    Outstanding speed and power!

    I bought this Orbi 770 Series as my Nighthawk was at the end of support, this was a 2014 model. So I did a lot of research and determined this was the best choice for me. Set up wasn’t complicated and setting up the satellites was too easy, literally power them and that’s it. My speed is unbelievable! I decided to record my speeds before I took the older router (2014) and Download: 193 Mbs, and Upload: 198 Mbps. The Orbi Download: 673.70 Mbps, and Upload: 469.87! I knew throughput was going to be “better” but this blazing speed is unbelievable. I’m glad I received a courtesy email from NETGEAR letting me know my Nighthawk was at the end of it’s lifecycle, otherwise I would be using a device that might be compromised and not know it and be prone to hacking. Best investment I’ve made so far in tech, and you know sometimes it’s a gamble, but not this time! I’ve been a fan of NETGEAR and this company has NOT let me down.

    I had another Orbi router at my place of work so I already had the app. This was sooo simple to add to my app which set everything up in no time and now I have one app that manages both my home and work routers. Im on a 1gb plan and am consistently getting around 700mbps on my phone via wifi.

    We purchased and installed this mesh system to upgrade and replace our first gen Google mesh system. We have a 5000sq ft house and had to purchase 2 additional satellite units as well. Install was a breeze. The app is also nice and will show signal strength to devices so you can change around your satellite points. Only con - the size of the satellite units are quite large. We were use to the smaller Google points that are easy to tuck away out of sight - not the Orbi units. Overall a great buy!

    Strength and speed from wifi 6 to wifi 7 way better. Just switch from cable internet to fiber. Yes, all of my smart electronics are alive. Also you get the speed you paying. Would buy the 900 series but way off my budget. But highly recommend this Router plus 2 satellites.

    Fantastic Mesh 7 Router

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I previously owned an older AC2200 WiFi 6 mesh router and it was at EOS. Noticed several issues with it and decided it was time to upgrade. I made an investment in a NETGEAR 770 WiFi 7 mesh router with 1 satellite. After the install I performed several speed tests to evaluate the new router. The upload/download speeds were noticeably higher. I had full house WiFi coverage. I was able to configure the new router to have the same network name and password as the old system thus making the upgrade seamless. I even was able to get my subscription of Armor Active transferred to my new system. I can’t say enough good things regarding my experience

    This mesh system works great. Very easy to setup and select various features. Very fast WiFi and great coverage. Setting up an additional 2.4 GHz network was also very easy.

    Welcome Upgrade

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We recently replaced our older, and much outdated, mesh Wi-Fi system with the Orbi 770. The speed difference has been outstanding, and reliability is much greater, even on the wired devices. We chose NetGear as their equipment always allows for far greater customization than other brands. We have a fairly complex home network, and other "plug-and-play" systems lock out the critical features required for proper operation. Installation had a couple of challenges, but nothing that was too difficult if you read the screens properly. Once it is operational, the ability to access the advanced settings via a web browser is fantastic. It was worth the extra money to get the 770 series, and we are very happy with our purchase.

    I had an older NETGEAR Orbi mesh system that worked flawlessly for years but now I increased my internet speed and the old system wouldn’t flow the speed but this new system is amazingly fast with perfect signal to every device and to also have the IOT network on top of the normal network and guest network is great for the smart home devices. I would highly recommend this setup.

    The mesh works perfectly

    Wifi extenders didn't work well in my new home, and required juggling between the signals manually for the best connection. Switched to the orbi mesh and we're seeing seamless swapping between the different signals with no loss in bandwidth 10/10 (Att Fiber w/ ~600Gb speeds hardwired OR over mesh)

    recently bought this product as I was having issues with $1000 dollar mesh system that was loosing internet speed everyday until the system had to be restarted to get back to original speed. After restarting that router multiple times per week, I bought this router that was $300 cheaper and I’ve had no issues whatsoever. I am getting consistent 1600 MBPS download and 350 MBPS upload throughout my house.

    Excellent Wi-Fi 7 system

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The signal from the Orbi 770 Series is really strong throughout my whole house, even in spots where my old router couldn’t reach. Setup was super easy, just a few simple steps following the Orbi App instructions. Performance and coverage are outstanding, although the system isn’t cheap, but definitely worth it for the speed and reliability.

    My older Google mesh system died and I need a new router soon. I saw good reviews for the Orbi 770 series and the price was right. After one week, it works great. Great coverage in my house.

    Instructions were very easy and I got set up quickly. The app is intuitive and helpful. I have a long house with thick stone walls and the Verizon router/modem did not reach most parts of the house. After installing the Orbi 770 I now have the access everywhere and on all floors. Extra bonus with the security scan of all connected devices and blocking of malware and phishing. Top stuff

    We live in the mountains and rely on WiFi because cellular is hit or miss. When we do get it, it’s a pretty weak signal. We had an older model Orbi at our previous residence and it was great! But we were pleasantly surprised at how much faster the Orbi 770 is! We are very happy with our purchase!
