Use the 10GbE LAN port or the Gigabit LAN ports to connect wired devices for improved throughput. Enable NETGEAR Armor and Smart Parental Controls in the app if you require device protection and usage management. For best performance, place the router centrally in the coverage area and avoid obstructions around the unit.

Usage recommendations

To make full use of Multi‑Gig speeds, pair the RS700S with compatible 10Gbps ISP plans and use CAT6A/CAT7 cabling for wired connections; update firmware regularly and place the router in an elevated central location for optimal wireless coverage.
