Review: FANTASTIC | Solved My Virgin Super Hub 3 Slow WiFi Issues - This review is for the Netgear Nighthawk AX12 12 Steam AX WiFi Router (Model Number: RAx120) MY BROADBAND PACKAGE: Virgin Media Fibre Optic Cable. 220MB Download and 20MB upload broadband plan. Using Virgin SuperHub 3. MY HOME SETUP: Large 4 bedroom detached property (very wide) over 2 floors (No brick internal walls). Furthest internal point in house, from the router is approx 15 meters. I have approx 15 devices connecting to the WiFi network. THE VIRGIN SUPER HUB 3: The only time I ever received Virgin’s advertised upload and download speeds was when I connected my MacBook Pro directly to the router using an Ethernet cable. Great - if you don't mind cables running all over your house. The WiFi was horrendously slow 90% of the time - I was often getting download speeds of just 20MB and that was in the same room as the router. In other rooms or upstairs the WiFi signal would degrade further still, to the point that it was often unusable - frequently I would get faster downloads using 4G (on my iPhone Pro Max). I tried all the usual stuff - turning the router off and back on again - turning off the mobile devices and laptops - and resetting the router back to factory settings. Even resorted to tweaking the router settings, to no avail. Occasionally, the router would give me a faster WiFi connection when turned off and back on again (maybe reaching 70MB) and then within minutes or a couple of hours it was back to the usual slow speed connection. I tried WiFi extenders etc.. nothing seemed to work, and as I work from home, I would end up using ethernet cable during the day to ensure I had a fast and constant reliable connection. Fed up with the slow WiFi and having an ethernet cable running over 10 metres to the study I started to research the Virgin Super Hub 3 router online. If only I had done it sooner. The reviews for it are terrible (and that's from official reviewers - not your average lay person). In view of this and already have spent a small fortune on other devices (extenders etc) I started to look at reviews for the NETGEAR Nighthawk router. Initial reaction was expensive, but the reviews for it were generally very good. Having had enough of my current unworkable setup, I decided to purchase the router. THE NIGHTHAWK NETGEAR ROUTER REVIEW: Arrived within a couple of days via desertcart Prime. Downloaded the app to my iPhone, launched it and followed the step-by-step instructions to complete the router setup. It was an absolute breeze. I had the new router up and running within half an hour of getting it out of the box. Note: If you're using the Virgin Super Hub 3, you will need to change the Super Hub 3 from "WiFi Mode" to "Modem Mode", before you start setting up the Nighthawk router, which can easily be done within the router's settings. During the set-up, you're asked if you want to keep your existing Network SSID and Password... Select "YES" as this means all of your existing devices will automatically connect to the new router (once set-up), otherwise you'll have a New SSID and Password, which you’ll have to set-up on every device you wish to connect to the WiFi. This worked perfectly for me. Post setup, all of my existing devices connected perfectly. Note: The 5G network has shorter range but faster connection, whereas the 2G network has further range but slower speed connection. I managed to get all of my smart devices (TV's, mobile phones, iPads) to connect to the 5G Wi-Fi network without any issues or signal drops anywhere in the house. There are 5 ethernet ports on the back of the router, which I also used to connect some devices (e.g Lounge TV, and PS4). Here's THE BEST BIT ... THE SPEED... WOW - this has totally blown my socks off!!! Most of the devices are connecting to the WiFi at almost full speed (220MB download) most of the time. In the furthest corners of the house I can still gets signals as fast as 210MB. I'm totally impressed and wish I'd bought this sooner. The Nighthawk Phone App is great. It allows you to see all of the devices connecting to the network either via WiFi or wired connection. You can 'pause' internet to individual devices if you like. You can also check the internet upload and download speed between your Router and ISP, which is handy. You can also turn on a "Guest WiFi" network if you wish to give house gets access to WiFi but not 'your' personal WiFi. There is also a traffic meter, if you wish to track how much data you're using . IN CONCLUSION: This router isn't cheap, in fact it's one of Netgear's most expensive. It does however have the latest WiFi standard (WiFi 6 aka "AX") which the latest iPhones, Samsung Devices, iPads can make use off. It is also backward compatible with all previous WiFi standards. It is quick and easy to setup and doesn't require any technical knowledge. Most importantly is the WiFi speed which I've been completely amazed with. You might also be able to get great results with other cheaper Netgear Routers (I didn't want to take the chance based on the amount I'd spent cumulatively on other products trying to sort my poor WiFi signal), however, I can wholly recommend this router if you have the budget, want ultra-fast WiFi speeds, and are looking to ensure any new smart device purchases can make use of the very latest and fastest WiFi.
Review: RAX120v2 router cutting off frequently - I got this Netgear router RAX120 v2 in Jan 2023. After a few weeks I noticed the WiFi cutting off and reconnecting more frequently. My Ring devices and Blink camera devices were also not responding well to the Netgear router in general. So I contacted Netgear support and they assisted in resetting the whole thing, including the service provider modem. The process took several hours to complete. It seemed to work for a few days but then the problem started happening again, in fact worse than before. Netgear support told me to contact desertcart to request return of the router and request a refund. I have requested this now and awaiting desertcart response. I have packed up the Netgear router and now I'm using the default router given by my service provider and WiFi is working perfectly now. All my devices like Ring and Blink respond really well to the service provider's router. Also my internet speed results goes up to 1.2 Gbps which is really high - but I was getting 700-800mbps via Netgear router (even through wired connection using cat 8 ethernet cable). Now I expect desertcart will take back the Netgear router and refund me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Netgear say there is no version 2 of the rax120 yet on their site there is firmware for v2 & people have version 2 units. so why do netgear deny it**
A: Sorry we got confused with another model of Netgear router. We apologize for the mistake and we do confirm we have the v2 of the RAX120.
However, we recommend to ask directly to the reseller to be sure to receive the RAX120v2.

If you have any questions, you can also check out our community NETGEAR

NETGEAR Amazon UK

**Q: How many devices can be connected at one time? some articles say 30 only!!**
A: you will never know the number, I bought 1 because I called netgear and asked for wifi router for 100 devices mix of wired and wireless. The box turned up and says on the box upto 50.... support when logging cases have  said only 16 devices then 30 then 75. The netgear site says another figure.

**Q: Does the netgear nighthawk  rax120 support bt iptv ,  channels like bt sport on the bt youview box**
A: Be kindly informed that you can set up the router RAX120 to create an IPTV port that can lease an IP address from your IPTV service provider. This feature can be used if you subscribe to an IPTV service and your IPTV service requires an intranet address. For more information, we invite you to check the router User Manual at the NETGEAR support page: NETGEAR RAX120 Support.

For further questions, please do not hesitate to visit our NETGEAR Community.

Best Regards,
NETGEAR Amazon UK

**Q: Does this router work with seeing the light fibre connections**
A: Based on the seethelight setup video it looks as though the netgear would be a drop in replacement. As long as the ONT installed in your home is standard and has ethernet port to connect to the WAN port on the router it should work fine. They do say to keep your original router for diagnosing any issues so that's worth noting. I still get dropouts with mine though - read the other comments. Even with wifi 6 connection it can drop - the latest firmware update didn't fix this for me.  May be worth you doing some more research into how fibre is set up in the home though to get a good handle on what you need to do - I'm assuming you have an existing connection though so it should work.  Try it and if issues check you can return within a specific period in case there are issues.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good router showing off the latest Wi-fi spec
*by S***T on 8 January 2020*

This router replaces a Nighthawk XR500 that’s being sent back for replacement after it went faulty. I’ve been watching this router for a while and it’s firmware updates and when the XR500 gave up I thought it’s time to move on. Very easy to set up with either the app or web page, I entered the same credentials and everything connected straight away. The XR was different as it was constant messing to get even Echo devices to connect. The web page and app are basic and not complicated and within 10mins it was up and running after the firmware updated. I turned off AX mode as I have no AX devices and it’s very stable so far. Wi-fi coverage is excellent, way better than the XR. I have 2 NETGEAR Ex8000 extenders as I had dead areas but now it just covers the property but I’m using one extender as it has some wired connections from other devices. I noticed too the extender now connects at max strength. For example my Arlo security cameras connect to extender and streaming is now butter smooth with their app and Apples HomeKit. I’m also on BT and there is no issue but I’m running a HG612 modem and not a home hub which I prefer. The specs are impressive, 64bit with good ram and cpu power as indicated in the spec. Perfect for streaming and gaming without the complex software many gaming routers supply. It’s a set and forget device. QoS is basic and I’ve left it off and have streamed and gamed at the same time without any issues so far. A very capable router thanks to its spec. I’ve also noticed as I’m using smart connect it’s working well at roaming and allocating devices to different channels ie. 2.4 or 5Ghz. Both web page and app show what’s connected to what channels and you can turn off devices if need be. Again this is a vast improvement and does the work for you. I’ve in total 15 devices connect to the network and it’s not even pushing it. There is a small fan to keep the temp down, it’s not come on yet and the case is slightly warm to touch, not surprising with the cpu power this router has. To round up if you want a Wi-fi 6 router or just a good modern up-to date router you can’t go wrong. Set it up and forget it’s there, perfect.
