    Setup wasn't the easiest. I am pretty technical savvy and it took more than 5 attempts to make connection a success.

    We thought it'd be slightly stronger that it was. The most we're getting on speeds are about 30mbs. Not as helpful as we'd have wanted.

    Bad investment

    So I had high hopes for this mesh system. The Best Buy associate convinced me to buy a mesh system rather than an extender and I experienced issues from day one. I was told that I shouldn’t see the type of slow connection and dropped signals so I returned it only to see the same issues. The satellite rarely connects and so the back side of my house receives no signal.

    I had the Orbi for a few weeks now and works alright. But, it as a mind of it own and wants to connect to my 5G without permission.

    I thought this was a solution for my WiFi problem but after a painful install process the extender was always dropping out. Took it back and got the Linksky MR8300. Later I found an extender module on sale and it blended right in like butter, been working at excellent speeds since day one!

    I wish Apple still made Wi-Fi routers! The Apple router I had to replace could not go up to 200 mps, so I had to replace it and this was what I choose. I did my research and this came highly recommended. It works fairly well, but it looses signal sometimes. I have also noticed sometimes the speed slows down. maybe I made the wrong choice, only time will tell.

    This is the worst purchase I have ever made! after listening and taking advice from a Best Buy employee, which I should know better since they have no business working in tech unless they are geek squad. I will dumb this down and make it Plain and simple if you stream on multiple TVs, game, have a peloton or exercise equipment hooked up, have phones, iPads, and computers and you dont live in a shed Avoid this like Coronavirus. so again if you were born after 1980 and enjoy life and have 5 technological advanced products stay away. It just can’t handle more than 5 things and the issues with the extender dropping signal every 30 mins. The second I plug in a better router I’m beating this trash with a sledge hammer and throwing it into the ocean. Thank you
