Plug in and get ready for Wi-Fi 6E
Netgear Nighthawk A8000

IF YOU’RE LUCKY enough to have a Wi-Fi 6E router or mesh system, but you’re using an older desktop or laptop that doesn’t support the latest networking tech, then you might not be getting the most out of your network. The Netgear Nighthawk A8000 USB dongle aims to address this— it’s a simple, affordable way to complete the Wi-Fi 6E loop.

You get two main components in the box with the Netgear Nighthawk A8000. First is the Wi-Fi 6E antenna, which looks like a chunky USB drive and folds out to form an antenna. Second is a dock for this antenna, which connects to your laptop or desktop computer via a USB-A cable. You can either plug the antenna straight into your computer, or use the cradle if it’s more convenient for your particular setup or will get a stronger signal.
