    This was a replacement of an older Netgear router which worked well but had limitations. I always had connectivity issues on the far end of the house. Adding a mesh system eliminated all of the dead spots! Adding wifi 6 and 7 increases the wireless access speeds on the devices that support it. Connectivity issues have disappeared - I should have upgraded a long time ago! Installation was pretty straightforward. It has an app for most of the configuration but being an IT guy for the past 20 years I like the web interface that allows you to configure just about anything.

    The Orbi WiFi is excellent! We cover our entire 3000sq ft house with the two or Orbi setup. It provides full coverage, powers over 20 devices and has no delay or loss of strength regardless of location. Setup was easy and fast!

    Ok, but not good

    These are pretty bad, got it for a larger house, about 15 years old. It has some decent speeds, a bit faster than Wifi 6 over wifi... however I would get consistent packetloss like every 20-30 minutes while playing a game. The coverage and power through walls and over long distance is very poor. Definitely not worth the money you pay for these, Eero pro maxs7s do better.

    Pretty easy to set up and it is pretty fast! I don't have any problem connecting in my bedroom now and this is a big upgrade from the Google Nest system that I have had for the past 5 years.

    Bad Mesh, Bad coverage, dropped wifi

    Super weak at coverage, even when spaced correctly it underperforms considerably to earlier models and versions. Experienced LAN drops until the latest firmware update, also experienced and continue wifi drops. No changes to web or app interface, but am unsure why Netgear hasn't fixed the signal issues. Will probably return after Christmas as their customer support has been extremely difficult to navigate for most users and the delay in fixes is perplexing for the amount of money this costs. I have 2700 sq feet to cover and it claims 8000 feet. Lots of dead spots and drops even by the router and satellites, similar to what others are experiencing. Netgear has really lost a step with these new upgrades, whole lotta price, not much on performance delivery. Will have to look elsewhere for a better mesh system for my home.
