Customer Ratings & Reviews

Setup was a breeze, my devices connect faster, and have a stonger/faster signal. My old AC router used to stutter on 4k streams; with the RBK852 I have zero stuttering and zero buffering streaming 4k content.

I decided to splurge on this device and was definitely worth the money. It’s an even better experience if you are able to hardwire the satellite to the router directly like I have to give the system the most stable connection as well as the fastest speeds. I can easily pull 600 megs on an iPhone and with the WiFi 6 technology, I am set for the future when that technology becomes more open and predominant among devices. Also, having a tri band router can help WiFi traffic when you have a high traffic household. In addition, the app is easy to use, but I do find myself using the desktop version as I can access the more advanced settings and set it to what I like. Definitely recommend. I do wish the price was lower but you get what you pay for, especially with the most recent technology.

The review would be 5 star however when using routed mode DNS fails after a day or 2 and requires a reboot to fix the issue. I have tried many different fixes however none have resolved the issue. the issue seems to be with dnsmasq that is integrated in the firmware. Switching to AP mode since I had another router to use resolved my issue however the root problem still exists. Performance and signal strength is great and no issues otherwise with this product. Note to Netgear FIX YOUR DNSMASQ ISSUE IN THE FIRMWARE or allow us to not use dnsmasq.

I had tried all kinds of routers and mesh devices and this bad boy works amazing speeds and signal. Very pricy but it work’s very good. Don’t waste your time trying other mesh devices pull the trigger on this one.

The best mesh system in the market hands down. Cheers

This router was extremely easy to set up. I have no dead zones, and this has given me the fastest connection I have ever experienced. I like that it produces a “guest network” too.

The Orbi is the worst product and support experience I’ve ever had. The connection randomly just turns off. Netgear sent me a new router and then it wouldn’t work with the existing Orbi satellites. Hold times for Orbi support are over an hour. I really wish it was not past the return period or I would return it all. Best Buy should stop selling this as it is junk.

If you want faster internet speed here's the device for you. Consumer reports also recommend this product. Works very well. We have many many devices on our wifi and his makes it even faster then ever!

I would love to rate this correctly when it’s installed correctly by Best Buy. Right now to many dead spots in a 3500 square foot home. For the price tag and geek squad setup I’m not a happy customer.

This is by far the best Wi-Fi experience that I ever had. I'm finally able to fully utilize the speeds offered by my service provider. The system is expensive however I believe that it is well worth it.

Don’t hesitate to purchase this system, it’s extremely fast and does not drop signal anywhere in a two story house. Even gives fast speeds outside of home with no drop.

I added these to my router. A few minutes later, they were no longer visible and struggled to get them reset. I returned these and went to Eero

Easy install. Speed as advertised. A good choice.

The Wifi 6 system is outstanding. the range and quality is above average. Yes the price is extremely high, but you are definitely getting a high quality system that's well worth it.

My older (non WiFi 6) based system was beginning to crawl as I kept adding more IoT devices tot eh network. This new Netgear WiFi 6 system is great. Really good coverage and speed!

If running in AP mode and connecting to another router there is no distinction between the two networks if you want to firewall them. A simple vlan separating the two would be a simple solution but Netgear support has ignored all requests for this solution. Agree this is not a beginner configuration but many advanced users need mesh networks as home wiring is typically insufficient. I now need another satellite but instead I'll be selling this set and will buy another brand's "advanced" mesh router.

this system is great. super easy to setup and it works great. the 1 GIG internal network is fantastic! also love that it can support up to 500MB but for the time I am at 200MB. would highly recommend to anyone!

One word truly describes this router system: SPEED I've been using this router system for over 11 months now and it's been rock solid and SUPER speedy. I live in a 3000 square foot 2-story home, and there are absolutely no dead zones at all in my home. In fact, the coverage outside my home is also pretty good because I have a couple outdoor Nest cams that have no trouble connecting to my home WiFi. I also have a pretty good number of smart home devices and this route handles them all with ease. No hiccups or random disconnects at all since I starting using this Orbi system.

Set up is very straight forward. It takes a few mins stepping through the setup process and updating system. Phone app is simple enough to make the necessary changes. Browser access is simple and changes can be done on the fly through phone app or direct router access. I have been able to mantain consistent connection with no drop through the house and over fast connection through all devices.Highly recommend item.

I am so happy with my purchase. The Orbi AX6000 was very easy to get up and running on my Spectrum cable modem. We have a 2100 sq. ft house and a office located in a building about 50 behind our house. The internet wasn't stable out there so I needed something to help extend the range. Since installing Orbi, we have gotten rid of our cable boxes and stream cable to our televisions through the Spectrum app. We usually have 4 TVs streaming at once with computers and phones also connected to the internet. During the week day, we have 3 people on Zoom or Microsoft Teams at once. We no longer have unstable internet connections. A great purchase and worth the expense to our family.
