    Replaced a string of Apple Airport Extremes with Orbi. Orbi handles the hand off between satellites much better, and they can be placed anywhere. Easily getting the max out of my FIOS connection now.

    Almost Perfect

    I spent a good deal of time reading up on different mesh systems and almost settled on Google's. There is one feature that swayed me to go with Netgear; the dedicated band between the satellites. Almost all the others piggy back on the same waves as the network traffic so you can imagine the real-world use would no-doubt cause some additional congestion. I'm going to get the one negative out of the way that has dropped a star for me - when I lose power the satellite doesn't always sync back with master and I've even had to do a factory reset to get them talking to each other again. I'm in an apartment complex so maybe there is too much noise; although, this has been a recent issue. I would definitely buy these again and highly recommend them!! They were easy to setup and I was up'n'run'n in a few minutes.

    When I set this up in a large auditorium I had a little trouble with some interference from another router, but once I set it up on my home the mesh seems to be almost perfect in every room of the house.

    Still not sure I like these. They work ok and give good range. However, the app and the system itself is not very intuitive. Think the first chance I get I will switch out.

    Orbi does what advertises. It was easy to set up and has worked well since day 1. The router is in our basement and the satellite is on the main level. This provides good coverage to all 3 floors in our home.

    Simple and effective for the entire home. I have home office on the other side of my home where the last wifi router was. Installing Orbi satisfied all of my upload and download connections issues.

    I was really annoyed with the constant drops on the wifi in my house so I did a little bit of research and found the this unit will provide me with the coverage I needed, is a great unit but it could have a little more features.

    Orbi is great! I live in a 5400’ house with a cinder clock basement. The basement was always a dead zone until Orbi! Now every square inch of the home has excellent coverage

    Very Solid Choice, Even in 2020

    This was the perfect option for me. I have a PC that needs to be hardwired into the router to work well with the internet. Playing games with friends require s a good connection, and this worked well. With having the third band dedicated to communication, the satellite connection to my pc is lightning fast, like I was plugged right into my ISP router modem. For being a few years old, this is still great. Highly recommended, despite the slightly high price tag.

    Good coverage but on some websites get a prompt the user name and password when there is none I won’t let you go to the site. No explanation from net gear. I have to switch to regular Wi-Fi to get the site.

    Customer Support from Netgear. Even for set up issues they want you to use a service you pay for or peer support pages. Other than that, set up was simple and the range was exactly what was needed for our 3000 sg ft house and yard.
