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.
Good 802.11ac speeds, Excellent 802.11n speeds, 4x Gigabit LAN ports, Comprehensive features, Easy to install

Needs 802.11ac adapters to work best, Hardware design a little awkward, Parental filters not the easiest to set up
Netgear's R6300 is a cream-of-the-crop dual-band wireless router that supports the 802.11ac standard. It's a great overall unit that will work well in any networking environment. Team it up with client devices that support 802.11ac, and it will supply wir...
Excellent user interface. Includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi. Good performance at close to medium range
Lucklustre long range performance. Limited 802.11ac device support at this stage
The R6300 is quite a beast of a router, and it certainly gives a promise of things to come. While we score it highly, we'd hold off on purchasing anything 802.11ac until client chips are more widespread — by then, there'll likely be something even bett...
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, ...
