    I picked this up to future proof my wifi and to also extend my range to the garage out back. This product provided the range and speed I was looking for. Granted, these aren't cheap, but wifi 6 in general is expensive.

    Excellent mesh WiFi: fix HomeKit not responding

    I have had an OG Orbi for about six years and never had any issues with it. However when we moved it died. (Unplugged it and it never powered back up). I decided to try and get something a little cheaper and went with an ASUS XT8. I had nothing but problems with it. Including all my HomeKit devices constantly showing unresponsive. I bought the new Orbi (like I should have to begin with) and it instantly resolved all the HomeKit issues. It also hands off from one AP to another more smoothly and provides better speeds.

    Great system. I love that the satellites can be wireless yet not degrade performance like an extender would. Really solved my problem getting the signal out to the ends of the home and yard.

    Seems to do what it’s supposed to. I upgraded from an older orbi. Setup was a bit frustrating, just to go through it a few times. All in all, it’s fast and works. That’s what I need.

    Does What it Says

    I needed a System to cover 4,000 sq ft including two separate upstairs areas that have foil-backed roof decking that blocks signals. This system, albeit more expensive than I’d like, does the trick. I can move anywhere in the house as well as into the garage and both front and back porches. Got a boatload of devices attached (surprised how many when I started checking connections) and no problems with any of them. In fact, it solved a connection issue I was having in the garage. Setup was simple, except that I didn’t think about printer access for my mobile devices, then once I switched the hardwire printer connection to the Orbi I had to switch the other hardwire devices as well to maintain access to the printer. My bad, just wasn’t thinking.

    I have had these for a few weeks and they have been reliable. I have more coverage than I have had before. Although these were expensive, I won't need another router for many years to come.

    Great Tri-band mesh system! Provides internet for a surprising distance, I can go to the house next door and still get 2 bars of internet from my own house! Solid system overall! It did take a bit of struggle to set up, but once it was set up, it worked perfectly.

    Since we made the switch it’s so much better connection is super fast. Being able to create a guest password so you don’t have a million people connected to your device with no way of booting them off is a plus.

    We recently purchased the Orbi system and all I can say is WOW. It has exceeded my expectations by a mile. We had the google nest system prior to this one and it has outperformed that system in every way. I cannot recommend this system enough

    Orbi AX6000 is a fantastic product

    So my wife and i purchased a 4700 square foot home on Hilton Head Island, SC. Most of it is on one floor, but there is a 700 square foot bonus room above the garage. We signed up with Spectrum and received their standard router. The coverage was horrible. I purchased the Orbi product and installed the router on the first floor and the satellite in the bonus room which is on the other side of the house. The advertised down load speed is 400 mbps. We are getting 400 mbps throughout the entire house. We have a lot of connected devices and the system is fantastic. It works as the sales guy at best buy said it would.

    So far, this system has been working out great. The install and setup was very easy. It should fit my needs several years into the future. I bought this system to replace a much older Netgear router that I had for about twenty years, I think.

    Disable 5ghz

    I bought the mesh system to connect to all my appliances and smart devices like Wemo light switches. I worked with Orbi technical support and there is no way to disable the 5ghz network to program the devices that only operate 2.4 ghz. To program these devices, your phone must be on the network you want the device to connect to. There is not way to tell my phone to connect to 2.4 ghz network to transfer this information to the switch. The range and speed of the network was amazing but if you cannot connect your devices, it is pointless.I now have to return the product to get a mesh system that allows this option.

      Hi James,

      Thank you for the feedback on connecting your 2.4Ghz devices. While your devices should connect to 2.4Ghz automatically if they do not support 5Ghz. You are not able to disable the 5Ghz band, but we can help look into ways to get this to work better for you. Please email us at netgearteam@netgear.com

      Thank you,

      NETGEAR Team

    This really offered more speed and offered wifi to more of our outdoor space. It's a huge improvement over the last ORBI system we had and we were happy with it but it was maxing out on the number of wifi devices we had in our home. It was time to upgrade....good decision.

    It took a bit longer to set up than I thought and have been unable to get the Netgear Armor installed for some reason - even tech support had to port into my laptop to try a backend solution, All that said, when I am able to get a steady internet signal from Xfinity the download speeds are outstanding. It also has pretty good range and I will look to add an exterior satellite if/when available to give us coverage into our backyard. Since I was going from a nighthawk it was easy to replicate the name of the router (and password) so all our connected devices could easily reconnect.

    Easy and fast set up with great speeds. 2 is definitely enough for a 2500sq ft house. Upgraded from eero pro to these since my eeros were having issues keeping a connection.

    Love the ease of installation and the stability of Orbi mesh WiFi 6. We tried a three unit mesh system from another manufacturer and spent weeks and many hours on the phone with tech support trying to get it to work reliably. Finally returned it and got the Orbi RBK852 and we are so glad that we did. Set up was a breeze and we now get great WiFi speed everywhere in the house. Our Orbi is also very stable and reliable. We recently had an internet service interruption, as soon as internet was restored, the Orbi router and the Orbi satellite came back on line with no action required by us. Absolutely love the Orbi, no more WiFi problems!
