Needs renewed or refurbished in title, IMO.

I got excited for this, but this review is pretty critical:

I suppose some of that could be fixed via firmware updates, but probably not all of it.

Thanks. Got one. Like that it has LAN ports on the satellites.
As long as it stays up, does not disconnect, and extends the range to the corners... then I am all good.

It's great that this has a wired backhaul. Worth the effort if you want the best performance and throughput. Can use MOCA adaptors to turn coax cable runs into ethernet ports if your home is wired for it and you don't want to go to the trouble of running new ethernet cabling.

Sadly while reading the review published on Tom's Hardware there is one aspect that is an absolute dealbreaker. "The AX3600 sends out a single SSID, and we were not able to separate it into separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals." Certain older 2.4GHz devices don't behave normally when the SSID is identical for both 5GHz and 2.4GHz. And by behave normally I mean in some cases they simply won't connect at all. The now discontinued Logitech Harmony hub comes to mind as an example. Just something others might want to research with their older WiFi hardware before purchasing.

Dude, completely unrelated, but that MOCA adapter idea is so good and could really help me out!

FYI, latest firmware for the MK8x series is dated 12/22/2022, the one before that was 10/20/2022, though idk if these routers have open vulnerabilities. (The lower-end MK6x and MK7x have latest firmware dated 4/2023 and 1/2023 respectively).

AFAIK, these Nighthawk MK8x MK7x MK6x are not discontinued but Netgear's newer and more expensive Orbi line tend to get more firmware update and "attention", naturally. I've read that some other manufacturers (TP-Link) are even worse with open vulnerabilities.
