Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy setup, great range, fast internet! This is how wi-fi in the home should be.

Orbi was easy to setup and works great throughout the extended area.

This system gives me 5 bars all over the house and outside as well. The only problems are you can't manually determine which frequency to use (2.4 vs. 5). Also, if you sync something to the router first and then move it to the satellite area - it won't switch to the satellite - it'll stay synced to the route - farther away and I run into some issues with speed. To me those should be easy fixes - just hoping for an update.

Easy..............................................

Best WiFi router I’ve owned so far. Easy to use and fast

I have a 4000ish sq. ft. home (ranch) and having one set up on the main floor and one in the basement has given me great speeds throughout t he house as well as outside! I have particularly thick walls and some sides are thick cement and this guy still manages to push through with great signal strength and speeds. Definitely recommended and I have no regrets!

Speeds are excellent no interruptions and I have 16 devices through out the house

These are perfect, install was easy. I have the main one in my basement and the second one upstairs in my living room. I love that it has multiple Ethernet ports. Really fast. So good I got one for my brother for Xmas

I believe the Netgear Orbi AC 3000 is an excellent product. Although I have not owned it for long, I fully expect it will fully bring me satisfaction.

I have looked at a couple of mesh WiFi systems before choosing the Netgear Orbi. Here are my decision criteria: good brandname, dedicated channel between base station and satellite, 3 Ethernet ports on each base station and satellite. Installation was simple, the app works fine on iOS, and the data throughput is stable high. Couple of weeks in I had not had a single dropout.

Had issue with setting up router. I have Rise Broadband that does not use a modem. After 4 hours on the phone with Netgear and Rise. Do not set the MAC address to what’s on the bottom of the router, have it set what your Orbi is defaulting to in the browser settings. And try not to set up the Orbi from the app. Once everything was set up on both ends, it runs great.

If you want quick internet access, reliable service and easy installation, I would recommend the Orbi whole home system. My home is 4,000 sq feet and all on one level. I used to have multiple access points, each with a different name, Going from one part of the house to another was a pain. Now, it just plain simple. We have excellent coverage and no area where coverage is a problem,

Orbi wifi and extender give strong signal over a large area with no loss of speed

I have always been a Netgear person...and for the longest was using a N Gigbit router...When I upgraded my internet to use fiber, I wasn't ready to update my router since my current is still functional. But now with the Orbi, I am getting my money's worth pushing the full speed of what my fiber 1G up and down.

Super easy to set up and reaches everywhere we needed it to. Even have better access when mowing the yard!

It was not quite plug and play but after about an hour I was up and running. I bought this to have wi-fi in a remote bldg. main unit in the house. The second unit I put in another bldg about 50’ away. This gave me the reach to have wi-fi in my workshop which is another 150’ away. Seems to have plenty of power to run all my TV options.

This has been on of my better purchases over the last few years. The 2 pack Orbi give me exceptional coverage over my entire property, as well as on my neighbors property too, which works well because we have family next door and I can stay on my network. Easy setup and have not had any issues over the last 8 months of owning this. Highly recommended!!!

We needed to upgrade our wifi for working from home. Geek Squad helped put together the mesh network, shipped us the pieces, and helped install the system via phone conference. It's all working just as hoped. Once again, Geek Squad and Best Buy reinforce why they are my go-to electronics -- gear and support.

I had a little bit of an issue getting the satellite to connect, but other then that, this router and WiFi device fixed all my home networking issues.

I have a large home and have trouble getting a good wi fi signal in some areas. Orbi works great. We are getting great wi fi in all areas of our home
