    I bought the double and covers from my upstairs office to my finished basement. It's about 3000 sq ft. I always had bad spots in my basement and now no dead spots.

    I added an extra orbi, to cover a large church sanctuary. 3 is the maximum amount of orbi's, that can added to the initial hub. This has been a good solution so far.

    Works well in my 3000'+ sq ft house. Had a top of the line netgear router before this that didn't have the coverage that I needed. The orbi meets my expectations!

    Before this Orbi we were only able to get signal in half of our house. Now we can connect to the internet even in our backyard! Should gave done this years ago.

    Great Wifi...Bad Fiber Optic Support

    I bought this to replace my Centurylink Technicolor 2100T router. I have 950/950mpbs service with Centurylink but the Wifi on the Technicolor router was not cutting it. I installed this, and was able to configure the router for PPPoE login (required by Centurylink). However, I never reached wired speeds over 500 mpbs. I connected my old router up and did a wired test at 950mpbs. I connected the Orbi and only got 500mpbs. Here's how to fix it for gigabit fiber....The Orbi needs to run off the service providers router. Disable wifi on the Centurylink Router and run the Orbi in Access Point mode. It really sucks that you have to do this for a $350 router. But now I'm back to 950/950 speeds and I get the great Wifi that the Orbi provides. There's plenty of complaints about this issue in the Netgear community pages. That's how I found out how to fix it. I'm definitely not the only one experiencing these issues.

    The Orbi cured our dead spots. The coverage improved 250% and the signal strength is now at what we pay for. No buffering occurring and no signal lag.

    Orbi covers my entire house with no dropouts anywhere in the house. Orbi extends coverage outside over my entire lot with no outdoor satellite.

    My router is in the basement where the desktop used to be. Moved the desktop to main level where I have an extender but using wifi connection. We experienced issues with TV (Roku) and some zoom meetings on desktop. Measured data transfer, pushing and pulling about 25 mbps. Installed Orbi, immediately went to 60 mbps. Speed issues and the swirly circles of wasted time have left the building. I have internet service at my neighbor's front door approximately 200 feet away from satellite. Kind of pricey for my taste, but is functioning as advertised.

    I'm getting about 60% of my ethernet cable speed with the Orbi. This is better than my Netgear.com router and the Google and Samsung home wifi units I tried.

    After 3 tries I finally have a good WiFi signal over the entire house. The cheaper routers would not cover the whole house. Very pleased with the Orbi.

    My prior router, a Netgear Nighthawk worked great, though I needed to have an extender on the opposite side of the house's second floor. It worked great though though my devices often bounced back and forth between two IP addresses. So I bought this mesh router and have been extremely happy with the coverage. Even extends far enough into outdoor space that I can stream videos 150' towards the rear of my property. Easy set-up is a plus. Even the Orbi mobile app works great.
