    R7800 X4s + TG799 - wifi drop offs

    I am running my Nighthawk R7800 X4s wireless router together with a Technicolor TG799 modem. The R7800 is the same as the D7800, but it does not have a modem built in so I need to use an external one. I bought the TG799, because people have recommended it on this forum as one of the most...

    Send me a pm, I have an R7800 in Sydney, bought from Amazon, but currently not using it as we moved house. You can borrow it and test it to see if it’s better.

    Fixing R7800 lag

    Hi, can someone give me some advice? I am having lag spikes when I am playing games in every 5-10 minutes, games become unplayable for 5-10 seconds. Happens both on 2.4 and 5 GHz. Otherwise I have a nice and stable connection with a bandwidth of 45Mbps DL and 18Mbps UL speed. Tried to change...

    Didn't work from here either, it doesn't let me to send you a message. Anyway, I have received an email from Netgear that there is a new firmware available for this modem (.52), but when I click on firmware upgrade in the router's menu, it says I have the latest fw (.46). Also tried the...

    R7800 SmallNetBuilder Review

    I have the same setup at home, that was one of the main reasons I needed this router. It has a much better 5GHz performance than my Asus before. How can I install the Voxel firmware on it? :)

    R7800 SmallNetBuilder Review

    Hi Kamoj, thanks for your reply. The router is using 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies, which are not illegal in Australia. The difference would be the number of channels the router use, but I found out from a local expert that it is not an issue. Also the transmit power should be similar so that...

    R7800 SmallNetBuilder Review

    Thank you. I ordered the R7800 from Amazon and installed it last night. I quickly learned one issue though. In Australia, the R7800 is not available, only the D7800 version (modem+router) and there must be a specific reason why, which I don't know yet. However, the R7800 model I purchased is...

    Do you recommend buying the D7800 now or should I wait until the R7800 will become available in Australia? I am replacing my Asus RT-AC66U.

    R7800 SmallNetBuilder Review

    Hi thiggins, I am trying to buy it in Australia, however I noticed it is listed as D7800 and the specs shows a 1.4G processor only. Can you give me an advice why is the difference from your tested R7800 router? Is the R7800 a new model or it is specifically made for the US market?
