Finally getting the actual speeds I pay for. It's extremely fast, and when I say extreme I mean that. My steam deck has never gotten more than 40Mbps on the old RB20 and now it's getting the full 500Mbps from my satellite. I got this expensive ( yes I know it's expensive) to future proof, plus I'm moving soon.
The big test was online gaming. Son played from a Ps5 while I was on my laptop, and two other family members were streaming. It didn't skip one bit.

The easiest set-up and install ever. The instructions are bery clear. The app is simple to use. I have a 2-story basement 4,000 sqft home. Wifi coverage with an Apple Time Capsule was spotty. Now I have 500 GB coverage (my current internet cable subscription) through the whole home. I also love the security features. I paid the premium for a better and easier to use product, absolutely worth it!

We had to put the main line for the internet in a corner of the house. This does a good job of beaming the signal across the rest of our place (~2300 sq ft + 2 car garage). Sometimes my devices won't connect to a particular access point even when it's in the same room, which can be frustrating. Overall, it's been consistent enough for me to WFH (6+ Zoom/Meet calls a day). Would buy again.

Orbi 770 - Great wireless mesh solution. Easily offered extended range in our 8,000 square foot home - 3 levels. Placed one on each floor. No disruption in 1 gig bandwidth. Super easy set up - connectivity and network management. This appears to outperform our previous Eero set up.

I tried setting this up using the app (Android) and had repeated issues. Eventually I found out you can navigate to the admin interface via the browser and do setup there. Once I did that everything worked smoothly. Connection quality is far superior to my Google Nest Wifi Pro, many more options for control. App still has day-to-day use issues, but everything works great on the admin interface. No issues since setup was complete!

Bought this to replace another Orbi system that extenders wouldn’t sync up after 1 year. Bought a brand new one and had a faulty extender right out of the box. Then after hrs on the phone with customer care purchased a replacement for that system. Received the second one got it up and running, returned the first system for a refund. Everything is working well now after 1 month.

We have a 4200 ft house and no other router system would allow us to receive the speeds that we were actually paying for from our internet provider. We tried three other routers and none of them were able to handle the square footage of our house and allow us to enjoy the internet speeds available to us. We are so excited to have a router that is able to cover the square footage. I highly recommend this router if you have a lot of square footage to cover.

I purchased this to replace an old Netgear Orbi system. It's ease of set-up; reliability; and features are hard to beat, that is why I updated to a new Orbi System. It is easily set up in minutes. I had the old Orbi system for 6 years and never had an issue. Plenty of wifi coverage too.

The Orbi 770 was a breeze to setup, at most it took me 20 minutes and I had everything back up and running. The mesh setup provided by metro net did not work well at all, I constantly had lost connections on everything I had connected to the internet especially on the second floor. With the Orbi I have had interruptions any where in the house

NOT WORTH THE HASSLE!!

I bought the Eero Pro 6E as well as the Orbi 770 to try them both out. I set the Eero system up first and it was an absolute breeze. I had it up and running in less than 15 minutes.
The Orbi 770 system was an absolute nightmare to set up. After spending 3 hours on the phone with customer service I still could not get it to connect to my isp. They told me they needed to escalate my case to a tier 2 tech and I would receive a call from them. Well, I finally received a call from them 2 days later and spent 4 hours on the phone with them. They were no help. Finally called my isp and had them on the phone with Orbi (Netgear) support and we did eventually get it setup. However, after one brief power outage both satellites disconnected and I could not get them reconnected and I was NOT about to call customer support again.
I promise I'll wrap this long review up with just a few closing notes.
The Orbi did have really good coverage and speeds. I have 1 gig internet and with Eero I was getting download speeds on my iphone 15 pro max of 680mbps, with the Orbi it was 770mbps.
However, with all of the issues setting up the Orbi and then the satellites losing connection, I decided the Orbi was just not worth it and returned it to Best Buy and I am very happy with the Eero Pro 6E mesh system.

Brand response from Netgear Support

Hi ChrisC,
Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback and we want you to know that your experience is important to us. We're sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with your RBE773 while installing, the Satellites disconnecting after a power outage as well as your Support Experience and have already returned your RBE773.
If your Orbi satellites are disconnected after a power outage, it's because they need to be re-synced with the main Orbi router; simply power cycle your entire Orbi network by unplugging both the router and satellites, then plugging them back in, and press the "Sync" button on both the router and each satellite within a couple of minutes to re-establish the connection. For more information, please visit the following resources: https://kb.netgear.com/000038805/How-do-I-power-cycle-my-Orbi-network, as well as: https://kb.netgear.com/31018/How-do-I-sync-my-Orbi-router-and-satellite.
If you decide to repurchase the RBE773 or any other NETGEAR product and have any issues, please reach out to us at [email protected] with your contact information, and we will be happy to help you.
Regards, NETGEAR Team

Distributes signal well

Easy to setup and distributes the signal well. I have a 4,000 square foot home and this has every corner (including some outside security cameras) connected without a problem. I've put the majority of my connected items (doorbell, cameras, digital photo frames) on one band while keeping things like the TV and working computers on the 5ghz band to ensure they always have the best speed.
Orbi app is better than most networking app/software out there and is fairly straight forward and easy to understand. Highly recommend if you don't need enterprise/pro grade wi-fi but still want to ensure you're getting the best out of a fiber optic or other high speed entry into your home.
