Great performance power over 150mbp in my home now!I have a family of 5 in my 2500 sq ft home with over 20 WiFi devices connected. After connecting Orbi system I haven’t had any lag, pause, or frozen issues when using it. Great product much needed upgrade.

My internet provider would only connect to my modem. I had to install the Orbi. I was surprised - it was easier than I thought. The directions were sufficient for me to install. I have fast internet (is there anything else worth it?) but I needed it in all areas of the house. So far, so good.

This was a huge upgrade over our older Netgear N600 which had not stopped working, but it was definitely showing its age and was becoming overloaded from all our smart devices. The Netgear Orbi AC3000 delivered clearly better performance and considerably superior range. We have not changed our ISP, and yet our internet speed has almost doubled. Previously our wireless devices would intermittently drop off over time and had trouble as we moved away from our router base. Now? We no longer have trouble inside our home, not to mention we even have range in our yard!

I read the reviews and did the homework and still remained skeptical before purchasing; however I was wrong.
I have a 4,100 sq ft home and placed the router on the top floor. I then proceeded to the basement to see if the satellite would even pick up a good enough signal for setup. I was shocked when the blue band lit up! Secondly, I was getting my bandwidth and then some.
I've been using the product for about a week and have over 10+ devices connected to our network and streaming constantly, since we're cord cutters, with no issues.
Simply put this works and was super simple to install!!!

Just like the title says. These are simple and they work great. They have pretty good range on their own but together the coverage is Great! The setup and app is super easy and quick. Only long part is just waiting for updates on the first startup. They work great. Haven’t had any issues. Netgear continues to be consistent at reliability.

Yes it's a bit pricey for a mesh system upgrade but well worth it!! I have a 200 year old 2 story home (plus basement) with very thick timber walls. I have the router set up in one corner of the first floor and the satellite on the opposite corner of the second floor and get full bars everywhere including the basement and most of the yards outside (even in my work shop). Very easy to set up and great that you don't have to switch between 2 and 5 GH networks. I pay for cox 150MB/s service and routinely get 300+ everywhere in my home with this (used with netgear cm1000 docsis 3.1 modem)

Setup was a breeze.. Coverage is great.. I am a techy and have both this and google wifi.. Orbi has more setup features if u are into manual configurations but is still very easy for the basic user.. Works very consistent.. Mesh routers eleminated all the hiccups that used to happen in a repeater setup ensuring amazing coverage and consistent connection throughout the house and still give the high speed performance you would expect from the other new complex odd looking high performance routers.. If you have a big house and want full coverage get a mesh wifi router without hesitation

Hands down this is one of the best networking products i've owned in my life. My internet speeds tripled after installing this in a 3 story townhome. Installation and setup was a breeze. Highly recommended if you have slow speeds in a multi level home .

The Netgear Orbi AC3000 has allowed for seamless wi fi to opposite ends of my home, and consistent streaming for my (3) Nest Camera and (2) Hello Doorbells. At any given time I may have as many as (37) wireless and IOT devices connected to either the router or satellite of this mesh router and it is flawless. It’s an easy installation and set up with the Orbi app available on your chosen iOS, Android, PC, or Mac platform.

I tried a Netgear standalone router, Google Home mesh and Samsung Mesh and the Orbi solved my problem. I get about 400 Mbps with an ethernet cable connected to fiber optic and 200-300 with wireless everywhere in a 2500 Sq ft 2 story house even though the base station is in the basement.

I had a Wi-Fi dead spot in a guest bedroom which I had tried unsuccessfully to correct with extenders. I placed this unit in the middle bedroom and it not only corrected the problem but gave better speed in all back areas. Also it set up very easily.

One of the easiest routers I have ever configured. I bought to solve the need to have Xbox one hard wired since it never seemed to reach the speed my internet subscription was for even with 90-95% signal strength, although my iPhone and laptop would. The satellite is tucked behind my TV and out of sight and with the 4 Ethernet cords, I was able to hardwire my TV, Xbox, and streaming box to it. I am now reaching double what my Xbox speed test was registering with wi-fi. I am completely satisfied with this purchase, and if the need ever arises to add another satellite, it will be a breeze.

This thing is screaming fast. I get speeds nearly as fast as I get on my LAN connected desktop. I'm getting the full speed my connection is rated at, even when connecting via the satellite. Usually extenders only connect at 1/2 speed, but this uses two channels to give you full speed no matter where you connect. Add in the fact that the mesh network means one network name and no worries about switching to a different node for best speed, and it's really easy too. Super fast, super simple. What more can you hope for in a wifi router?

Before I had gaps in wifi coverage in my home and especially on the 2nd floor. With the Netgear ORBI AC3000, I not only don't have any gaps in coverage but I have the same speed upstairs as downstairs. I now have over 100MB/S everywhere in my home.

I am currently using my Orbi in a 4050 square foot house. Previously I used a traditional router that, when purchased 5 years ago, was one of the best routers available. Within the past year I noticed that wifi coverage, particularly on the other side of the home, was spotty or not existent. An upgrade to newer technology became a must. I purchased this system after reading several good professional reviews online and at the recommendation of the Best Buy technician. After installation a month ago, I can say that my wifi coverage issues are resolved and the speeds are much improved. The only downside is the price as it is much more than most routers.

Easy to setup and glad I bought it. Before I set this up my 4k TV would keep pausing on YouTube TV and picture would go back and forth from 4k to lower quality. I did a speed test on my internet prior to this and the speed was only 30-40 mbps. After the easy setup it's at 240 mbps. I have the router in the den and the smart TV connected to the provided satellite portion of this. I 100% recommend this to anyone with dropped or sketchy internet.
