Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nighthawk r7000 paired with Netgear AC1900-WiFi Range Extender Model: EX6400. Was actually crippling my Wi-Fi speeds at home. So I replaced it all with Orbi rbk 50 and haven't heard anyone at home complain yet. Note Orbi does not allow separate SSID for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

After having some glitches with my Netgear nighthawk and access point I decided to change to the Orbi. I was under the impression that this system would solve the problems I was having with my Wi-Fi coverage. I was losing signal depending on where I was on in my house. The Orbi 12 claimed that it would eliminate all these issues. It took many hours on the phone with technical support to work out the bugs. All my nest products would drop off line and send me alerts many times a day. Although my iPhone 7 seem to be working well two iPhone 6s still constantly lose wi-fi connection. After many hours of working with Netgear tech-support who by the way were very helpful we got the nest products to all work nicely But I still have issues with the iPhone 6s. The range of coverage with router and satellite seem to be pretty good. I'm still not sure if the investment changing from the Nighthawk to the Orbi was worth it. I also wish I was able to set up a guest network on this system like I had on my nighthawk. I might be able to recommend this product in the future but I'm just not sure yet.

Purchased for daughters two-story house as current Wifi had lots of dead zones but after purchasing and installing the Orbi, coverage was awesome!! I have same item installed at home in Florida and they live here in Vacaville !!

Fantastic range, great software and app! The first router(s) to actually be able to cover the whole property, not just 80% of the house. Couldn’t be happier!

After a major lightning strike, we needed a new router. Decided to try a mesh system. It was completely fast and easy to set up, even foe neophytes!

Can't say enough about how easy this product is to setup and use; after struggling with other wi-fi systems, this one is a dream! Sorry it took so long to find it, but good salesman friend at Best Buy pointed me to it

I told the guy at Best Buy I was having internet connection issues I my house and he recommended the Orbi I was a little skeptical but I tried it. Wow! TV’s, cameras, tablets and phones all connected. That was a year ago and I’m still going strong.

I've had many wireless routers in the past but by far, these are the best I've used.. and I've even had some high end gaming routers. The mesh routing system works awesome!!! I had an issue with my wifi reaching beyond the walls of my house to make sure I'm getting signal to my wireless surveillance cameras and this does the trick. no issues at all and can reach slightly beyond the perimeters of my house. This allows me to still get wifi on my phone as well and can run my mp3's without an issue. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for this type of system for sure.... and also to add, the signal strength is not only strong, but its super fast. I get such a fast speed on wifi, its like being plugged directly in!

My ISP's equipment was working better than anything I had & I even purchased a Netgear Nighthawk X4 a few years back & it did not cover as much area as my ISP's equipment, but a few years later I would have a lot of issues! I recently purchased a nest outdoor camera, which I love, but my router signal did not reach the outside corner of my garage, so I bought a range extender, which I regret, but that's a different review. My ISP's router started to drop out & not give the speeds I was paying for (300/20), so after 5 visits from my ISP they recommended I get my own equipment! So, I did some research & decided to try the Orbi with the satellite. I am extremely glad that I did! The coverage in my home (3,400 sq ft) is excellent! I even plugged a cat 5 into my satellite & got full speeds both down & up! Setup was really easy as well. If you're in the market for a mesh network or even a stand alone router give the Orbi a try!

I was looking to replace my Verizon router and after doing some research this was the best bang for the money. The Orbi app is easy to use and you can access your router remotely. I stream everything so I need fast reliable internet.

The ORBI does a great job. I have a number of devices. I had even more when family visited. There is no issue with capacity, strength or range. It did take me a bit of time to work on getting some legacy 2.4GHZ devices up and running, but they did work.

I did lots of research on how to improve the wifi in our 1940 brick 3-story house. Orbi is the answer. With one unit is on the main floor and one in the basement where the tv is, I get great coverage, including on the top floor and into the yard. A snap to set up too.

Purchased this Orbi system to get the Wi-Fi extended through the house. HD movies now play in a room where they once would freeze. My son says his PS4 no longer buffers or freezes during the game. This is very easy to setup and was working in a few minutes out of the box.

Best router I've ever owned. Have 3 level home and over 4200 sq. ft. home. The main router unit is located on the top floor and the satellite unit is located on the main level. Reception in the basement runs at approximately 90%. Excellent coverage. Please buy this unit!

I don’t have a huge house, but for some reason I’ve always had issues with normal routers. This system has been amazing. And I use the satellite Ethernet ports to run all of my game consoles, they are just as fast as if they were hard wired.

Worked as good as all the reviews said it would. It worked so well I have a large home and find no dead spots, even in the far corners. I added one more unit, and it totally covers the outdoors and the garage. it's fantastic!!! would highly recommend.

I am new to the mesh router game, but love that my devices don’t have to jump from 2.4 to 5GHz bands and the problems that can cause of devices are not seen as being on the same network. Coverage is great and the whole family is happy.

The Orbi has completely eliminated our connection issues with just using the enhanced gateway router provided by our fiber optic service. We have a perfect connection all the way to the edges of our backyard and beyond.

I am so happy with my new router, easy to install after you follow step by step, I suggest 400 mbps or more with internet service. I always have to many devices connected and is running smooth and fast.

I bought it to try and take advantage of the higher speed. I also enjoyed the 2nd hub having multiple Ethernet connections to hardwire several devices to it.
