Which router for my Xfinity gig internet

Recently got Xfinity 1000mbps with a xb6. Multi-story 4000sqft.
Typical to have 15 or more devices connected to Wi-Fi. Daily PS4 online gaming 4 TV boxes and fire sticks 2-3 laptops . want to get the best router that will fit my situation. Looking at the x6 would appreciate your input

  • The XR500 or XR700 would be able to handle your speeds and devices. I'd suggest due to the size of your home and it being over multiple levels the XR700 due to WiFi range and strength would be best for you.

        My experiences with Netgear routers are exclusive to the Nighthawk Pro Gaming range as we created the software for those routers, so I couldn't advise on the X6 unfortunately.
