How to setup ExpressVPN on NETGEAR Nighthawk Pro Gaming 6-Stream WiFi 6 Router (XR1000) - AX5400 ?

Hi,

 

I have placed an order for the NETGEAR Nighthawk Pro Gaming 6-Stream WiFi 6 Router (XR1000) - AX5400 and I have ExpressVPN already, but could someone confirm would I be able to install ExpressVPN on this gaming router? 

 

I want to be able to add the ExpressVPN and use GEO Filter etc and I believe this router is one the newest out of the XR series?

  • This router does not currently have HybridVPN implemented so you will not be able to use Express with this model.

      Will it be available? if so when? I just paid £320 for this router why doesn't it have it - its a very expesive high end router its disapointing to know it doesn't have this feature when the older modes have?

       

      Do you know if theres going to be better/newer model to this that will have netduma os geo filter etc? if so when would it come out? as I might have to cancel the order..if im not able to use E-VPN to use on all my devices.

        I couldn't say if/when it would be included. It's an NG decision on what features are included. I'm not aware of any new ones in the works currently but that's always subject to change
