Nighthawk X8 AC5000 replacement
I currently have a Netgear Nighthawk X8 AC5000 running in Bridge Mode. The unit is starting to fail and I would like to purchase a replacement. Other than searching through the spec sheets of every router, is there a list of available models that are capable of running in Bridge Mode? I emailed Sales, but have yet to receive any response.Looking for a router that I can switch off the wireless wifi
Hello! Im looking for a router, ideally a modem and router combo, where I can leave a few things plugged into the Ethernet ports - like a couple computers etc. which would give them internet 24/7. While also being able to ‘flip a switch’ turning off the wireless Wi-Fi waves the device is emitting. But without just unplugging the router and shutting off the internet entirely. Thank youUpgrade Existing Nighthawk R7000 using CFG file
Hello All I currently use a Nighthawk R7000 router and am looking to upgrade to a more recent version of the nighthawk series but I am unable to find wether or not the newer netgear routers can be loaded with an older router .cfg backup file. Anyone done this & is it possible? Alternatively, can the new router "grab" the old router settings somehow? Many thanks Grahamnetgear nighthawk ac1750 r6700v2 - ready to purchase; question...
very newbie here - opportunity to purchase this unit and start cox internet service - this unit calls itself both a modem and router, but cox furnishes coaxial connection - this unit has no coaxial connection - so questions; 1.) will it work on cox system 2.) if so, what do i need to complete hookup and installation? Thanks much JerryNetgear router software allows for exfil of secret data when system is 'blocked' from access control
Putting a connected device in 'blocked' mode by using access control still allows for secret data to be exfiltrated out of the device and onto the WAN by using UDP protocol. Apparently the "blocked" status only applies to TCP.My 8 year old Nighthawk just died - pls recommend a replacement
It’s served me well and despite having Ubiquiti access points dotted around the house, I’m happy to get a Netgear router again. Note, I dont need a modem because my ISP (Plusnet in the UK) supplied me one. Family home, lots of devices. Fibre broadband with 70mb down, 20meg up (hopefully 1gigabit in a year) Connected to a gigabit switch with Cat 6 cable Im out of touch with Netgear products and dont really know what WIFI6 is so buying recommendations appreciated. Thanks
