      The Netgear RS300 delivers high data rates via Wi-Fi 7, and saves where it doesn't hurt too much in everyday life. If you are looking for Wi-Fi 7 (or 6/6E) with high performance at a rather favourable price, this is the right choice.

      The Netgear Nighthawk RS700S is a powerful pre-Wi-Fi 7 router with fast interfaces and many functions. However, its RRP of 900 euros is no bargain considering what it offers.
