Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have had a few mesh type Wi-Fi setups over the past couple of years, but the Orbi stands tall among them. The performance and sing along strength in our new home is now outstanding with no drops or dead spots. I would highly recommend

We had many wifi problems in our house before purchasing this. We constantly were dropping wifi in certain areas of the house. Because I was not sure that a standard wifi router could cover the whole house I wanted to get a mesh solution to reach to every area. My house also had a significant number of rooms and devices that were wired. This is one area where orbi had a big advantage over competitors. Most other mesh networks have only two LAN ports per device, but orbi has four. This allowed me to dedicate one port to the Ethernet throughout the house using switches anywhere I needed to branch. Other ethernets ports were used for devices local to the office. I think Orbi is the best mesh option available today and CNET agrees. It has the fastest wifi speeds of all of them and the tri band set up ensures speed isn't lost from the satellite unit. Highly recommended.

This product is huge upgrade from nighthawk. Good coverage and full bars around 2300 square ft home. Also I have 400 gb internet speed, always have 420-480 no matter how many devices at same time

I needed to upgrade wifi for coverage in our 5,000 SqFt residence (3 floors). It doesn't help with all the electronics we have (4 smart phones, a Firestick, Ring doorbell, Arlo camera system and my son's Xbox+PlayStation). The BestBuy employees said the Orbi system with 2 satellites would be over kill. He was right. The system was easy to set up and works flawlessly. My son says there is no more lag when he's playing video games or when he streams movies. The system covers the whole house including the basement where his gaming systems are set up. The Orbi system was not cheap but now I don't need to hear from my 17 year old daughter or my 14 year old son that the wifi in our house stinks..... Bestbuy also offered to send someone out at no cost to see if my placement of the router was in the best location.

Switching from non mesh hear I read a lot of reviews prior to deciding on the rbk50. It's a little big and the software is a bit limited after using ddwrt for a while. You should download Netgear Genie app if you like to see more configuration items. Overall strong buy.

Works great but had to figure out how to make it compatible with Verizon router. Spent a lot of time on phone with customer service but was fixed and now powers wifi to over 4,000 sq feet and about 6 devices at a time.

This is my secound Orbi router. Bought one for my self, and one for my father. So Far so Good!

Excellent. The functionality is great and the set up very easy. A+++++ The price is perfect at $175. A lot of value for the money.

Replaced an ASUS mesh system and am absolutely impressed with the Orbi system. Super simple setup and wonderful coverage. Looks very appealing in the house. Doesn’t look like a hi tech piece of lab equipment.

These devices have given me a strong signal all over the house. I dont have to worry about losing my connection to wi-fi anymore. Their GUI for the devices are lacking when compared to the other products. I would say its clunky at best. Hopefully with revisions it will continue to improve.

Setup of this system was very easy. The system seems to be working wonderfully. I run many wifi connections in my home; firesticks, smart tv's, laptops, phones and tablets. Everything connects fine and I've had no timeout issues nor streaming delays

We have this installed and it’s working great. We also purchased an outdoor Orbi satellite and it all works great together. Now we have Wifi on our farm in two houses and in our large metal building.

It extended the WiFi throughout my whole house and everything works great

Fantastic reviews various online sites, but Orbi community expressed problems with connectivity after firmware updates. I have had no problems in two weeks and up and down speeds and area coverage outpaced everything else even with plaster walls.

Works perfectly I now have wifi all over my house!!!!! Good price point easy to hook up speeds are quick can stream on multiple devices at same time w no lag

This product is just amazing. We had several internet problems in our house and the provider couldn't resolve the issue even though they tried they own brand extenders. We have had to restart many times the router, turn of our devices and so... After research we decided to buy the Orbi Mesh WiFi. As soon as we set up (super easy) we noticed the difference. The device is able to fill a large home with high-speed Wi-Fi and has more range and power than any other router we have tried. The result: no more internet connectivity issues. It is quite expensive but totally worth. We strongly recommend this device if you are experiencing internet problems / weak signal or even slow speed connection.

Having given up on a competing system, I decided to give Orbi a try and the system works as advertised. I now have whole home Wi-Fi coverage and can't be happier and the video gamers in the family thank you too!

For a system that came out six years ago it holds up well even though the technology is not as fast as the latest available. Netgear has taken the time to really make their App experience very pleasant. I do wish their add-on’s were either included or severely reduced in cost as I would more than likely use them if that were the case. However, so far in my first weeks experience I am enjoying the hardware and software. If it starts to degrade or become worse I will update my review(or post a new one if I am unable to update my original post).

Before purchasing this mesh router, I was very skeptical of if this would actually improve my speeds. I was shocked about how great this product worked. I went from 400MPS to 700MPS just over WiFi, couldn’t recommend more.

If you haven’t moved to a mesh network for your home you should. The coverage and strength are fantastic. I love the fact you can plug in items to a satellite for example, I have a VOIP phone plugged in and it works great
