Read our full Netgear Orbi Quad-Band WiFi 6E review Should I buy a Wi-Fi 6 router? But, if you can afford it, this is certainly one of the most powerful Wi-Fi 6 routers on the market today. If it wasn't for the price, the Netgear Orbi Quad-Band WiFi 6E would be higher up our list.

It's not particularly fast – only supporting dual-band Wi-Fi 6 with a top speed of 1800Mbps. The Devolo Magic 2 WiFi 6 Mesh combines PowerLine wired connectivity with a mesh system so that no thick brick walls and amount of space can limit your network access.
