Abstract: The first 802.11ac router, based on Draft 2.0 silicon from Broadcom, appeared in the first quarter of 2012, and it's taken a while for other vendors to release their first products. The ratification process is now up to Draft 4.0, but final approval is st...
Signal Range, Signal strength & speed, Intuitive GUI, Ease of set up, Next generation Gigabit router, READYshare,
Large design, limited placement options, Difficult to access most ports/buttons, Expensive price tag, USB 3.0 ports would have been nice
From a standpoint of performance, the Netgear R6300 is impressive to say the least. It maintained speeds throughout the house rivaling that of the hardwired benchmark. Considering that the testing was done using an antiquated laptop, the final results ...

The Netgear R6300 802.11ac router combines the fastest Wi-Fi speeds we have ever tested with a clever and complete user interface for ultimate control. Some may not like the footprint or aggressive shape, but we think with all the features that Netge...
Genie software provides easy setup and management. Supports draft 802.11ac. Dual USB ports. Very good performance in 2.4 GHz N-only mode. IPv6 support. Runs cool.
Bizarre design that limits placement. Performance not on par with other Netgear dual-bands. No USB 3.0
Although the Netgear R6300 supports the latest 802.11ac standard (in draft form); an odd design, and surprisingly underwhelming performance running in 11ac mode does not make this router one of Netgear's best....
The Netgear R6300 WiFi Router supports 802.11ac and offers superb performance. It has a nice mobile-app-enabled Web interface that's easy to use
The Netgear R6300 WiFi Router is bulky. Its mobile app only works within the local network and the performance of its network storage and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi band could be better
The Netgear R6300 WiFi Router is for a high-standards, low-ego type of user: it's not something you can show off aesthetically, but a powerhouse for a robust, fast home network, both for now and tomorrow.
Attractive design, Well featured, Decent performance

Overall we are impressed with what the Netgear R6300 has to offer. The eye catching design of the router is sure to entice the design conscious consumer, especially when close inspection highlights excellent build quality.In terms of functionality, the R...
Overall, the best routers are the ASUS RT-AC68U, Apple AirPort Extreme, D-Link DIR-868L, and the Netgear R7000 Nighthawk, with Apple's offering being the fastest in almost every test. You cannot ignore this router when strictly focusing on performance, ...
Abstract: The R6300 is Netgear's first 802.11ac router and has quite dramatic styling, looking like a glossy black slab on its side but it's also very large for a router. A white illuminated logo graces the centre, with three unobtrusive status lights along the ...
With high speed internet fast becoming the standard across not only the UK but most of the connected world, its great to see a new line of routers that can not only handle the high speed connections on a wired basis but also over wireless as well. The R63...
