Customer Ratings & Reviews

We upgraded to this mesh router from the previous Orbi 5 and it’s a huge improvement on range and speed. We have Hue, Alexa, Sonos, Ring products, TVs streaming, and gamers gaming. That congested the previous system. After upgrading to this orbi 6 mesh system, everything runs smoothly with high internet speeds. Highly recommended

Super Heavy Duty Product. I have 16+ smart devices at home that require internet connection. I never had a single drop in connection after installing this. This review is for AX-6000 2 PACK WiFi-6 Orbi router because sometime they'll use this to review other Netgear Products. You do get the best for your money. Great Coverage through entire home and even outdoors as well. I have 2500ft house and this things is like hot knife on a butter. I get connection in every single spot of the house. this product is the best if you have 600 mbps and up speed connection from your ISP. I HIGHLY Recommend this product. Money well invested in future proofing your home. The router and the satellite communicated with each other independently without using your bandwidth.

Very fast, long range is good, and two pack is enough to solve all of my Wi-Fi woes. Phone app works ok, could be faster. Otherwise, easy set up and making most of my high speed connection now.

Best wifi 6 mesh system. I was getting 800-900Mbps from my phone (Samsung Fold). Great range, easy app. -1 star for lack of parental controls. If you have a family, problem better to look at the Asus Zenwifi Mesh.

Very satisfied with this purchase. The purchase was over-kill for my use, but it's a very welcome upgrade. The router and satellite set-up was very easy; and the increase in network download speed now matches my FIOS plan. I have the FIOS Quantum Router on the 200Mbps plan, but even though Verizon speed tests showed the router download speed around 300Mpbs, my devices usually tests around 50Mbps regardless of how many devices were online. Whether my wireless device is 5 feet from the Quantum Router, or with wired ethernet, my devices only tested around 50Mbps. With the Orbi, the router download speed is still around 300Mbps, but my devices are now around 200Mbps regardless of how many devices are online, or how far I am from the router or satellite. Most importantly, unlike the Quantum router, I no longer have signal issues in my 3-story townhouse. I have the Orbi Router and 1st satellite (for wired devices) on the 1st floor, and the 2nd satellite on the 2nd floor. If I didn't require the wired connections, I'm confident the 2-pack would have covered my TH without any issues.

Super easy to set up. The app is very straightforward too and the range is fantastic

I replaced a single AX wifi 6 router, which was very fast, with this Orbi AX6000 3 node mesh system. The Orbi has great coverage area and has filled in all the weak areas in my home that I had with the prior single AP. The speed is great also. I get full 500mbps speed from most areas of my home. Grwat system overall but expensive.

Love, love, love this product. This mesh system replaced my ASUS ROG Rapture GT6 Tri-Band System and though a little more costly, is beyond worth it in my home. The setup was simple, the wifi connection in my home is steady and consistent (without drops) and the interface is easy to navigate and configure. I had numerous issues with the ASUS GT6 but replacing it with this is the best thing I could have done! I am satisfied with my purchase so far!

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.

What a great and easy to set up mesh system. Could not have been simpler and the wifi is lightning fast. No dead spots and no more extenders with different names.

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.

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.

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.

This product may be named RBK853 AX6000 or RBR850. I'm not sure. It has all three of those names but depending on where you look only one of them applies. Anyway, the satellites need a firmware update or they will not be recognized. I connected the satellite to the router using a CAT 5 cable, then with my laptop connected wirelessly to the router, I entered the admin interface by accessing my browser and hitting its IP address on my local network. The DHCP of the satellite is shown in an advanced tab. If I go through the detailed Network activity logs of the router and find that DHCP address, I can get the IP address of the satellite. From there it’s simple. I find the support page for this device on netgear.com using one of those product names, and find the firmware file to download to my PC. I can then connect to the satellite, once have I googled the default password for the satellite (not the same as for your router). Then I can upload the firmware manually and apply it then reboot the satellite. Easy! Honestly this a a fine consumer product that any family can use and these steps are totally obvious to anyone of any technical skill level.

Very fast and very easy to setup. Just plug and play.

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

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.

Really powerful WiFi! Easy setup, connectivity and updates. Like the “guest “ WiFi so you don’t have to share your secure password.

You want great coverage and this set is just what you need. The newer set is out but I've had this since they came out and it been amazing.
