Our take on the NETGEAR Nighthawk 7 Router

The Nighthawk RS100 is NETGEAR's entry-level Wi-Fi 7 router. It is a dual-band BE3600 unit with a combined 3.6 Gbps of wireless throughput, a 2.5 Gig internet port and four 1 Gbps LAN ports, rated for up to 2,000 square feet and 50 devices. It is the simplest way into Wi-Fi 7: cheaper and smaller than tri-band flagships like the Nighthawk RS700S, but without a 6 GHz band or multi-gig LAN. Owners like the easy setup and steady everyday performance; some report shorter real-world range and occasional dropouts, which fits its 3.9-out-of-5 average.

Best forSmall to mid-size homes up to about 2,000 square feetHouseholds with up to 50 phones, laptops and smart devicesBuyers who want Wi-Fi 7 on a budgetGigabit or 2.5 Gig fiber users who want a fast WAN port
Pros
  • Wi-Fi 7 (BE3600) at entry-level pricing, with lower latency than Wi-Fi 6
  • 2.5 Gig internet port for fast fiber plans
  • Four Gigabit LAN ports for wired devices
  • WPA3, guest network, separate IoT network and VPN support built in
  • Simple app-based setup and automatic firmware updates
Cons
  • Dual-band only: no 6 GHz band, so no clean spectrum for Wi-Fi 7 devices
  • 3.6 Gbps combined is modest next to tri-band Wi-Fi 7 routers
  • LAN ports are 1 Gbps, so wired devices can't use the full 2.5 Gig WAN
  • Some owners report shorter range than the 2,000 sq. ft. claim
  • Occasional dropouts and reboots reported by a share of buyers

Questions and answers

Is the RS100 worth it over a Wi-Fi 6 router?

NETGEAR rates it for up to 50 concurrent devices, which covers a typical family home.
