Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing speed and range. Mesh routing is the only way to go. A little pricey, but that is typically for the best of its time.

So far the netgear orbi router works just fine.i could say it works great itself.its just that so far its been hard trying to get the ivp6 adressing to show up on my modem or the orbi router.it also took awhile to try to figure out how to bridge the modem to the orbi successfully.i now have it bridged but using xbox one gaming console and wired straight into the orbi router im still only receiving half of the upload and download speeds capable of the orbi router.so the product seems to work great but on my own end and my cable companys end its been very difficult trying to set up and figure everything out to work at top performance.but i am still happy with the purchase.the lady that helped me was very helpful and was very good at her job.

Working fine whatever problem they had is fixed. Working flawlessly easy setup and is super fast. Price is high but not many wifi 6 options on the market.

Great fast reliable system highly recommend……. Love netgear orbi products

excellent system, since I installed I think how I didn't installed long time to go , is very reliable and easy to use

The fastest wifi I have ever experienced and I am a infrastructure lead specializing in expert non sense. Has wpa, wpa2, and wpa 3. Usually get link rates of 1000mbps on the other side of a 2000 sqft house. Basically game wirelessly and since I am average it makes little difference but my link rates are good and I don’t notice slow down at all. Great router and mesh networking item but expensive as all get out. Wifi 6 is worth it but must have compatible devices.

Awesome product, good coverage and connectivity. 4 stars because setup instructions could have been better. Do not change the default wireless name until the full setup is done.

Netgear router is working and is perfectly suited for our house for effective intenet speed

Perfect Mesh for our house. we are over just over 3k sqft and it covers inside and in front and back yard!

I usually never post reviews online, but I was so exasperated by my initial experience with the Orbi AX6000 that I had to warn others. This new Orbi Wifi 6 router launch is clearly being used as a beta test as: 1) The speeds are not as advertised 2) The firmware is not even close to providing a stable experience 3) The software is lacking features worthy of a flagship router of this price point. At this point, you are spending $700 + tax to be a beta tester for Netgear. Before setting up the new Orbi AX6000 set, I was using an Orbi AC3000 set (router + satellite) and it was by far the best router I’ve ever used in terms of speed, stability, and ease of use. It was a very difficult proposition to justify trying out the new set, but given I’ve had the Orbi for 3+ years now and I want to be future-proof when I get more WiFi 6 devices, I decided to try it out (against the better judgement of all the initial negative reviews warning me). My equipment (including for testing): -Verizon Fios Gigabit service (900mpbs+) -Verizon Fios Gateway (WiFi off as per Verizon instructions) -Orbi AX6000 (in AP mode as per Verizon instructions) -iPhone 11 Pro – WiFi -Windows 10 PC – hard-wired to router The initial setup using the phone app was actually straightforward – even more so than when I initially setup the AC3000 (since that was all desktop based initially). However, after setting up a custom SSID, that’s where the issues began. The router would consistently show the purple/pink light and the router and satellite would lose connection. This was even using the latest firmware version (as of 10/30). I would intermittently lose connection. I probably reset, restarted, and rebooted the Fios gateway and router >10 times to just mitigate any potential DCHP issues. Finally, after an hour, the purple light went away and I got a stable connection. However, during the entire setup process, I continuously ran speed tests using Speedtest.net and Fast.com and was only getting 90 mbps down/up. Even after getting a stable connection, my speeds would not budge from 90 down/up. I hooked up my PC direct to my Fios Gateway just to doublecheck, and I was getting my usual 800-900 down/up with no issues. But, 90 down/up were both on the iPhone via WiFi and via my PC hard-wired into the router so my speeds were being severely crippled by the AX6000. I contacted Netgear support and after wasting an hour of my time with their overseas reps finally realized that the 2 support reps I spoke to had NO IDEA how to troubleshoot the device. One support rep told me to disable AX WiFi on the router to isolate the issue. I asked him: if I disable AX features, then what is the point of paying $700 for the new router? Guy was speechless as I’m pretty sure his manual had no idea how to respond to a question requiring critical thinking. It doesn’t make any sense to pay $700 for a router set that is advertised as working out of the box and then having to troubleshoot for 2+ hours turning on/off features. If you have Verizon Fios, be warned that there is a major issue with this new Orbi AX6000. I will try again to troubleshoot tonight because I’m not a quitter, but if I don’t get back to my initial speeds, this thing is going right back to Best Buy and I’m sticking with my old Orbi set. I’ve already wasted enough of my time trying to justify a $700 purchase. Or, I’ll potentially look at the Velop AX set that just came out if it gets good reviews.

This orbi far exceeds my internet speed demands but we have a lot of connected devices and had noticed slowdowns on our old system. This is now working lightning fast!

Great mesh system for a large home. I had a RAX120 Wifi 6 router previously, but it struggled to get signals up to my second floor. It also had issues with connectivity. Not sure if that was due to us having 35+ devices or not... The Orbi 6 AX6000 has been able to consistently get signals to my second floor, and at much higher speeds. The only issue I had was in the initial set up, as the app would not detect the network (perhaps due to my phone updatng to iOS 14) but was able to set everything up on a laptop.

This is the second one I have - the first didn't work - after several hours of frustration and trying everything I could think of or find on internet, I took it back to the store. Looked at other options, but this was the only one in stock, so I got a new on. This set up was simple and now works well. Possibly just a bad one, but if there was another brand available at that time, I would have likely tried something else.

After months of issues with the home network and an older nighthawk router I pulled the trigger on an Orbi system. We have a 3,800 soft home and this pair is giving us nearly 800 mbps in all areas of our home with over 30 devices connected. The only issue we have is that for some reason every night around the same time we lose connectivity for about 15 minutes on mobile devices. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this. I would highly recommend this setup for anyone having some dead spot issues or high volume of devices

For the high rating that this product seems to get, I was sorely disappointed in the performance. Sure, the application and setup are straight forward and easy, but each unit is 3 or 4 times as big as the TP-Link Deco M5 that I currently have. I tried the previous version and had many of the same frustrations and issues whereas the Deco worked and why I bought it several years ago. My Deco units regularly get as good or better speed that this Orbi did, and the ethernet backhaul and seamless WiFi network on my Deco was much better. Moving through my house I don't drop network or have to pick up the other router/ap with my Deco, but I did with the Orbi. The only advantage I see is double the LAN ports, but they were no better than using a separate 6-port device that cost $40! There are options within the setup controls but they only made it worse. I also did a power outage test and many of my devices would not reconnect without my power cycling them after the Orbi was back online. With my Deco, they all reconnect without manual intervention. I'll wait for the Deco X60 or X90 to get WiFi 6 from a router/ap system and I'll not only save at least $200 vs. this, I'll get better speed and it will be much smaller!

Paid the extra for these as I was able to have the internet speeds greater than 1 gb. Also setup LAN backhaul so that each satellite has full speed despite distance from main device.

This system is awesome! It was so easy to set up and works extremely well. I live in a huge house and on an acre property. These get me coverage just about everywhere!

Easy set up. Good speeds! Although it’s possible that with the location of my satellites, there may be some wave interference leading to slower than expected speeds (although still very good speeds).

Still receiving intermittent service. Additionally, it doesn't pick up the WiFi from Samsung TV's. It should be compatible with Netgear Nighthack, but it does not.

Fairly easy to set up, and if you have any questions they have an easy to get a hold of help center
