Which one for aggregation feature
Hello, I need to buy a router to aggregate two internet connections (ethernet). Some friends told me that the Netgear Router WiFi Nighthawk AX12 AX6000 does that but I've read it is suggested fo...
The AX12 AX6000 does that. It's not a matter of loggin in. If you have a cable you don't need to log in because the signar arrives from the provider router and enters into the Netgear via ethernet. I just want to understand if the "smaller" version of the moden can do it.

There is no Netgear AX12 that I can see. Do you mean RAX120?
If so, "aggregation" there means that it connects "two Gigabit LAN ports or use Multi-Gig 5G Ethernet as WAN port (configurable)".
The RAX80 also does "PORT AGGREGATION—Ability to aggregate two gigabit LAN ports for faster file transfers".
Not sure that this has anything to do with combining two different Internet sources. More a case of getting more speed out of one connection.
Hello, thanks for your reply.
As you can see from this link i'm referring to AX12 AX6000 and on the same page you can select the AX4 AX3000 or the AX8 AX3000

Maybe in Europe they have different names?
Thanks,

No. Look at the page on the link. See where it says "(RAX120)". That's the model number. The other stuff is wifi labelling. Just look at the picture of the different models.
But the answer is the same.
"PORT AGGREGATION—Ability to aggregate two gigabit LAN ports"
Good luck getting it to merge two WAN ports.
Humm, I've read the article better and I think you're right. Any suggestionon the matter? I really need to jon two diffferent internet connections. It seems https://speedify.com does that but I would really prefer to have it in house and not based on an external service.
