Can't Decide which to purchase: Netgear Wifi 6 Duel Band (RAX120) or Tri Band Router (RAX200)
II know I want to purchase one of the two routers. I'm not sure if a tri-band WIFI 6 router would be overkill. I have a total of 30-35 devices. These devices include three iPhones with WIFI 6 capabil...

I would suggest neither. If you look through these forums there is nothing but issues with the RAX120 and 200. My RAX 120 is mostly a $400 performance downgrade and stability issues all over the place compared to my 4 year old ASUS router.

very good WiFi coverage and work as intended with the latest firmware.
If I'm honest the QoS needs some work still but apart from that no issues.- NordicBastrdMay 05, 2020Apprentice
Sure it works fine as long as you don't want to use 802.11 ax or you don't care if it is slower than a 5 year old router.
