Nighthawk RS150 WiFi 7 router

The Netgear Nighthawk RS150 is a dual-band WiFi 7 router delivering wireless speeds up to 5.0 Gbps for households that stream 4K video, play online games and run many smart devices at once. It supports up to 80 concurrent connections across 2,250 sq. ft. of coverage using three internal antennas and high-power amplifiers. The unit includes a 2.5 Gbps internet port for multi-gig cable or fibre plans and three Gigabit LAN ports for wired clients.

Compatibility checklist

Verify that your internet service provides an Ethernet handoff compatible with the 2.5 Gbps WAN port and that your existing modem or ONT can supply the desired plan speed. Confirm your client devices support Wi-Fi 7 or earlier standards to benefit from the dual-band 2.4 GHz (2x2) and 5 GHz (3x3) radios. Ensure you have a standard mains outlet for the supplied power adapter and enough shelf space for the 9.8 in tall chassis.

Thermals, noise and power

The router uses passive cooling through its vented enclosure with no moving fans, so operation is silent in normal use. Power draw scales with traffic load across the 2.5 Gbps WAN and three Gigabit LAN ports while the 1 GB RAM and 512 MB flash handle routing tables and firmware. The external power supply converts mains voltage to the low-voltage input required by the board.

Questions about this item

Does the RS150-100NAS include Ethernet cables or a modem in the box?

The router ships with the unit, a power adapter and a quick-start guide. A modem and Ethernet cables are sold separately.

Should I choose this BE5000 dual-band model or a tri-band WiFi 7 router?

This dual-band model delivers up to 5.0 Gbps combined speed and covers 2,250 sq. ft. for 80 devices; a tri-band unit adds a second 5 GHz band for heavier multi-device loads.

What does the 5.0 Gbps WiFi 7 rating mean for my 2.5 Gbps internet plan?

The 5.0 Gbps is the peak wireless link rate; real-world throughput will be lower, but the 2.5 Gbps WAN port lets you use the full speed of your 2.5 Gbps fibre or cable plan.
