QuestionDoes mesh system support 160 MHz channel on WiFi 6? The AX6000 does not and was concerned about this.
Asked 5 years ago by Rent.
- Answer No, this only supports up to 80MHz. Netgear does not come out and say this but you can tell from the specs. WiFi 6 supports up to 1200 Mbps per stream but that is only on a 160MHz channel. When WiFi 6 is restricted to 80MHz, the max is up to 600mbps per stream. Since they only claim 2400 Mbps combined on the 4 stream 5 GHz backhaul and 1200 on the 2 stream 5GHz fronthaul, it must be on 80MHz.

QuestionDoes the orbi work with the nighthawk routers?
Asked 5 years ago by suprmn43.
- Answer It actually replaces the Nighthawk altogether. I just replaced my Nighthawk X6 with this Orbi setup and it’s so much better on the Wi-Fi. Works especially well in congested areas where your neighbors are really close and everyone has Wi-Fi.

QuestionI’m between this and the AC3000. Is there any significant noticeable speed difference to justify the price difference?
Asked 5 years ago by Snack.
- Answer This is a tough one to answer unless someone upgraded from one to the other. I only have the 4200. But the 4200 is essentially the new version of the 3000, which has been sort of the Orbi workhorse. The main difference being WiFi 6. Ordinarily you wouldn’t see any benefit from WiFi 6 unless you have one of the few new devices that are WiFi 6 compatible. In this case though, even if your devices are only WiFi 5 you can get faster speeds because at least the satellite is connecting to the main router using WiFi 6. Because there is less dropoff from router to satellite you should see significantly faster speeds. Its more noticeable the more internet you have coming into your house or if you think you will have trouble with coverage (like multiple floors/walls). So bottom line, the 3000 will most likely work well for you. But if you are worried about wifi coverage over distance or through obstacles or if you have gig speed internet coming into your house and want to “future proof” as new WiFi 6 devices come out that will connect at about 20% faster speeds, then go for the 4200.

QuestionWill this work for Verizon FIOS out of the box to replace the Verizon router? Do I need to get an additional modem?
Asked 5 years ago by ch81.
- Answer that depends on how internet is brought into your home. If your internet service is brought into your home via coax cable, you will need your Verizon modem. However, if it is brought in directly via an ethernet cable, then the router (not the nodes) could replace your fios modem. It may require Verizon to enable an outside modem to connect to their network, but should be a matter of plugging in the orbi directly to that incoming ethernet cable to work

QuestionHow do I get this thing off of 5G band.
Asked 5 years ago by Butterm.
- Answer By default both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands are activated with the same wifi SSID name. The attaching devices will choose which network band to use based on their own criteria, performance etc.. You can disable the individual bands by using the web browser interface to the normal router address 192.168.1.1 entered on the browser address line. At the login window, enter admin as the username (it's always admin) and your router access password. Select Wireless on the left side and you will see the wifi band switches. You can disable the individual bands here. Most attaching devices have both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz capability but beware that many older attaching devices may only have 2.4Ghz capability and will lose connectivity if that band is disabled. .

QuestionDo both devices plug in?
Asked 4 years ago by John.
- Answer If by "plug in" you mean, plug into a wall socket for power, then, yes, they both must plug in. If you're asking about "plug in" and mean plug into your modem, then no -- only the wifi router plugs into the modem. The other device (satellite) needs to get power from a wall socket but gets its internet signal from wifi from the router. The pair of devices worked very well for my wife & I in our house, but I ended up deciding I needed a second satellite (and couldn't buy just a single satellite to add to my router + satellite pair I'd gotten from BestBuy, so I opted to buy it elsewhere). Loving the speed from my three-unit mesh, though -- downloads usually around 400-450 mps for cable-based 400 mps service!!)

QuestionWhere can you buy additional RBS750 Satellites for this RBK752 system? Can't find them anywhere being sold individually. Also is there an outside satellite for this system????
Asked 5 years ago by MRNG.
- Answer Additional satellites aren’t available yet to buy individually. You would have to buy an entire system right now to get an additional satellite.

QuestionIs this compatible with AT&T Fiber gateway BGW320-505?
Asked 3 years ago by SteveW.
- Answer You would have to put the gateway in passthrough mode. This disables the router functions of your gateway and allows you to connect it to a different router and WIFI setup. In passthrough mode, itll work with this mesh system

QuestionI am planning to buy this and one more satellite. My house is 6000 sqft including basement. If I put one centrally on all three floors will this cover my whole house? My house has 16 rooms total.
Asked 4 years ago by Deets.
- Answer I can't say for sure in your case but my house is about 6000 sq ft as well with open unfinished basement, 3-floors incl basement. I don't have as many rooms so I don't have as many walls as you. We do not need internet in the basement so we didn't buy with that in mind. We purchased ORBI plus 2 satellites and that does it for the 2 main floors. ORBI and 1 satellite at the opposite ends of the first floor plus 1 satellite on the 2nd floor. You might have to experiment with the location of the satellites to get the best signal as they an project upwards and in all directions. Also depends on the number of devices and walls. If you have a ton of devices, besides the obvious TV/computers/tablets/phones, like blinds, appliances, door bell, wireless security system, these will chew up internet speed pretty fast. I just did a speed test in the basement and I got the results you see in the pics. With Fios 1 GBps, I got 889 / 930 MBps in the space underneath the router and 594/913 MBps at the furthest point from the router but in the space under where 1 satellite is. Hope this helps.

QuestionDo I still need to get internet (WiFi) or it has Wi-Fi and it's all I need?
Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You still need a modem/gateway from your internet provider. So, yes, you will still need to have an internet subscription with a service provider. The modem/gateway does not have to be wireless as this will provide your wireless connection. Modem/Gateway is essentially what brings the internet into your home from the wired connection provided by your internet provider (AT&T, Comcast, etc...) Wireless Router (this product) will distribute your connection through 'wireless' signals
