Netgear Nighthawk RS100 WiFi 7 router

The Netgear Nighthawk RS100 is a dual-band WiFi 7 router delivering wireless speeds up to 3.6 Gbps. It covers up to 2000 sq. ft. and supports up to 50 concurrent devices. A 2.5 Gbps WAN port connects to multi-gig internet plans, while four Gigabit LAN ports handle wired clients. The router runs on a 2.0 GHz quad-core processor with 1 GB RAM and 512 MB flash storage.

Suits homes needing multi-gig wireless today

Households upgrading to 2.5 Gbps fibre or cable service will use the full WAN speed. Families streaming 4K, gaming or running AR/VR gear across 2000 sq. ft. get headroom for 50 devices. Buyers who want a 6 GHz band, more than four LAN ports, or 10 Gbps Ethernet should look at something else.

The 2.5 Gbps WAN port decides the fit

If your internet plan tops out at 1 Gbps, the 2.5 Gbps port sits idle and a WiFi 6 router may cost less. When the ISP delivers 2 Gbps or faster, this port passes the full rate to the WiFi 7 engine and wired LAN. Match the port speed to your service tier before buying.
