• 1300 Mbps - 3SS 5GHz 802.11ac (80MHz chan.),

• 450 Mbps - 3SS 2.4GHz 802.11n (40MHz chan.) = AC1750 class

Overview

Most of the information on this page was copied from the Netgear R7000 since the FCC ID is the same. This router appears to be a stripped down R7000 exclusively for Costco like the Netgear AC1450 was. The only obvious change from the R7000 to this R6900 appears to be the removal of the USB 2.0 port.

The R6900 was mentioned in the Test Report (NII).pdf dated 10/05/2015.
