Amazon is currently offering the ARRIS SURFboard mAX Plus Wi-Fi 6 Mesh System (AX7800) for $375 shipped. Also available for the same price at Walmart. Usually selling for $500, today’s offer saves you 25%, is the first time we’ve seen it under $450, and a new all-time low. Comprised of two routers, this mesh system blankets your home in 6,000-square feet of Wi-Fi 6 coverage. Enjoy speeds up to 7.8Gb/s second, ensuring that everyone in your household will be able to stream video, play games, and backup their machines without bottlenecking your network. Notably, there’s a dedicated backhaul band that ensures both routers can dish out peak performance. Four gigabit Ethernet round out the notable features. Rated 4.8/5 stars and we previously featured the mAX Plus system in our roundup of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers. More below for a Google WiFi deal.
Update: Google is currently offering a certified refurbished 3-pack of its Google WiFi System for $179 shipped. Originally selling for $299, today’s offer matches our previous mention for the all-time low on the brand’s previous generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi router package. This mesh Wi-Fi system covers up to 4,500-square feet and offers a maximum of 1.2GGb/s network speeds. Each of the routers also feature dual Gigabit Ethernet ports. Includes a 1-year warranty. Over 12,000 shoppers have left a 4.8/5 star rating and you can learn more in our hands-on review.
Complete your network upgrade by picking up some Ethernet cables to get your new networking gear setup. Monoprice’s Slimrun Cat6A cable is one of our favorite options, with a 5-pack starting under $9. I’ve wired most of my network setup together with these cables, and have found them to be quite reliable and easy to work with.
If the featured 802.11ax deal isn’t to your liking, have a look at NETGEAR’s Orbi Wi-Fi 6 System. Not only is it $100 off right now, but this discount is the second-best price we’ve seen to date. That’s on top of our recent UniFi Diary piece, where we took a hands-on look at Ubiquiti’s AmpliFi Alien Wi-Fi 6 router.
