RS700 versus RS700S
NETGEAR references two different model numbers (RS700 and RS700S) for the Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi 7 Router (see here). What are the differences, if any, between the two?
Thank you.
Yes, all the answers above are correct. RS700S is the product name or SKU name, its hardware device is RS700. The appendix 'S' indicates 1-yr Armor service is bundled. There are no RS700 alone products in the market at this point. If you look at the RS700S' device label, it still says RS700. I hope this explains.

One comes with Armor subscription I do believe.

I think they are one in the same. I pre-ordered the RS700S, but I ended up getting the RS700.
FURRYe38is likely right. My one did come with a year of Netgear Armor, so maybe all physical models are RS700, and the S just indicates that it comes with a year of armor.
The HW is the same. Just Software options Like Armor sets the S. NG does this for the Orbi system as well.
