Great Routers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great pair of routers and setup was easy as can be! Well worth every penny. No need to reboot my routers when everyone is on their device. My previous routers worked well until I went over 25 devices. We had to fight at that point. With these routers, I don’t have to worry about that. Also enjoy the ease of the app and parental control feature as well

Truly fast internet, some compatibility issues
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These deliver high-speed wireless Internet to your home - as promised. A bit pricey and we dislike the continuous effort to upsell us their Armor security. If you have legacy 2.4GHz equipment, such as Elan HR2 remotes or even for the Blink cameras, you need to disable the AX option for 2.4GHz or they will disconnect regularly and show "wireless connection not available".

Nice but expensive
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Orbi works very well once you have them positioned properly. They are not cheap but you get what you pay for. They have a mobile app that works well and the main web app let's you do everything that you would ever need to configure. The backhaul between the devices works very well. Since there is a hub on the satellite i can hard wire some of my remote devices in other rooms. I highly recommend this device.

Good upgrade from version 4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have used an Apple Watch before, there's not much new with this one other than a larger screen and a few bells and whistles. The screen is noticeably larger at 45mm. The watch itself is more responsive and the screen is clearer than the version 4 that I used prior to this one. The green is real subtle and is a great look. One lowlight is battery life which is mysteriously less than my old version 4 watch.

Best mesh router out there
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After trying Google WiFi, Eero Pro, and ASUS Zen WiFi AX and being unhappy with all 3, the Orbi works great! I have a gigabit connection coming into the house, and really wanted something that would bring most of that to the device via WiFi and the AX6000 does it. I routinely get 500+ Mbps to my laptop and iPad across the main floor of the house. Even outside through the walls I still get 250ish Mbps. If you’re looking for performance, this is the mesh network to get!

WiFi 6 via Ethernet Cable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was not as easy as expected due to Netgear experiencing technical issues on their side. I like the ability to connect my non-WiFi 6 devices to the back of the satellite via Ethernet cables to gain better download and upload speeds. I don’t like having to purchase an annual subscription for the firewall protection unlike my previous ASUS router.

Nice wifi... Not so nice price.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.2 weeks in. I upgraded to gigabit internet, my old orbi system had fried. I am slightly concerned due to the fact that the price of these is high and the price of my original set was high. The upgrade its definitely noticeable. My wifi, home automation and wired internet devices all run smoother. Speed isn't even a consideration. I think we're have truly arrived at a great wifi standard that week last is for most all our needs at this time.
