• 4620 Mbps - 1SS 802.11ad (MCS12/16-QAM (3/4)),
• 1733 Mbps - 4SS 5GHz 802.11ac (80MHz chan.),
• 600 Mbps - 4SS 2.4GHz 802.11n (40MHz chan., 256-QAM) = AD7000 class

Overview

802.11ac Quad-Stream Wave2 Wi-Fi plus 802.11ad

A new FCC entry (PY317400405) suggests that Netgear has removed Bluetooth

circuitry and antenna in more recently manufactured devices.

See the Expedited Review letter.

Most of the information on this page was copied from the Netgear R9000 since the FCC ID is the same.
This router appears to be a feature-limited R9000 exclusively for Costco like the Netgear AC1450 was.
The only obvious change from the R9000 to this R8900 is the lack of non-standard 256-QAM support

for 2.4GHz 802.11n which reduces the maximum theoretical speed from 800Mbps to 600 Mbps.
