The Orbi is a mesh device and operates differently than the way we are became used to when setting up routers and signal enhancers. Think of the mesh as as an orb (hence the name) that surrounds your environment. I am using it in a theatre that has areas built from cinder blocks. Under my old router, I would have spots where the signal was weak, and other spots where it was stronger, like you do. With the Orbi, I have found the signal to be pretty consistent regardless of where I am in the theatre. Due to my particular environment, I do experience a little difference in signal strength here and there, but it is so minor as to be negligible. There is a good chance that the Orbi would give you the consistent signal strength you need to conduct WiFi calls anywhere in your house.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It should since it’s a mesh u are at the closest base automatically.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it works in a mesh system so you should be using the one that has the best signal strength.
