Why would you go to the store right now? If it's available online stay home. Jesus. This isn't that complicated.

In the product details (as per the link) - "Item may be available in your local warehouse, prices may vary"


You can call your local store to find the in-warehouse stock and price (sometimes lower than online).

I currently have the Costco Nighthawk X6S AC3000. We get about 300-400mbps on wifi with ATT gigabit. My desktop which has direct ethernet connection gets 900mbps.

You need your phones, tablets and other devices to all be Wifi 6 compatible to benefit from this right?

I wouldn't make a trip just for it but could do so as part of Costco grocery/liquor run. Smilie

You should get better performance with WiFi 6 clients but really depends on individual client locations.

I tested this a couple of months back and it was fast with direct line of sight but it performed worst than a 3 year old router (Netgear R7000) even with WiFi 6 clients when I situate my client 25-30 feet away with two walls between router and client.

I may hold off till the A6s breaks. It's been super solid so far and almost never needs a rest.

yea..i mean i got shamed immediately; but part of a regular costco grocery run would make it an easy pickup. i dont exactly have unlimited fridge/storage space, and cant order a lot of the items online in the first place, so in store visit is prob on my to do list in the next few days.

I have not seen this router at 2 costco stores last 2 weeks during the grocery run, but YMMV.
