Title: Netgear's R6300v2 dual-band 802.11ac router is down to $70 today Post by: HCK on March 07, 2017, 04:05:13 pm Netgear's R6300v2 dual-band 802.11ac router is down to $70 today
<article> <section class="page"> <p> If you’ve been waiting for an dual-band 802.11ac router to drop below $100, you’re in luck. Amazon is selling the Netgear AC1750 R6300v2 smart router (https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-Router-AC1750-Gigabit-R6300v2/dp/B00EM5UFP4/ref=gbps_tit_s-3_bb19_8b6ea5f1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=41fd713f-6bfe-4299-a021-d2b94872bb19&pf_rd_s=slot-3&pf_rd_t=701&pf_rd_i=gb_main&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=H7H84WDDCGJXC2KA6CZG) today for $70. That’s about $22 off Amazon’s list price and well below other online retailers, and a return to the lowest price we’ve seen.</p><p> The R6300v2 has a few features in common with Netgear’s R6400 (http://www.techhive.com/article/2960533/home-networking/netgear-r6400-review-netgear-s-latest-mid-range-router-is-a-solid-value.html), which we reviewed in August 2015—though the two routers look nothing like each other. Like the R6400, the discounted R6300 features a maximum throughput of 1300 Megabits per second on the 5GHz band and up to 450Mbps on the 2.4GHz band. Netgear also added beamforming (http://www.techhive.com/article/2061907/all-about-beamforming-the-faster-wi-fi-you-didnt-know-you-needed.html) to the router to help boost the speeds and range you can get throughout the house. Unlike the R6400, however, the R6300v2 has three internal antennas. The former’s antennas are external.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3176528/networking/netgears-r6300v2-dual-band-80211ac-router-is-down-to-70-today.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Netgear's R6300v2 dual-band 802.11ac router is down to $70 today (http://www.macworld.com/article/3176528/networking/netgears-r6300v2-dual-band-80211ac-router-is-down-to-70-today.html#tk.rss_all) |
