Satisfied!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a much-needed upgrade from my first-generation Google mesh wi-fi routers. I am now seeing the network performance I am paying for when I perform speed tests across my devices. My wi-fi coverage has also improved drastically (despite previously having 6+ Google pods and still having coverage issues). Lastly, my network appears to be more stable. I would take off one star for the setup (took me 3+ hours for some reason) but I am so satisfied with my overall purchase.

Orbi orignal and replacement does not work.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased my Orbi in Jun 15 2024, the item worked well for approximately three months, Then started noticing buffering which continued to get worse. Reset the unit several times with no improvement. Reach out to customer service after troubleshooting, it was determined the unit was faulty. A replacement unit was shipped out and setup, It worked for approximately 1 week and the buffering started again. The unit will not even connect to the internet. I have spent approximately. 700 dollars for this unit. I cannot even list the item for resale to recoup any of my money due to the fact, this replacement is faulty as well. I am reaching out to Best Buy and Netgear to see how this can be corrected.

Amazing mesh network!

lighting fast!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took me 3 routers of upgrading before I settled on this one. Worry-free lightning speed wifi around my house without drops or disconnections. I purchased the Eero and the Eero pro before this and had so many drops with connection with those. This is definitely what I wanted with my 1gbps speeds.

Good but not great
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This wasn’t the miracle product I was hoping it would be. I have a old house with thick walls. It took a while to find the best placement for the satellites. Even then, I will need to find new locations after COVID so they are more hidden. All that being said, in its current position in the house we get great connection and speed everywhere. We upgraded our internet plan with everyone at home and we needed a router to support it. As we start switching our technology to Wi-Fi 6 we will hopefully see even more value.

Worth the Price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old Orbi stopped working after having them for five years. So I needed news one to replace my old set. With myhome being three floors and 4,500 square feet. I was surprised to see these Orbi’s cover my entirr home with blazing fast speed with two untis. My old set had three. Worth the money, even though they are a little pricey.

potential to be even better
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tried this vs the Asus Zen wifi AX units. This is more stable and faster. Doesn't work with circle (which is a rip off that they farm out the kid's computer control to Disiney for money despite spending nearly $1000) and limited time of support from Netgear. Biggest complaint is the same as all Orbi routers. Interface is poor. Limited adjustments to network. Considering the cost, wish the Asus unit had been as good since much better network protection, ability to change settings and setting times for the connected electronics.

Put a warranty on your device / My second one
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good powerful router but understand if you really need a mesh router. Before you buy one if you live in a small house under 1500sq feet or smaller you don’t need one. I would say this is more for that 1800 sq foot house or bigger. If your modem is in a horrible spot in the house where you have horrible range Or a up stairs downstairs house. Also note your router will only give you the speeds you pay for. If you pay for 200gb don’t expect because you paid 700 dollars for this router it will improve your speeds that not going to happen. Last put the warranty on your router it is a electronic. It is a 100 percent guarantee this product will fail at some time this is my second one. I’m not mad because I understand how Technology is so I covered my own self do the same for your self.

Great WiFi choice!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best decision we made so far when it comes to our internet. We both work from home, have a ton of wireless or smart devices and so having the coverage all over the house is great! No lost connection, fast internet, etc. It works great with a DOCSIS 3.1 32x8 modem with either 100Mbps internet or 1Gbps fiber.

Fast as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Orbi provides an amazing mesh network and is by far the fastest I've tried. On a 1Gb network was getting almost no loss off the satellites. Super fast and easy to set up. Con: user interface doesn't provide the needed support. For parental controls requires additional purchase and subscription. Cant set up family network or control screen time without additonal purchase and subscription.

Not Quite 1 Gig Wifi
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the AX6000 to replace the AC3000 Orbi routers I already had set up when I switched from a 600mbps plan to a 1gig plan in hopes I would be able to get closer to 1gig over wifi. I was getting around 600mpbs on the AC3000 and when I set up the AX6000 I was getting ~650mbps, not close to the 800+mbps I was hoping to get. The coverage is outstanding with the AX6000, I was getting slightly faster speeds than the AC3000 the further I got away from the router (I took several before/after tests and charted them from different rooms). I am returning the AX6000 not because it is not a great mesh router, it absolutely is, but mainly because it is still not able to get me the 800mbps I wanted over wifi and I don't have any wifi 6 devices at this time. It is tough for me to stomach a $700 purchase for only a marginal increase in wifi speeds. I hope this is helpful because I had a tough time finding reviews that compared the real life wifi speeds of the AC3000 and the AX6000. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone who has an older/slower router as it will be future proof and has great coverage but for me, the AC3000 is still performing almost as strong as the AX6000 so I will hold off.

great so far
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easily doubled the speed of the Linksys AC2400 mesh Wi-Fi I replaced. Slow-ish but easy setup and much nicer app than the Linksys Velop one. It’s only 2 days so far but everything seems to be better than my previous setup. Satellite maxed out at over 500Mbps on speed tests but I think it’s the limit of the test tool instead of the available bandwidth.
