N600 speed
I have 500 mb on my Wi-Fi, so will my router and modem N600 handle the 5OO or do I need a bigger router and modem??
N600 is an ancient router and many generations behind, so no, it won't handle. You did not say what your modem is.
(PS: N300 is a speed, not router model)

- I have a modern and router built in one, it’s a N600 802.11 dual band gigabit, built in DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem….. so if this won’t hold speed of 500 mbps then want to you recommend that’s not to expensive, I want a dual band. Thanks
- I'm not sure about which model you're talking. At first I thought your N600 is the WNDR3400 model. Now you say it also has a modem which makes it a Gateway. Again, N600 is a speed *not* modem or router model. Look underneath on the label which is says Model.
That said, if the modem is docsis 3.0, it can handle 500 Mbps. I do not know about the router part since, as I said, I don't know your device's model.- It’s a Netgear N600 WI-FI cable modem and router…. (Dual band 300t300) range…it saids cable modem speed up to 340 Mbps… 8 x 4 channeling bonding
