    Wonder if they plan to upgrade their customer service.

    Not sure how I feel about that design.   It would look cool as a shelf mount, but not very practical for a wall mount.  And the prices aren't really all that far off from what they were charging for the older Nighthawk stuff.  The current top of the line Nighthawk (XR700) is 499.  The X10 is 349.

    Are these Wifi routers so powerful i can turn Afterburner's car from my computa? 

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    The standard has been published but the certification of products as Wifi 6 won't be until 3rd quarter 2019.  These products are likely though to be certified or have a firmware update to make them meet the standard. I am kind of looking forward to the second generation of these. By that time adapters and bridges should have came to market. Not much point in upgrading to a Wif 6 Router when it's hooking into Wifi 5 equipment.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    A wise man once said that we can't make anyone feel or do anything. We can throw things into the wind, but it's up to each person to decide how they want to react, where they want to stand when things fall.

    I think this might be best ax router for me since I have wi-fi 6 supported phone but still I am waiting for 802.11ax enabled laptops.
