Are we positive that this isn't a booster seat?

This appears to double as a stealth fighter drone.

Buyer be aware ...bad costco re views ..."Missing owners manual"
Who need printed manual these days? It is on app, youtube, or website. The single review means nothing and is likely from an inexperience user.
I just checked with Netgear website. It only comes with Quick start guide. Manual is available online.

WiFi 6 aside, is this router worth it over the netgear x6s at Costco? The x6s has a lot of reviews that mention dropping connection and needing frequent reboots

FYI this model is slightly different from AX8 AX6000, i guess it was designed specifically for Costco

based on comparison AX6000 is faster than AX5700

I bought this off Amazon just a week ago. I dont believe these come with manuals regardless where they were purchased. Setup was seamless through the app.

I just got x6s installed this week. It's been awesome so far. Yes, I can confirm no manual but the app works great. Super easy installation with the app you download to phone.

Costco had this same deal a few weeks back but I missed it. So last week I had bestbuy price match amazon in the RAX80 for $299. No manual needed and yes the app is pretty slick. It covers my entire 2200 sq ft. house plus yard no problem. No mesh system needed. This rax75 is basically the same but only for costco so that people cannot do a price match since the model # is diff.

There is no secret about it. The AX6000 has a combined maximal bandwidth of 6000Mbps while the AX5700 has 5700Mbps. This one has 920Mbps in 2.4GHz band and 4.8Gbps in the 5GHz band. Add up the numbers and you get 5.7Gbps It is just like comparing AC2200 with AC3500.

my point was to let people know that its a different model because someone compared it to amazon AX6000 for $299

I have been rocking the X6S from Costco for over a year now. It's rock solid with great range for a 4000 sqft house. However, with gigabit fiber, it can only output 300-400mbps vs 900mbps I get on my ethernet. I wonder if this would push the wifi speed to closer to gigabit speed.
