    This system works great in our home. Recently moved into a 5000 sf house and even in the separated garages it still works great.

    Pack good performance and coverage, wifi 6 makes it future proof device. Make sure to update to the latest firmware.

    Amazing WiFi coverage, easy setup, only complaint is that there is a bug in the firmware that causes it to randomly stop broadcasting. I have gone through all the troubleshooting steps and it doesn't help. WiFi will cut out for about 10 minutes every few days, if not every day.

    Much faster than my old system but honestly didnt see the numbers from some of the reviews. I have 1 gb hardwired connection and saw around 300-400 mbps when right next to the router. Old system started working again so I returned this one and don't notice much of a difference.

    Have been waiting a month for a firmware fix that resolves many of the issue with this product. Shame on Netgear for rushing the product to market when it clearly was not ready. Something as simple as being able to provide useful names to the 50 + devices connected to the router has yet to be resolved. I know any product goes thru firmware refinements as it matures but the large number of issues with this could have been identified by anyone who bothered to turn one on and certainly should have been fixed before product release. Also if you need a 2nd satellite you may be out of luck as I was told by support personnel there are no plans to add support for additional expansion. Seems very strange as most mesh systems support multiple satellites.

    I purchased this Wifi6 router to replace an older Linksys mesh network. Initial set up was easy and I was up and running within an hour. Immediately I noticed much better Wifi performance and coverage than the older Linksys system despite only using two nodes on the Netgear versus three on the Linksys. Everything was good for a day or two, but then the problems started. The router kept losing internet connectivity. The solution to this was I had to reboot both the router and my cable modem. This would fix things but then within 24 hours another reboot was needed. I contacted Netgear support and we changed some settings but this ended up making things worse. I called back a few days later and we did a full factory reset and updated to new firmware. That seemed to have helped for a few days but then the problem returned and I'm back to daily resets. I went ahead and ordered ASUS's Wifi6 system and will set this up tonight. If it works better, then the Netgear Orbi will go back to Best Buy.

    Unable to get many devices to work with this. Nest thermostat will not work. Also google cameras periodically do not work with this. Unable to figure out how to disable the security "armor" that comes on it. If you do home automation this is NOT your out of the box working product.
