This is the RAX35, which is the Walmart version of the RAX40. The difference between the RAX35 and the RAX40 is the cheaper RAX35 does not have a USB port while the RAX40 has a USB3 port.

Similarly, TP-Link has the Archer AX3000, which is the Walmart version of the Archer AX50, where the USB3 port gets downgraded to a USB2 port.

There are two versions of the RAX35 and RAX40. RAX35v1/RAX40v1 used the Intel WAV654 chipset (the exact same chipset found in the TP-Link Archer AX3000/AX50).

Intel entered the WiFi router chipset business (separate from its own in-house WiFi client business that makes the Intel WiFi cards in laptops) when it bought Lantiq, but it exited the business pretty quickly and sold it off, which is why companies that used the Intel WAV654 have all made new versions of their routers using the Broadcom BCM6756. The new Broadcom versions of the Netgear routers are called RAX35v2 and RAX40v2, while TP-Link named theirs Archer AX55.

It's not clear if what you're getting is the v1 with the discontinued Intel chipset or the v2 with the Broadcom chipset. Either way, if you want to look for reviews and benchmarks, you might want to look at RAX40 reviews, since that's basically the same device, sans USB.

(Also, not sure what the first commenter has against TP-Link. The RAX35 and Archer AX3000 are comparable, and I wouldn't say that one is definitely better than the other.)
Looks like a decent price but lots of 1 star reviews. Nothing worse than a shitty router randomly and consistently dropping connection

Got a non v2. Anyone know the difference? Only thing I could find is a change from a dual core to triple core cpu.

Only reason I need v2 is that netgear smart parental controls is in v2 and not v1 acording to:

Got mine today. Did you check the version in the router web setup? On the unit it self it doesn't mention v2 but inside the web setup it mentions it's a v2 at the top.

The v2 logo is removed from product label according to netgear's document. If you can see netgear armor in nighthawk app, that's a v2

V2 is removed from the product label. Netgear don't want you to know that they've got a new product

What are the reasons/benefits that are making you buy this one over the rax40 if you don't mind me asking?
