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.

Returned 3 different WiFi modems to Best Buy because I just wasn’t getting good coverage- my last ditch effort was the orbi ac3000. Now this worked as advertised- easy set up great coverage thru out the house. Highly recommend

Great coverage. Love the fact that both Base and Satellite have a 4-port switch on them. Coming with Disney Circle is a plus.
Only downside: Management webpage is http:// NOT https:// which seems to be a Netgear thing.

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!

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 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!

We are a family of 6. The router is upstairs and I was having trouble with access to the internet downstairs due to having concrete walls. It has helped make the downstairs internet use so much better.

Worked as stated. Could instantly see a difference in area coverage and speed. We had been using a Motorola 3.0 surfboard combination modem/router. Only issue so far occurred during setup with Comcast. Comcast had to send a reset signal to get everything working.

After replacing a few years old google mesh system with another high end brand (and cost) I was very disappointed. Returned for this router and it’s night and day better. No drops and consistent fast speeds.

I’ll keep this short and sweet. I have fiber gigabit service but the ISP router has always been a joke, even with a MoCA extender. Prior to trying the Orbi AC3000, I tried expensive gaming routers from Asus, Linksys and Razer. I also tried the lower tier Linksys Velop nodes along with the new Velop router. Nothing could give us wifi speeds above 100-200 Mbps and frequent disconnects were the norm with the Linksys and Razer mesh systems. I didn’t have high hopes for the Orbi but decided to give it a try based on reviews. We now consistently get wifi speeds of 300+ Mbps. I realize that’s still far from gigabit but it’s way better than anything we’ve gotten up to this point. We also have not experienced a single disconnect in the month we’ve been using the Orbi. Netgear’s Orbi is the real deal.

Bought this to replace my NetGear Nighthawk. This is working great! My home is large, so we have excellent coverage now to all points and levels of the home. Also, with all the connected devices and home automation I am not losing any connectivity anymore.

Very easy to setup & use. Took about 15 minutes to get all devices back on Wi-Fi. Wired devices took a little extra time to determine appropriate IP address for manual setup. App is very handy to see what’s connected at any given time and using the Wi-Fi.

We needed to update our old router but wanted one with range without running cables up and across the entier house. This accomplished what was needed and the monitoring app was an added touch. It’s free and helps with added control of device management.

The system was fairly easy to set up and I am not an expert on this type of equipment. The reason for purchasing it was that my signal in the basement was weak. I moved the satellite into the basement and my system now performs much better.

Makes internet setup so easy. Set it up behind a FIOS router and get faster speeds then my poor fios router. For example, Fios router, typical up/down speeds about 100 whereas Orbi which is plugged into fios router is 350-450 down and 300-400 up!
