Getting to know your router
The NETGEAR R6300v2 Smart WiFi Router with AC1750 dual band delivers the worlds faster 
WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi and Gigabit Ethernet speeds, this router offers ultimate performance in 
wireless coverage for large homes. The R6300v2 comes with a dual-core 800 MHz processor 
with enough processing power to provide you with the best performance, and comes with two 
USB ports for connecting a hard drive or printer; including one USB 3.0 port that provides access 
speeds up to 10 times faster.
Compatible with next-generation WiFi devices and backward compatible with 802.11 a/b/g/n 
devices, it enables HD streaming throughout your home. With up to 4501+13002 Mbps speed 
and simultaneous dual band WiFi technology, the R6300v2 avoids wireless interference, 
ensuring top WiFi speeds and reliable connections especially for dual band wireless devices like 
iPad and iPhone5.
In addition, Beamforming+ technology boosts speed, reliability and range of WiFi connections. 
The router automatically uses NETGEAR Beamforming+ technology to enhance WiFi 
performance with 802.11ac WiFi devices. Because it’s automatic, you don’t have to turn on 
Beamforming+ or configure it. When you connect to the WiFi network, Beamforming+ focuses on 
your location for even better WiFi performance and speed. Beamforming+ locks onto your 
laptop, tablet, or smartphone, and follows as you move from place to place, so you keep your 
optimal WiFi connection.

1. Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard 802.11 specifications. Actual data throughput and wireless coverage will vary. Network 
conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual 
data throughput rate and wireless coverage. NETGEAR makes no express or implied representations or warranties about this product’s compatibility 
with any future standards. 802.11ac 1300 Mbps is approximately 3x faster than 802.11n 450 Mbps.
2. Up to 1300 Mbps wireless speeds achieved when you connect to other 802.11ac 1300 Mbps devices.
