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.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The AC3000 is Wifi 5. The AX4200 is wifi 6
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No there isn’t they both support WiFi 6. Just depends if your carrier supports 1gig speeds and you have that service.
