I reviewed the Netgear Insight WAX610 a couple of years ago, along with the outdoor WAX610Y. Since then, Netgear has continued to expand the range of WiFi 6 access points, and they now have five options for indoors. Sitting at the top of the pack is the new WiFi 6E WAX630E. The WAX615 I am…
WiFi 6E has been off to a bit of a slow start, but it looks like this is the year where manufacturers ramp things up and bring prices down. Last week, the Ubiquiti UniFi U6-Enterprise was announced, and this is the first relatively affordable WiFi 6E device that has launched I am aware of. Priced…
I previously reviewed the superb but extremely expensive Netgear Orbi Pro SXK80, which basically took the flagship consumer Orbi RBK852 hardware and upgraded it with Netgear Insight cloud management. Netgear has now released the smaller SXK30 system which is considerably more affordable, making it appealing for small businesses. Similar to the larger model, the SXK30…

The new Netgear WAX620 is being launched for £219.99, making it around £50 more than the excellent WAX610, which is available…
Netgear are the market leader for networking technology in the small to medium business market and they continue to innovate and expand their product lineup. While my home office doesn’t particularly need business grade hardware I have slowly migrated to business class hardware due to being obsessed with networking performance across the home. I have…
I have previously bought and reviewed the Netgear GC110P 8 port POE cloud managed switch. I found it to be an excellent affordable cloud-managed fanless POE switch that is perfect for advanced home users and small businesses. Netgear has been kind enough to send me the GC510PP 8-port 195w POE switch and the WAC505 Access…
**Update 27/04/2018 – after using the switch for a few weeks now, I have updated the review in regards of its reliability. I have had no issues with it since set up, but I do find the app a bit slow to load and recognise my devices** During my trip to MWC in Barcelona this…
