Nighthawk AX12 Premier Beta includes a 90-day Free Trial?
I received an email about the beta for the AX12 Premier Membership program and signed up for one of the plans. However, the email I received indicates that it comes with a 30-day trial, while the main website has a 90-day trial listed. I would like to know which one is acutally being offered as it is stated in two different locations.

It's 30. I signed up and already have my AX120.
Has it always been a 30-day trial since the first users signed up for this Premier beta or was it changed sometime after? The current Netgear website and most of the news articles I found mentioned a 90-day trial for the AX120.

As far as I know the program just started and I was given 30 days.
Hi,
So how do you like your AX12 router? Got the invite for the program, trying to decide what plan to pick.
Thanks.

Well Im going from an AX8, so really have not seen much difference. Have only had a day so have not tried to push it yet to the limits. I have approximately 48 connected devices in my home. Off the bat, it seems to have a bigger wingspan (lol) and no wall mounting slots like the AX8. The wings on the AX8 fit tight into position and the the wings on the AX12 just kind of stay in place because the unit is flat. Maybe thats the reason for no wall mounting. I think it looks better on the wall in my setup. Range is a little better with the AX12. No DFS channels on the AX12. I don't think 160mhz is enabled yet, because I don't see an option for it.
- Just signed up today for 1 year sub. Just wondering how long did it take you to receive your AX12? Thanks in advance 🙏🏻
- I paid on a Friday, and received my unit on Tuesday overnight. But it shipped from California and I live in California.
- What part of the world are you in? I’m in the US and signed up whenever this device was announced and have not yet heard back from NETGEAR.
i sent mine in day they opened up the beta and i also have not recieved anything about it. checked my spam also nothing still. just want to be able to use this powerhouse.
If possible, can someone send me a link so I can signup? It would be greatly appreciated.
As of now, this website mentions 'up to 90-day free trial': https://www.netgear.com/landings/premier/
Pay attention to the wording 'up to'; it implicitly implies that it could be 90 days, or any number less than that. I just got a belated beta membership yesterday, and I got a 30 day free trial period. Not a problem for me as I assume (hopefully) finalized version of RAX120 will be released for sale sometime next month.I signed up but have not heard anything? At this point im willing to buy it flat out.
So Netgear just launched RAX120 on Amazon for $499.99. I got my AX12 Premier Beta 2 weeks ago, end of March, after signing month-to-month option of paying 29.99 per month so I can opt out anytime - chose this having the plan in mind of returning the Beta version and buying the release version. I assume that the release version is more polished and has all the upgrades from the Beta. Correct me if I am wrong but I didn't see buy-out-clause in the contract for month-to-month subscription plan. I presumed that to be after paying for 12 months - which would be cheaper than buying the release version. I am not sure if it is worth to get RAX120 from Amazon, or keep the Beta version for about $100 less (presuming I can buy it out after paying 12 month installations). I need to do more research on my own, but what are some of the biggest differences between the Beta and release versions? If there is no significant difference I will consider keeping the Beta.
