Selling a NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 6 Router (RAX120) in excellent working condition. This is a high-performance AX6000 WiFi 6 router designed for heavy-use home networks and homelabs. I want to upgrade to a more powerful router.
Some interesting facts I learned recently, dual-bands routers with same speed bandwidth are faster than tri-band ones because the way manufactures market their products using the total theoretical speed of 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz. For example, I have no devices with 6GHz, if I get Tri-Band BE9300 which claims to have 57Mbps(2.4G)+5760Mbps(6G)+2880Mbps(5G) then I actually downgrad the wifi speed to 573Mbps(2.4G)+2880Mbps(5G)=3453Mbps(2.4G+5G) from the netgear's 6000Mbps(2.4G+5G).
Why I am using this router:
I originally chose this model for its multiple Ethernet ports and proper DMZ support, which Spectrum’s router does not provide. It handled high traffic loads reliably and performed very well.
Important note / downside (full transparency):
The router includes one dedicated 5-Gigabit Ethernet port
The additional 2-Gigabit bandwidth is achieved via link aggregation, which requires a compatible network switch to fully utilize the combined 2 Gbps throughput
This is only a consideration if you plan to build a high-speed wired setup.
Key Features:
WiFi 6 (802.11ax) for faster speeds and better efficiency
AX6000 wireless speed – up to 6 Gbps combined
12-stream dual-band performance
Coverage up to 3,500 sq. ft.
Supports 30+ devices simultaneously
Multi-Gig Ethernet + multiple Gigabit LAN ports
Excellent for gaming, streaming, smart homes, and homelabs
Condition & Notes:
Fully functional, no issues
Factory reset and ready for setup
Light normal use, well maintained
Payment & Pickup:
Cash or Venmo only
Local pickup only (no shipping)
If you’re looking for a powerful WiFi 6 router with strong wired and wireless performance, this is a solid option.
