    NETGEAR's app made the installation process run smoothly. Only hurdle I had to overcome was setting my fiber router to be passthrough to not have dual WiFi competing. We have much better connection throughout our entire property now - including the garage which is excellent.

    We weren’t sure about going to Wi-Fi 7, but this was a great purchase. The setup was super easy and things are working very well

    We upgraded from an older Orbi mesh system. The set up was super easy. I really like the app and control over my network. I have a good strong signal throughout the house and outside.

    Netgear Orbi programmed is so easy and the coverage is awesome. The WiFi 7 is super fast and getting great speed on WiFi. Easy to install satellites just hook up to power. We are on a 2 story and get more coverage in the front yard and back yard. Speeds are just super fast now.

    The Orbi wifi 7 gave very good instructions for set up making installation painless. It is allowing me to get faster results from my modem. I recommend it.

    I was having issue getting Wi-Fi at my new house it’s around 2,600 sqft with a basement now with this I can get Wi-Fi everywhere in the house, and outside. Was pretty simple to install and the app makes it easy to manage. I by no means consider myself tech savvy but I don’t have to be with this

    So far so good. Moved into a new home and needed maximum strength wi-fi for work. So far this system has met expectations and everything seems to be streaming/running with no issues. Setup was super simple. Happy with the purchase.

    As advertised. We used an orbi system for years with zero issues. I wanted to upgrade to a new version and this one didn’t disappoint either.

    Overall, it was very complicated to set up, took several hours on the phone to get it all taken care of according to the app. I have great Internet service, but unfortunately, the TVs and cell phones and tablets are running very slow and my security system cannot hook up to it.

    Speed , range, coverage these were very good but the fact that some of the good parental control and management features you had to subscribe for made me return it.

    These work great they were easy to setup and alot smaller of a footprint then I expected compared to other orbi routers. We have had a few months now with no complaints.

    Easy for a seasoned person to set up, with a little help from a phone call for tech assist. Occasionally there is a slight lag in my family room, which is on the other side of the house, but I'm still happy!

    I've used Orbi before and upgraded to it again for more speed. I guess my only gripe is the app for setup doesnt always work very well but if you keep at it then it works

    Was easy to which over from the old one. Have a 3 level house and lots of floors and walls to send the signal through, and it worked just fine.

    This mesh system replaced one of the early Orbi systems, that was not slated to get any more security updates. I was already familiar with the the app. and operation of the system. Setup was easy, but a couple of older devices would not connect, or kept going off-line. I called the 800 number and was walked through activating an IoT network. That has pretty well solved the problem with one device left to go. I don’t know if this could have been worked into the initial release, but it would have made like a bit easier. Perhaps it was only discovered later. In summary, I’m happy with my new Orbi upgrade and do recommend it to those needing to upgrade. The overall performance of the network is improved, and I’m already prepared to take advantage of WiFi 7 as we replace devices in the next few years.

    I am not the most techy person, but the Orbi was VERY easy to setup and use. Having the Armor software makes our systems secure.
