Best WIFI 6 replacement for the R6300v1?
Hi everyone! Since 2015 I have those netgear products:
- NETGEAR Smart WiFi Router AC1750 Dual Band Gigabit
- Netgear AC750 -802.11AC Dual Band Gigabit Wi-Fi Range Extender (EX6100)
I think it's time to renew so I ask you which wifi 6 router is the best option to replace one or both products?
I thank you for any help you can give me!

Thats a very loaded question.
the best?
RAX200 and the EAX80.
or going with a mesh system like the
Orbi RBK852/RBK752
but there's many factors that influence "the best". Its pointless to recommend the the best $1000 system if your budget is $300 and you have a smaller home. Or if you're home is massive, then a mesh system is better. Of if you're using dsl at 10mbps, then its pointless.
So details help.
1. what size is your home?
2. what is the home made up of for interior walls?
3. what speeds do you pay for or plan on upgrading to?
4. What is it used for? gaming? streaming? 50+wireless devices, etc
5. whats the budget? Again, there's a best for every price point
1. what size is your home?
2000 suare feats.
2. what is the home made up of for interior walls?
Bricks
3. what speeds do you pay for or plan on upgrading to?
120Mbps.
4. What is it used for? gaming? streaming? 50+wireless devices, etc
20 devices. Working & streaming.
5. whats the budget? Again, there's a best for every price point
No more than 200 USD.
Brick walls make it a challenge as brick blocks wifi well.
For a single router solution, I'd recommend the R7800 or XR500
For mesh solutions, you can find the renewed RBK43 system at times for around that price.
