Licensing NETGEAR Exium on your PR60X, made simple

The PR60X 10G/multi-gigabit dual WAN Pro Router already gives growing businesses a fast, reliable foundation. Add a PR60X security license, and that same router becomes a modern security gateway powered by NETGEAR Exium, with no extra appliances or rack space required.

As NETGEAR Exium security moves into full availability, we are simplifying how you get started. The free trial for PR60X security licensing is being retired on October 31, 2026, so all new activations will begin with a paid license and full protection from day one. Here is what that means for you, whether you are currently using the trial or licensing PR60X security for the first time.

What your license unlocks

• Modern firewall and threat prevention: IDS, DNS filtering, and web security, all managed from the cloud
• Zero Trust access: agentless Zero Trust Network Access secures users and devices without VPN complexit
• Insight Security Center: deploy and manage licenses across every site and client, with one-click access to the NETGEAR Exium dashboard
• Management and support built in: every PR60X security license includes NETGEAR Insight management and NETGEAR support

If you are on trial today

Your current trial runs through October 31, 2026, and every security feature keeps working as it does now. You can convert to a paid license at any point, and the switch is seamless: no downtime and no re-provisioning. Your configuration, policies, and data carry over automatically.

Keep in mind that a trial cannot be restarted or extended. Once it ends, NETGEAR Exium security features stay off until a paid license is in place, so converting before your end date keeps protection running without a gap.

If you are a new subscriber

Purchase a 1-year, 3-year, or 5-year PR60X security license from an authorized NETGEAR distributor or reseller. You receive a license key to enter in NETGEAR Insight, and you renew through your partner at the end of the term.

Want security from day one? Buy your PR60X with a security license, and protection activates as soon as you onboard your router in NETGEAR Insight.

How activation works

1. Get your license. Buy a termed license through your partner.
2. Add it in NETGEAR Insight. Enter your license key in the NETGEAR Insight Security Center. Monthly plans are applied for you.
3. Go live. NETGEAR Insight assigns the license to your PR60X and NETGEAR Exium security turns on. Set policies from the NETGEAR Exium dashboard.

Bought your license before your router arrived? It waits in NETGEAR Insight and attaches to your PR60X automatically when you onboard it.

Built for MSPs

MSPs can purchase termed licenses for an entire client portfolio through distribution, then allocate them to individual client organizations in Insight. Multi-tenant management keeps every client separate while you manage them all from one place.

Staying protected

NETGEAR Insight is your single source of truth for license status, coverage, and expiration dates. Renewal reminders appear well before a license expires, and a grace period keeps security features running while you renew. You can also move from a monthly plan to a multi-year term at any time.

Get started

Log in to NETGEAR Insight and open the Security Center to choose your plan, or contact your NETGEAR partner to select the term that fits your business.
