Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've been using my existing router for the past few years. While it has worked well, I've had issues with dead spots in my 2300 square foot home. I also didn't have the best range. I was hoping that this Orbi mesh system from Netgear would help with these issues and I was pleased to see that they did. While it doesn't have all of the specs/features that some higher end (and more expensive) systems have, I found it more than capable of providing excellent Wi-Fi throughout my home. Setting up the system on the app was the best experience I've had when hooking up a new router. I was half-expecting to run into issues as I typically do with router apps, but they seem to have made this set-up process idiot proof. I appreciate this because even some of us tech savvy people can get frustrated when things don't work right out of the box. Many apps can seem poorly thrown together but I found this one to work as intended and be quite user friendly. After getting everything hooked up and working, I used the system for a few days and the results were like night and day from my old stand-alone router. Not only were my dead spots gone, but my wireless speeds were significantly better on both stories and each corner of my home. With 4 family members often using the internet at the same time for various things, I didn't experience any issues with buffering, slowdowns, or disruptions. If you have a medium to large sized home and utilize your W-Fi for regular activity like TV/movie streaming and casual gaming, this Orbi system would be an excellent choice.

Without sounding off with too much hyperbole, this wifi system extender has been a godsend for my daily life. We live in a somewhat rural area with several outbuildings around our main house where I am often out working in. To now, my home wireless network would not reach these buildings and would extend only maybe 20 or 30 feet from the exterior of the house. This Netgear system has changed all of that. Setting it up was straightforward, and now I have a strong wifi signal out to all of the buildings, so I’m never out of range with my phone nor my laptop if I have it with me. Similarly, we have had plans to finish a portion of our basement for my wife to use as a home office. Until now, the situation in the corner of the basement where we want to locate the office suffered the same signal strength problem as did the outbuildings, and we were not sure what to do. But not anymore. With this wifi system, the signal in all parts of the basement is as strong as anywhere in the house and will work well for the office. If you have a large property or have a need for your wifi signal outside of your main house of if you have signal strength problems within your house in some locations because of distance from the wifi router, don’t waste another minute. Get one of these systems, install it, and you will wonder why you waited so long.

So far so good! This product meets our expectations perfectly.
