NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender EAX80
I am looking for WiFi router recommendations. I am currently on a Nighthawk M5 5G modem router with a Nighthawk EAX80 extender. The M5 is plenty fast with a 5G tower on both sides of the house but the connection is not reliable. I’m ordering a Starlink and a TP Link Load balancer.
I’d like to connect to starlink as primary and 5G failover. My question is which NG WiFi router would match up best with the EAX80 that I have on hand? I’ll not use the starlink or M5 WiFi for primary payload. I believe I’ll connect the EAX80 via Ethernet vs wireless.
The Netgear AX1600 (RAX5-100PAS) came up in my search but i wanted to check with the community. Suggestions?
