For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
    • Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000/2500/10000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
    • Number Of Connected Devices: 200
    • Number of Antennas: 12
    • Frequency Band: 6.0 GHz, 5.0 GHz, 2.4 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
    • Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 6E (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
    • Wireless Standard: AX, AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
    • Wi-Fi Range: 6000 square feet (The device will provide a Wi-Fi connection to this approximate area.)
    • Input/Output Technology: MU-MIMO (Multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple Output) (Generally, multiple-input multiple-output communication technologies allow for more signals to be transmitted at a single time, which can improve the device's overall performance.)
    • Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home. Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)

Q: I have net gear 25 .I have 2 t.v's in different large rooms.i just added 2 ring doorbells. The t.v's are on firestick. My. Internet service is spectrum .Sometimes my picture on large t.v Is blurred. I can't move the wi-fi .

A: Do NOT get netgear routers, especially the ORBI 963, it's garbage !! I had 2 and returned both!! they work great at first then after 2-4 weeks the problems come out I purchased the Asus ET12 and used the official not beta December firmware at home and work and both are faster and more stable than the 963 was ever!! also netgear deletes lots of negative feedback on their forums to attract more suckers.

Q: So this may seem like an odd question but what kind of lifespan should I get out of this? My family and I are frequent streamers of movies, shows, and music. Also use the WiFi a lot for school. I want to make sure I'm not replacing this in 1-2 years

A: In terms of technology it is already a gen behind the latest technology. With that being said, the current gen technology that is out there hardly any devices themselves are using it. How often you use it or how much data you stream really shouldn't effect the life of the unit. The question you need to ask yourself, is how important it is to you to always have the latest generation of equipment for top speeds. I picked this up and at Christmas to replace my eero's I had from a couple of years ago, which were 5G. I replaced the Eero's because, I got tired of not having a true router I could control. Personally, I think you can get a min of 3 years to 5 years with these in place. I'm an IT director and we generally upgrade our wifi infrastructure every 5 years at our offices.

Q: When will this be available for order?

A: 10/31/21 I believe they start shipping.

Q: Are this compatible with xfinity Comcast

A: Yes, but as a router. There is a separate model sold as a modem/router

Q: If I have a dedicated Cat 6e ethernet backhaul does it make this a true quad band since it would free up the 4th "Dedicated" band?

A: No, the 4th band for wireless backhaul is reserved for wireless backhaul and is not usable for anything else.

Q: Will there be a 2 pack available for sale? My house is not big enough for 3 of these and at this price point, I will not buy a 3 pack just to get it.

A: Netgear support articles mention a two pack and the number for it. I believe even the standalone satellite for the 900 series mentions being compatible with a two pack version. However I have not seen any indication of when/if those will be available to purchase.
