to save some space and have a built dual system and still have that unstoppable performance then this is a great choice. Thanks NETGEAR.

Reconsidering my purchase
I bought this to upgrade from another netgear router/ modem unit. Installation was easy and performance is great. I however have lost the wifi calling function on cell phones. I have Xfinity as my ISP and T-Mobile is my cell provider. No one can figure out why wifi calling no longer works. Everything worked fine until I changed to the CAX80. I have an open ticket with Netgear but they cannot figure out what the issue is. I have also been on the phone with T-Mobile tech support. After researching the issue I have seen other users with the same issue. Netgear needs to research and resolve this issue. This was an expensive purchase that I am starting to regret.

Strong Combo-unit with WiFi 6, Docsis3.1, 2.5Gbe
Disclaimer: I was part of an early Netgear test group, providing feedback to Netgear on early samples. I received an early model of this unit free of charge, however that does not influence my opinion.
I am not usually a big fan of combo units, I personally prefer to have separate modem and router as it allows me to better micro manage my home setup and I can pick and choose different items to test at the same time. With that said, IF I was to use a combo unit or recommend a combo unit, this would likely be the top contender. It has most of the key points I would look for:
- DOCSIS3.1
- WiFi AX (6) (4x4 on both 2.4 and 5.0) offering 8 streams
- At least one post over 1Gbe, this offers 2.5Gbe
- Since modem is built in, you can use 2.5Gbe port for your local network seeing theoretically higher than Gigabit speed on your local LAN -> WAN.
Throughout the beta, the unit operated as expected especially after a few driver updates and ended up being a solid performer. I live in a ~2,000 sqft home with a basement and I was able to get coverage of both 2.4 and 5.0 bands throughout the home.
Some of the downsides at least to me, MU-MIMO and OFDMA have not proven in reality (at least an end user home environment) to give really world benefits. Perhaps that will change in the future, but as of now this is not a selling point to me.
As well, since the unit is dual band, if you wanted to use this in some type of wireless bridge setup, you have no dedicated backhaul so you would want to use a wired backhaul.
Last point is WiFi 6 (E) seems to be on the horizon, so I don't think this unit would see that upgrade, and will remain at WiFi 6.
Outside of the two opinions I have a above, I think this is a very solid unit. It's offering all of the major check boxes on the market today all in one unit, and works reliably in a day to day basis which in the end is the most important thing in the end.

Main problem, would not work with my VPN to connect to my desktop at my office. Spoke with NETGEAR’s tech support for over two hours to no avail. The second issue I noticed was the speed was not as fast as it should be. We have Xfinity blast, my old modem we we’re running at 330 Mbps. On the new modem just over 200 Mbps. Very disappointed in this purchase, took it back a received a full refund. Will never buy from NETGEAR again.

I added up all the money have spent over the last 4 years on just renting the device from the company and it opened my eyes to want to save that money. I knew I’d have to buy a nice reliable device that I know will last so I chose netgear. I have had great experience and have friends who have had great experience with netgear.

Best Cable Modem Router on Market
I had been using the C3700 cable modem router for the past 3 years and observed wifi speeds max out at around 45 Mbps on a 100 Mbps plan. After switching to the CAX80 I am seeing consistent speeds of 120 Mbps on the same 100 Mbps plan. The router is easy to configure and manage connected devices with and has "future-proofed" my home should I move to a gigabit plan in the future.

There's tons of features you can read about in the above but the one feature that I appreciate the best is the fact that the firmware for the modem is now separate from the router portion. Meaning your router portion can now get updates independent of the modem. This is critical as its one of the major con's of combo devices.
In terms of speeds, it routinely pulls 1.1-1.2gig from my xfinity service. I then use it to feed my orbi system. My home needed a mesh system to appropriately cover the whole home. Even my RAX200 couldn't do it.
And I was able able to hit >1gig speeds using a Intel AX200 card. I was pretty close to the router but its the first time I've hit >1gig service from wifi.
I did get the device free as a Beta Tester through Netgears beta program.

Easy and awesome!
Super easy setup. It’s fast and worth every penny! The app is great! Having control of all your gear connected to your modem is beyond fantastic. Being able to check tour speed. Setting up a guest wifi connection. All are features that makes this purchase worthy! I love it and would totally recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their modem/router like I did. Without tech support.

Great Performance, But Died After 48 Hours
I love the performance and the capabilities, but 48 hours after start up, it completely died and will not power on. Tested the power supply and it is good, but no power on. It's going back to the store and will be replaced with another brand as this has caused me to lose faith in Netgear.

Best WiFi and ease of use.
I finally decided to ditch the rental modem bandwagon and buy my own. After looking for one, I decided to go with a modem and router combo. The ease of set up was easy. Simple call to Cox and it was activated. Using the app to set the modem up was easy enough. Quickly changed my pass words and was ready to go. After the firmware update, I like the Armour feature that protects my connection from unwanted connections and helps my family from dangerous ads. Number one, fast and simple. The app is an excellent companion to use.

Improvement over ISP Modem
I’ve been using the Comcast modem for years but continued to have performance issues with mainly upload speeds and download speeds on occasions with my old ISP router. I finally purchased this modem and couldn’t have been happier with the instant results of consistent speeds compared to what I previously had. Highly recommend this modem/router if you have many devices and need better performance.

Pretty Good
The cable modem is strong. I currently have a 200 mbps internet speed XFINITY plan. Modem was simple but not smooth to set up. My app could not find the cable modem. I go all the way to the last step, and it couldn’t connect to modem and had to trouble shot with Comcast. Finally an hour later the Comcast guy got it to connect to his device. After setup completion I changed my passwords again. This modem is pretty strong. The only performance problem I encountered (thus far) was, one night, when I streamed YouTube, live tv, and had used another computer all at once. Should be no problem for this beast. However, I was unable to do this and had to strip streaming YouTube videos so I could watch tv without fuzzy pictures and delayed audio. I will need more time to stress test this product before I can give it a 5. I’m a bit skeptical it can do what it claims after that incident but I’ll see.

Stop renting equipment
This item is a must for anyone running a business from home! Stop paying hundreds of dollars renting equipment and purchase your own! I was renting a gig box from my provider, and after purchasing the nighthawk, my internet is close to 20x faster without updating the service otherwise! Do yourself a favor and get the most from you internet.

Not sure yet, but as of now, not happy at all.
I just installed and hooked this up yesterday and csn say so far I'm not happy nor am I impressed. I was previously using Cox Comm's Panoramic wifi device and must say, I was actually getting faster speeds with that. I pay for 300mb dl and with this new device, on 2.4 I'm getting around 20 to 30mbps and 5 is around 270ish. With Cox's device, my new Galaxy Note 20, on 5 I was getting around 330mbps. Now, with the Nighthawk app, it keeps displaying "unregisted device" and I can't see any devices connected on either channels. You'd think for the price tag of around $450, this thing would outperform the rented equipment, but not in this case.

Great performance
Our Nighthawk R7000P mysteriously couldn’t transmit beyond 30mbps on wifi, so I bought this one to replace it and our dated cable modem. A solid performer. We have 170mbps in our house now, easy to setup, easy to manage with the app. My Win 10 laptop had a hard time seeing the networks but after I knocked the transmit speed down to 54mbps all of a sudden one showed up! Oddly it could see other people’s 5G networks but not my own. Anyway, I love it. Hope you do too.

Best Router/Modem Combo Ever!!
This router/modem combo is the best I have ever owned! It can take even the slowest internet and make it “snappier”! Simply put, you cannot go wrong buying this router/modem for you and your family. I couldn’t be happier about this purchase! It even outperformed my expectations and I rarely get surprised about router/modem combinations! I mean this Netgear combination has made a huge difference in our home! The transformation was noticeable right away and we upgraded from a Netgear Nighthawk router/modem combo that we had purchased almost 5 years ago and that one was still going strong at the time of upgrading. Even if you do not have any internet 6 technology in your home yet, you are making a great investment by purchasing this Netgear Nighthawk CAX-80 router/modem. If you want the latest technology that is customizable, and has the latest features, then look no further than this beauty! Everyone in our family agrees that we made a great choice purchasing this product and you would be making one too; if you decide to take a “leap of faith”. At the time of purchasing, we purchased the last available unit at our local Best Buy! Made the purchase even more exciting! Lastly, thank you Netgear for another great product!! Keep up the great work!

This cutting-edge router was very simple to set up. All I did was plug it in and called my ISP to initialize it. The quick setup guide was well written. I called their technical support number because it was taking a while for the router to work. They were very polite and helpful. It took a little longer than I expected to work because the software was updating itself. I highly recommend this router!

Excellent WiFi Coverage
Cox cable is upgrading to Docsis 3.1so I upgraded my cable modem router to the Nighthawk CAX80. I used the Nighthawk app for setup and called Cox to finish the setup on their end. Setup was a breeze and after a firmware update I was up and running. I also setup the Nighthawk EAX80 mesh extender to the CAX80. That setup was even easier with the Nighthawk app. I didn’t have to call Cox for that setup. We get max upload and download speeds from our internet plan and we couldn’t be happier, 300 mbps download 30 upload. Zooms calls don’t lag and streaming content is spot on. I almost didn’t buy either one because of the negative reviews I read. The positive reviews outnumbered the bad ones, but I still had doubts. My doubts are over and Everything works well together. I would recommend both products based off of my positive experience with both items.

Just amazing!
I bought this modem specifically for gaming and having multiple devices connected to it at once. I really thought it wouldn’t hold up, but I was proven wrong! A total of 7 devices were connected and not once did we have interruptions or connectivity issues! Out of all the modem/ routers I have purchased in the past, this right here would be the best I’ve ever had. Having also armor activated is a life saver. My kids watch YouTube and when ads come up with links armor comes on and blocks them due to scams. I really recommend getting the nighthawk cable modem WiFi 6 router combo. For reliability and safety!

Modem and Router combo
Bought this modem and router about a week ago. It came in a very efficient box with no extra wasted packing material. The package included the router and modem itself, a power cable, and then a connection cable. The set up was pretty easy. Directions were to download an app on my phone and then follow those directions. Worked wonderfully. My only issue at all was when I tried to contact Comcast as the directions advised. So far the actual product has been amazing. My internet speeds are finally up to what I was paying for. Have had no interruptions or issues at all. Great product!

This modem router combo works better than our old nighthawk seems to be more reliable. The setup was the easiest I have done and the nighthawk armor is amazing.

Excellent Wi-Fi across the entire house!
This was very easy to set up. The Wi-Fi is very extensive and excellent across a 2000 square foot home. Multiple devices can run at once it has plenty of ports to run ethernet cables for hard-wiring as well.

Good value
I cut the cord on regular cable TV sevices and Internet services and in the process found a better deal on a better I.P. The Nighthawk seems to be fast and the wi fi distance is incredible. Thank you Netgear!!!

So far the device works as expected. I tried to call customer service during setup for an issue and I never got through. I was able to resolve the problem on my own. The Amazon reviews warn of poor or no customer service so don’t buy unless you are technically sound and can trouble shoot your own problems.

Amazing Quality
Decided to purchase the Nighthawk Cable Modem as the quality of Suddenlink’s equipment was unbearable. Went from lagging calls, dropped video calls and spotty connection to air tight quality, no dropped calls and amazing quality throughout. Would highly recommend the Nighthawk and already had my neighbor upgrade his equipment after my experience.

Fantastic Router
Upgraded from a 2 year old small basic router that was also a Netgear. Didn’t think I needed to upgrade but spent the dollar anyways and this thing definitely carried its weight. I have been renting a private server and we have 3 platforms running games and have not had a single issue. Reason for 4 stars - I get random emails now about charging my card for antivirus protection. Pretty certain it happened since I created my Netgear account with the CAX80.

Easy set-up
Bought the Netgear Nighthawk CA-80 to replace my Xfinity/Comcast cable modem since it is listed as compatible with the Xfinity wifi. The Nighthawk model CA-80 is both a cable modem and wifi router, so you can stop paying for cable company equipment. Super easy to install and it connected right away to the Xfinity Internet package. This model also can handle up to 8 streaming devices at one time and covers approximately 3,000 sq feet in your household. The wifi signal is strong in all rooms and on all devices while the kids are using it and I’m watching my Roku stuff upstairs. Well worth the money and it should last long enough (even buying refurbished to more than pay for itself by eliminating the cable box rental.

Amazing fast reliable modem router
This netgear nighthawk CAX80 wifi 6 modem router is very easy to set up with comcast Xfinity. It has been a week now and there has been no disconnect. My current plan is 600mbps and I am getting the full speed with ethernet cable or wifi. I think the fastest Xfinity plan is 1200mbps and I am certain this modem router will definitely give that speed since it has 1 ethernet port that is rated up to 2.5gbps and the other 4 ports is 1gbps each. Wifi should provide up to that speed also as long as your device is wifi 6. Very happy with this netgear nighthawk wifi 6 CAX80.

Great combo router
Netgear's Nighthawk app for this device made router set up very easy. It was a little tricky to activate the modem via the ISP app.The device itself is very good. The features are quite standard these days. For me, this was a significant upgrade from my old A/N router from a decade ago. I am most impressed with the significantly improved speeds. I also appreciate the device management capabilities via the web portal and app; such as ReadyShare, Access Control, and VPN apps. Netgear knows how to make high-performance devices easy-to-use.It was at a decent price, compared to other devices on the market. This device should be future-proof, for quite a while.

Iv had a NETGEAR modem for a while. I had a used AC1600 WiFi Cable Modem Router when I finally decided to upgrade a newer model. I saw that Amazon had a New NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK which I had never heard of a nighthawk modem before. it was on sale and had pretty good reviews so I bought it! It arrived same day and I set it up. It has been way more then I thought it would be! With 4 channel Ethernet cord hook up and with a Multi gig port as well! It’s Wi-Fi speeds with all my devices is lightning fast with no bogging issues it has up to 10gbps of download built in. I could go on but Honestly it’s worth full price. I would highly recommend and would buy again!

This replaced the useless junk optimum gave us. It was harder to set up than advertised, partially due to the cable/internet company optimum but also net gear tech support was not helpful. I almost returned it. Now it’s working well. The only issue is the option to auto switch between 2.4 and 5, when selected my laptop would not stay online, on for 20 seconds then off for 20 and repeat. I turned off the auto switch and it stays now, but now we have to manually switch which is dumb. Tech support couldn’t help.

The CAX80 was not a good fit for my LAN. After two days of trying two different modems with Netgear support spearheading the effort, conflicts with the ISP could not be resolved. The modem was returned for a full refund. Netgear and the support team were professional, courteous but still a frustrating experience.

Fast speed, easy transition.
Good setup, hopefully the last one I have to purchase for years to come. (Until the move to fiber in my area The app has trouble connecting for a while, had to reset the nighthawk a few times even though it was working, it wasn’t showing up in the app. I would say if you have lots of smart devices in your home and the router is the same frequency change the name and password to the same name and password as your old router and your devices will jump right over like nothing ever changed. I have 22 connected devices and changing the name is way easier than converting 22 devices over. Good overall product, but it is quite pricey.

NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK SERIOUSLY EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS
I’m not one to post reviews but, to get to the point, this Nighthawk modem is worth buying. It’s fantastic. It works beyond what you’d expect, and comes with security services that provide a new level of protection and peace of mind. Well worth the price. You will feel good about buying the Nighthawk. And ok, you have to agree it’s a great name. LOL

Failed in 14 months
I bought this "state of the art" modem/router combo and it failed in 14 months. Out of warranty and tech support has no idea what is wrong with it. Its in the closet in the original box and I am using a WOW modem rental currently. It worked great until it didnt. I started looking at non Netgear options for a replacement. If they would at least help with the replacement, I would give the modem another try. All of my previous purchases were Netgear products but this failure immediately after the warranty expired really ticked me off. The replacements from Motorolla and Linksys all have 2 year warranties. So disappointed.

Love this new router
I like the Netgear CAX80 router I recently purchased. Love how I can see what devices are connected on the Nighthawk phone app and how it scans devices and network for any threats. I can also reboot, check internet speed and more on the app. I gave it 4 stars as I had trouble during the setup trying to connect to my laptop. I was able to connect my printers with no issues, but the laptop was a problem for me. May have been me, but I was able to get it connected after approx 45-50 minutes. This router was recommended by my son.

Best Router Yet
I have always liked the quality of the Netgear modems and routers and this has been the best combo I’ve purchased so far. It’s great but now I need my internet provider to improve so I can get what I paid for. It’s communicating within my network as described by the router, but when I try through the internet it is so slow. 400 mbps is what I pay for and I’m lucky to get 25-30 mbps download speed when my WiFi through my Xbox is just shy of 800 mbps. Can’t wait to get another option for cable internet provider.

After Support Terrible - BUYER BEWARE!!!
I bought this Cable Modem in February 2021 and they only give 90 DAY SUPPORT on an technical issues. In August of 2021 the modem stopped delivering the speed it promised as I am getting 1.3 TB from my Interenet provider but only getting between 180 Mbps and 220 Mbps from the Modem. So, I have the Internet service provide come out at my expense to check the internet server and it was troubleshooted that the modem is going bad.
Contacted Netgear support and they said that if it is a hardware issue it is covered as my warranty do not expire until February 2022. When I was transferred to the next level for them to troubleshoot the hardware, I was flatly told they cannot help me as my phone support is expired. $462 down the drain as i will junk it and get something else and I will never buy Netgear again.

This has been the most difficult router that I’ve owned. It took over an hour the first night to get Comcast connected. About the same time the second night to get my router set up so I use the Internet. I’ve yet to get my WiFi printers hooked up or my Bluetooth washer and dryer. This has been more stressful than I ever thought it would. Not happy so far.

Powerful machine
We purchased the CAX80 WiFi 6 Router combo for our new Xfinity service. The technician was able to connect it with ease since this is a certified router for Xfinity. Our speed was 1 gig a second from the get go with this great machine. The range is excellent as well and we have not required a mesh Wifi extender since its installation. Follow the simple instructions included with the device. VERY IMPORTANT: After the CAX80 is connected to the internet, you must use a device that is connected via Wifi, not wire/LAN to the router when performing the set up process. Once you open the wireless connection, you will be prompted to create your admin login and password. We have a vast array of smart devices in the house and the CAX80 handles them all with the greatest of ease. Excellent, powerful machine! Worth the investment!

good for one year 1 day
this was a good router for a year and a day and it stopped working dead. customer support was useless did nothing said they could not connect to it, of course its dead. spent 500.00 on this to die at the year mark, bad thing is it was in use less than a year had to wait for back order and shipping.

We recently signed up with Xfinity and decided to buy this modem router to support the internet package bought. So far, we love it! It’s easy to use, and the app which you can download on your phone makes it very convenient to change passwords and check internet speeds.

Only had this for about a week now, but it’s already (just about living up to it’s price. Which is bad parental control built-in but my kids are older now so it’s not really a huge issue. Huge improvement over the Linksys Velop mesh setup a had.

Great coverage
We have a 1700 sq ft split level ranch. The cax80 is positioned in the center of the main floor. Coverage in the house exceeds my needs at speeds that max out what our iPhones and wifi devices can pull down. With a wired connection I get the top speed I pay for. When the ISP Tech came out to start our service he went on and on about how impressed he was with the cax80, even took a photo of the front of the box so he could recommend it to others.

Smoking Fast!
Upgraded to the newest Nighthawk CAX80 and what a difference! This thing smoked the old Nighthawk. DL speeds increased 20%, upload 10%. Absolutely love it. If you have the old Nighthawk app delete it and install the new / updated app BEFORE you try to setup. It will save you time and anguish.

New Router/modem
I had some slower speeds with my older router and modem and have never had a router/modem in one. This was on the pricier side, but we went with it and I am not disappointed at all!! Already my DL speeds increased 200 Mgb and UL over 20. I am very pleased with this device and would recommend to anyone. The setup was much easier than I thought it would be. I actually saved some space getting rid of my last devices. Very happy customer

Cax80 review
I purchased this modem/router to replace my current Asus cm-2600 wifi modem. The Nighthawk not only increased my wifi range but boosted the amount of bandwidth by at least 75%. I have Xfinity 800mbps. The wifi for the old panoramic was not only disconnecting but the download speeds were approximately 250mbps. The nighthawk now provides me with over 750mbps download over wifi alone! If you are looking for that edge this is the combo modem for you!

I’ve had nothing but problems since I purchased this router. Been on the phone with tech support at least 6 times (who is most interested in upselling you an extended warranty). DHCP problems, port forward problems and the thing looses connection with its Netgear extender partner NIGHTLY… Here we go again another reboot of to get my network back up and running again. Honestly, don’t waste your time like I did. Never had these kind of problems with other MISMATCH router and extender setups. Please do yourself a favor and find something else. If you do buy it, welcome to reboot hell.

Not what I expected for the price
Hardware is great. App is helpful. Frustrated to find that not only is the Disney Circle software not bundled into the routers OS, but my existing Disney Circle box causes conflict with the router. Now I have to choose to return the device or stop managing my children’s access to online content. Frustrating to say the least.

I love the product but the product doesn't love me
I bought this product almost 12 months ago. It worked great until it died abruptly. I received a RMA #, had a brand new one shipped overnight just to find out the same issue exists. I can not log into the router therefore it is DOA. 2 of the same products with exact same issues. No internet/no login/no good. 2x. Verified by using my old cable modem/router by Motorola which works just fine.

Suddenly stopped working
I purchased the modem in November 2020. It was easy to set up and working fine till last week - I suddenly lost my internet access, spent several hours to trouble shoot and called Xfinity support, all indicators on the Modem seemed showing the internet was on, but none of my devices were able to connect to it. I searched on the internet and saw someone mentioned that I could try to reset the Modem, I did, and the problem was resolved, although I still don't know what the root cause was.

To the point
My connection has never failed me. I use this for work and call center is very demanding with vpn’s and virtual desktops slowing down internet speeds. I now get speeds as fast as my ISP will allow me. I am a gamer on the side. So, if you want monster speeds and excellent connection get this. Also, my job requires hard wired connection, so I have the demand of Ethernet with the flexibility of WI-FI. TBH support was not the best, but they resolve most of your problems. My issue was that I used the same admin password for two devices and every time I would try to work on one device it would pick up the other. Make sure you have separate passwords. Lol overall a great product.

My local Best Buy had 2 in stock.
I was able to bring it home and activate it with my Comcast - Xfinity provider without issue. After initially having some issues with service to the house that Xfinity resolved (A new line run to the house due to a slit in the original coax line, and some maintenance as the tech wasn't able to get 50Mps Upload on the trunk as he should have.
Things took a couple of days to settle in, but now I get @ 700Mbps Down and @ 24Mbps Up. Outstanding Gateway! Easy to set up with the Netgear Nighthawk App in my Android phone.

Be aware!
This is not a reflection on netgear at all but just thought I would let everyone know my experience with Xfinity when I tried to hook up this modem/router. I have always had awesome netgear products and my current extender works great, EX8000. But when you try to add an outside modem to your account with Xfinity and are already on the top plan of 1.2GB and unlimited data, xfinity has figured out a way to get you. Since I am already on their top plan, xFi 1.2GB with unlimited data, you can only have 1 modem on the account and when you try to add this netgear and take off their supplied gateway, then you lose unlimited data and they will charge you $30/month to upgrade it. So you do not get any credits by using your own equipment instead have to pay more for the service if you want to use your equipment and not the Xfinity gateway, which i know they throttle speeds on the wifi.

A Top Performer, Nighthawk CAX80
We are in Xfinity user. Over the last year and a half we have gone through two fairly expensive router modems in order to keep or stay connected to our service and to get maximum efficiency and production in the work we do. This router modem has been exceptional for us both in our office and in our home, there has been nothing like it.
I highly recommend this modem router to anyone that uses cable service in any region as one that’s going to provide them with the best and thoughtless and warreless performance they could get in the unit of this type.

It was great before it died
I bought this router modem because I was having trouble logging into work from home with my old router modem due to security problems. This router worked great. Then a year and a half later it just quit working and had changed the wireless to a new name Broadcom with no security. No password, nothing. The Ethernet connection also was not working. After hours of working with net gear on line help. The unit could not be fixed. So I threw it in the trash and went back to my old unit that works fine.
A 500 dollar electronic gadget should not break in such a short time. My old Motorola one has to be 8 years old and still ticking. The one before that was retired due to obsolete technology. After this experience I would never buy another net gear product

House is 3,000 sqft and the regular wifi signal has full bars everywhere in the house. The 5G connection is 1 bar short in the farthest areas in the house. Overall IMO thats great!

After 8+ hours of trouble shooting and multiple calls back and forth between WOW! and Netgear. Where WOW! is saying it is a Netgear issue and Netgear telling me it is an issue with WOW! And After two brand new units I was not able to get this item up and running. Returning this asap and will be exploring other options as this is essentially a paperweight at this point.

I’ve bought 2 of them
I’ve bought 2 of these devices.. I’ve spent over 15 hrs total with the support teams trying to trouble shoot only to brought to the that both of my devices which were over 430 dollars a piece were both defective due to hardware issues.. I’ve returned both and bought a cm2000 which seems to now be working fine with my Orbi RBR960’s but this is not my first option and I’ve also lost so much time and money in this process.. BUT I will say the reason I remained a customer is because I’ve heard good things and I am a bit overly forgiving I guess lol.. anywho the combination I have now works fine but I am still heartbroken that I wasn’t able to get a factory working model of what I actually wanted.. I’ll be back for a review update for you guys.

New install was easy to setup and the speed is great as well as the distance for the Wi-Fi for connection within home and outside! Love the extra security with bitdefender as well!

Truthfulness
I should’ve went and Blythe cable modem router right off the bat. I had rented a modem from a service provider, well to say the least that they tell me the truth. I was on tech support for hours, had a technician come out to tell me I needed a new cable wire. So after I was not going to have internet for Christmas. I decided to purchase the modem after all the hoops I would have had to jump through just to get internet. I bought it plug it in did what the instructions said and Bam I had internet, all the BS I heard was down right a disgrace to consumers that do understand the basic problems that can accrue. I know have a secured modem and internet so thanks for the product.

Love This Device
I purchased this cable modem router to replace an older cable modem router I have been using for 5 years. This Netgear Nighthawk cable modem router (CAX80) is simply amazing. The instructions were simple to follow and I used the recommended Netgear App and Xfinity App to set it up. I was able to get setup in less than 15 minutes without having to call Xfinity support to set up my new router. I’m enjoying the netgear app testing my speeds, and managing my new cable modem router. The basic features of the app are helpful in letting me monitor my home internet. I’m very happy with the speeds I am getting from this router and the Wi-Fi 6 support. Thanks Netgear for making a great product!

I received an email from our cable provider saying our Arris Modem Router would no longer work well with their service, so I purchased the NETGEAR CAX80. It is amazing, None of my older Modem Routers ever generated the Speeds this one does.

Speedy fast modem with easy setup. I completed set up in about 15 minutes. I have been using the new modem for just over a week and am impressed with its power. One tip: if you are upgrading equipment, download the Netgear app before shutting down your existing modem.

Excellent modern/router
I initially had difficulties setting up the modem because the app that must be used for the install and set up was not functioning properly. After that issue was resolved I am extremely happy with the modem/router. It has fantastic range that does not really require an extender, but I use one anyway. Money well spent.

Good for speed but gets hot could use a fan or something to draw out heat. Maybe the design could be changed for better cooling. When combo gets hot internet gets choppy and laggy. Using multiply tvs and gaming systems tablets and phones at once.

Recently upgraded to this to work from home, should have done so sooner. The wifi can bounce around and the range is probably a little shorter than it would have you believe, but I can get double the speeds that I pay for. Well worth the investment.

Recently bought NETGEAR Nighthawk Cable Modem WiFi 6 Router Combo (CAX80 from Best Buy a week ago. I like the app's platform. It is easy to follow and understand. I like that it gives me control. I like the convenience of not needing a separate Modem. It saves space. The capability of sending out wifi signal is excellent thus far. I've got no complaints. I have 3 smart TVs. Two of them used actively for streaming shows and news outlets, while 1 is used heavily for online gaming. It's also utilized heavily for devices such as 2 laptops, 1 desktop

Best modem ever
If you are still using the modem the internet companies send you, stop right now. This modem blows them out the water. I pay for the gigabit speed internet but was lucky if I got 200mbps. I bought this modem wifi router combo and now my speeds are insane. I think about a web page and it opens up. I get full wifi 6 in my entire house with no extender needed. Internet doesn't lag, skip, hop or jump in any way. This modem was the best thing g ive ever bought. I can stream, download, game, YouTube, ticktok, insta, and tweet all at the same time with all my friends and neighbors using my internet and it doesn't even blink at it. Seriously get this modem and you will not be dissatisfied. You can do whatever you want with this modem in your house.

I was a bit nervous to replace my xfinity modem with my own. After a ton of research and reading nothing but positive reviews of the Netgear Modom Router Combo I went ahead and purchased it. The set up was super easy and my wifi is now so much faster. On top of that I can control everything on the Netgear app and it let's me know what connected devices are safe. Don't think twice and purchase it !

Not a very good product
Not a very good product over all. This is my second unit in a 2 year time span. The first one just crashed one day for no apparent reason. The standard warranty is only 1yr and they don't have an option to send in the unit for repair so I had to pay full price for a new unit. You can pay extra to extend the warranty another year but not sure that's even worth it. There are only a handful of cable modem routers compatible with xfinity so I was kind of forced spend another $400 on a new unit against my better judgement. If I could do over I would have gone with a different brand with a better warranty and cheaper price. It worked great for the two years but that's it.

Router met my expectations
The product has met my expectations. It was purchased to extend router capability from a prior Motorola product that performed well but doesn't have a comparable Wi-Fi 6 capable product. It reduced the no. of extenders needed to cover the same amount of space in regard to 5G speed Wi-Fi. Hopefully, it will continue to perform well over time. It has not been an extensive amount of time since purchase.

Works great when it works
This router replaced a very entry level one I was using with xfinity. The range is incredible, speed is far superior, and connectivity issues were extremely infrequent.
I owned mine for about 4 months before it entirely stopped working. I called NetGear. Their support is overseas and I had a hard time understanding the rep, but she was kind and helped me troubleshoot it to the best of both of our abilities. It was quickly determined that it was faulty. They opened a warranty claim and I mailed it in. Their turnaround was quick and I am expected to have my new router delivered tomorrow. My hope, of course, is that this one works longer than the last one.
I would rate customer support at a 5/5, router overall a 3/5 because of longevity of the first one. Overall, I’m satisfied and looking forward to having my new router back.

I decided to switch from xfinity equipment yo the CAX80. I was really easy. i must admit that the combination of router install and activation was simple without any problem and achieved in 15 minutes. the equipment activation through xfinity completed nicely the work of router installation. I have know a better signal at a better speed even in the far location of my 2 story house... so happy. it is expensive product but by saving 15$ by month It will reimbursed itself quickly.

We upgraded from netgear Ac1900 modem/router and wish we had not. The modem seems to disconnect frequently prompting trouble shooting citing lack of internet signal but as soon as I open settings the modem/router is connected again. Not impressed with the CAX80 if we had not traded in our previous router we would have already returned this. Upgrades should improve service not take away

Easy setup. Great coverage
This router modem combo replaced a separate modem and router that refused to talk to each other consistently. That said, I expected the worse and set aside several hours to make the switchover. An hour later, I was completely up and running. The setup was perfect with the exception that iCloud Private Relay needs to be off for the Netgear IOS app to work... nothing a quick google search couldn't resolve. Even my existing non-Netgear access points work perfectly with the Netgear CAX80. The coverage is great to the point that I almost did not use the older access points but they did help in the far reaches of the house. After one week, it appears to be a great choice.
