Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product. The set up is so easy. I had my internet up and running in 10 minutes and I wouldn't say I'm a tech expert. I've had great coverage throughout my house. The reason I bought this was to help boost coverage to my basement and it has worked flawlessly. The connection ports in routers make it so I can get great speeds when I need them.

I previously had 4 of the EeroPro mesh access points. We always had issues in our home with dropped connections and slow speeds. I switched to these, mind you only 2 of them. They provide full coverage for our whole home with fast speeds and no drops. Wi-Fi 6 makes a huge difference, cannot recommend these enough.

So far Im happy with the Orbi... I've had to reset it a couple times in 7 months compared to once in a year on my Fios router but my range goes well beyond the Fios which is the reason I bought it in the first place! After trying out a few different routers, this router performed the best! Happy with my purchase!

The router is great. The range doubled compared to my old router and so did the speed. I would give it a 4.6 overall because I did have some issues with the setup process via the mobile app. In the end I had to log in to the router from my desktop using the routers IP address listed on NETGEAR’s tech support page.

We have router installed upstairs. Devices downstairs get 180 Mbps. Router is stable under heavy load with Zoom meetings and remote work. The Orb satellite has 2 Ethernet jacks. This is a must have upgrade for today’s remote schooling and work. Setup is easy. One future request is for Netgear to allow setup to proceed without providing them an email.

Easy to set up and get running. I bought this because my old router was dropping connections and I am so glad we picked this one. It has more than doubled the speed of my home network by better managing and transmission. It maxes my speeds to the same I get when testing my ISP at their connection! Well worth the money!

Upgraded from our old Apple Time capsule looking for faster speeds and better range, especially to reach our MyQ garage. Expectations exceeded in every way. Super easy set up and great customer service - beyond happy.

This system is the best we’ve installed to date. It’s the first time with no dead zones without outlet plug-ins. We’ve had no lag on two game systems running at the same time nor smart TV issues while streaming at same time, not to mention phones, computer, laptops etc. It’s our best yet and we are extremely pleased.

Picked this up yesterday. It replaced a Nighthawk that I purchased early in 2019. It was doing fine but started failing and dropping the signal frequently last week. You would think that a $400 router would last more than 18 months. I have a 4000 sq ft home with an odd configuration so I needed something that would cover it completely with no dead spots. The Nighthawk had several dead spots even with extenders added. It was used hard with 24/7 power up and a lot of devices. But I don't think that I'll have the same issues with this setup. Orbi provides excellent speed and full coverage. 4 bars on my iphone even out into the driveway and on the back patio. I thought about buying an extra satellite but now I'm glad I didn't. It isn't needed. Setup took all of 15 minutes. That has to be a record. I also added the 4 year replacement plan so I don't have to shell out another $500 if it fails during that period. Very happy. Highly recommend.

No trouble so far. Easy to install. Good coverage for a duplex office space of 4000sqft

This product is very user friendly and will give you maximum speeds. I pay for 500 mbps from my ISP and get those speeds throughout my two story home (appx 3600 sq ft). The app makes it very easy to manage and even give you notifications when a new device joins your wifi. If you are looking to make the switch to mesh, I would highly recomment orbi.

very easy to set up, app is great, wifi is very strong throughout the house and the rates coming thru are phenomenal! really happy I bought this system. the only criticism I could give is that their customer support could use some work...they aren't the most responsive at times, even if you are trying to purchase something else from them!

I upgraded from a 4 year old Linksys WRT1900AC and this is a game changer. I have about a 2500 sq/ft home and I have coverage everywhere inside. I have 400mbps service and within 0-20 feet of the router I get 450+mbps and at my furthest point, about 40 feet away from the satellite I get 80mpbs. There is definitely some drop of the further away you get but that is still more than acceptable to me. In my old setup I barely got service at all nevermind 80mbps when I was that far away from the router. The wired ports work as expected (gigabit). This is on the high side price point wise but worth it in my opinion. Very easy to set up, lacking some of the more advanced options I am used to having in a router but for home use I don't see that as a con.

By Aadoc my new NETGEAR Orbi Mesh system has eliminated dead zones in my house and my internet speeds on WIFI are much faster than from my original router. Even my garage now has excellent speed and coverage!

Roaming, WIFI devices switching data connection between the Orbi base and satellite, is working extremely well. There is a lot of information on the internet about sticky clients, -69 db, and so on such that I did not expect near seamless roaming. Yet my 11 year does not stay put streaming on two ‘i’ devices, one for online gaming and the other for group chat all working well. With gig fiber-to-home, 920 mbs at the router, devices see over 900 mbs within 20 feet and generally no less than 300 mbs within 30 feet and one or two standard drywall walls. These are internet speed tests and not device to device on the Orbi network which would be faster. Day in and day out we are running 3 to 4 video streams concurrent with another wired video conference and VPN connection for me. As with any non-Telco router it is a little tricky to get the telco device into ip-passthrough or bridge mode. There is a lot of device specific information on the internet to help. System: northeastern Illinois area telco gig fiber, BGW 210-700 telco router, Orbi RBKS750, wired Cat 5e network out from the RBS750 to an 8-port switch including wired backhaul for the Orbi RBS752 satellite. Best.

Enjoying the Orbi quite a bit. It replaced a Netgear Nighthawk XR500 gaming router and it definitely is an improvement in connection and speed throughout the house. And this is coming from someone who only has a 60mbps internet connection (best available here) and no WiFi 6 devices (yet). I also love the Orbi app and simplicity of the router.

So far so good. Seems to be worth the price and covers the square footage nicely with the satellite router. My old router seemed to only be able to handle a certain amount of devices connected to it, but this one is faster and covers more devices.

Good price Good signal and very fast and easy to set up

I bought this mesh router to deal with the fun of trying to have a network in a house with concrete and plaster walls. It works amazingly well. We have an addition that has a concrete block wall from the original construction between the satellite and router. I get blazing speeds from the satellite. Installation with the manufacturer app is easy as can be. I’ve set up routers the old fashion way before. The app made it super easy. I would definitely recommend this product if you don’t want to spend $700 on a router but still want a mesh router which has both WiFi 6 and great speed.

Very good, set up was good except for issue with anti virus. Once set up it works well. Good range, excellent speed and no issues. App is good, but once set up I no longer bother with it. Mesh is superior to my old single unit. Company support worked.
