The Game Booster will cost $50 a year.
The demands on our home networks are higher than ever. The networking needed for gaming was the first thing that the Nighthawk line of routers was designed for. It's trying the same thing with its new line of 6E enabled Orbi mesh routers. The Game Booster service requires a subscription, which is different from the Nighthawk Pro gaming application that is used to setup the XR line of gaming routers.
The Game Booster service for Orbi devices will cost $50 a year, and it raises some questions about why Netgear is charging for a service that was previously offered for free on other devices. It's difficult to understand how this decision can be made when you consider how expensive an Orbi system is.
Game Booster offers more than a simple quality of service. The Game Booster software makes it easier to use QoS, and it also provides you with easy to read metrics to help you fine- tune your home network.
Game Booster should allow you to allocate and reserve bandwidth for both downloads and uploads on a per-device basis, based on ping or location. This service is not meant to replace your PureVPN, according to Netgear.

The Game Booster app has a new feature called integrated ad blockers.
Having more control over your home network is a good thing, however many of the features offered by this paid service are dependent on an ideal network environment among other factors. The ad blocker can be built for a fairly low upfront cost by a savvy user, and they are largely tools that other routers provide for free. The above-average cost of the hardware raises some questions as to whether this paid service will be beneficial enough to merit the subscription.
The Game Booster application will be available for the 750 and 850 series Orbi devices.
