My Netgear R6900 came with Disney Circle parental controls (and so does this router). It's been working great for my family for a while.

Netgear sucks. Need to power cycle the router every few weeks. Their software is absolutely garbage. Access control is absolutely terrible. Parental control? There is none.

Just picked one up from local costco for $199.99. They are replacing it with the newer AX6200 model.

Do you need Wi-Fi 6 support? How fast is your internet connection? Where does your router sit in the house? Bottom floor? Middle floor?
In general, a Mesh system with dedicated backhaul will do...

Thinking about this as an incremental upgrade. Going from the Archer C9 which has been really good up until this year, but I think we're at the point where it's being maxed out. If anybody is using...

If you can put it on the middle floor, the mesh has no real advantage. If you get coverage everyewhere right now, you'll be fine with this router. If you aren't getting good coverage, generally a...

Thanks for this. Lots to think about. I have 1gig internet now (too cheap to pass up) but really don’t need to maximize every inch. It’s gaming, WFH, streaming to a few Apple TV’s. I am on the fence...

Mesh - better coverage.
Conventional router - more features / lower latency - preferred for gaming.
TBH on a 3 story home i would probably lean towards a mesh setup that is if you need good...

How is this as a solo router vs a mesh system? I live in a 3 floor small-ish townhouse.
