  • Very fast, Lots of Ethernet ports, Dedicated wireless connection to router,
  • Bulky, Expensive,
  • Like the slightly cheaper X4S, the Netgear Nighthawk X6S (EX800) uses twin 5GHz radios to provide both a fast connection to your client devices and a full-speed link back to your router. What's more, the backhaul radio is rated at an exceptionally fast 1...

  • Extends WiFi range with any router (but compatible NETGEAR router required for single SSID), Keeps your existing router, unlike dedicated mesh systems, Relatively painless setup, Not as expensive as dedicated mesh WiFi, Four-port Ethernet switch, USB port
  • Only extends 802.11n a little, Not as much extra 802.11ac range as a dedicated mesh WiFi system, Only USB 2.0
  • The NETGEAR Nighthawk X6S Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender has clear benefits over a standalone router. It can extend your usable 802.11ac range by 5-10m, which can mean the difference between covering your house and not. However, it's not in the same league...

  • The EX8000 shares almost the same features as mesh routers, but it cannot work alone. This, coupled with its relatively high price, makes it a hard sell for mainstream consumers...

  • rendimiento wifi sobresaliente, gran cobertura sin antenas externas, compatible con casi cualquier router con wifiac
  • – echamos de menos un puerto usb 3.0, – faltan algunos ajustes avanzados para usuarios experimentados, – precio por encima de la media, aunque las prestaciones también lo son
  • Netgear Nighthawk X6S EX8000Un extensor de red de 179 Euros es una inversión importante, no cabe la menor duda, pero cuando conocemos las prestaciones técnicas de este extensor Netgear Nighthawk X6S EX8000, y su buen comportamiento en nuestras pruebas, n...

  • Incorporación de una tercera banda de frecuencias, en la banda de 5GHz con canales “altos”, pudiendo tener un enlace troncal entre router y repetidor de hasta 1.733Mbps. Esta tercera banda también se usa para los clientes en caso que realicemos un enlace
  • No tiene WiFi de invitados, aunque sí programador WiFi para controlar a los clientes. Tampoco dispone de WiFi Proxy como sí incorporan otros equipos
  • La conclusión que podemos sacar de este repetidor Wi-Fi es que es simplemente el mejor, y el que más rendimiento nos va a proporcionar en cualquier ubicación. Este NETGEAR EX8000 es el primer repetidor Wi-Fi del mundo en tener triple banda simultánea, y e...

  • la conception tri-bandes, les performances sur des distances moyennes, les nombreuses options de configuration, les possibilités offertes par l'agrégation de liens
  • le prix, le contrôle parental impose de disposer d'un service tiers, l'assistance pendant 90 jours
  • Bien adapté pour couvrir en Wi-Fi les habitations les plus grandes, le Netgear Nighthawk X6S offre de nombreuses options de personnalisation. Les performances sont au rendez-vous avec une bonne couverture globale, même sur les longues distances. De plus...
