    The Orbi has fixed all of our internet problems. I was surprised that the two towers was enough for my 4000 sq ft home, I thought for sure we would need another. The only part that I don’t much care for is the size, but worth it for the coverage my home has now.

    We need something that would cover a large home with brick through the home. All reviews stated great coverage and all were correct. We even get coverage all the way out to our pool in the back yard. Would recommend this to any. Setup was easy and flawless

    Works great, I researched a lot of solutions and settled on the Orbi. It performs as advertised and covers our 2700 sq ft home extremely well including a wireless outdoor camera. Setup is easy and allows advanced setup if the need arises.

    I’m pretty new to this mesh WiFi thing so I can’t comment on if this is the best, but I’m happy with my purchase. My old Apple airport express just wasn’t cutting it in my new (long) ranch house. I went to my local Best Buy with the intention of buying an extender, when an employee told me to consider the Orbi. I’m always skeptical when someone pushes a specific product so I quickly read some reviews on my phone. After learning that indeed “mesh” WiFi was the future,I decided to buy it and see what happens. Apparently an extender works by drastically reducing the speed of the WiFi. The setup is pretty simple. The two units quickly synced up and did provide full, strong WiFi to every corner of my house. Another bonus is that since the satellite is by my living room tv, I can hardwire it to the internet for an even better connection.

    I purchased the Orbi along with a NetGear Voice Modem... https://www.bestbuy.com/site/netgear-nighthawk-32-x-8-docsis-3-1-voice-cable-modem-voice-support-black/6319962.p?skuId=6319962 to replace all my comcast equipment that I was renting and the Orbi works great and was very east to setup.... less then 10 minutes and I was back online. I have the router part of the system upstairs in my office and one satellite downstairs about the center of my home. At the furthest part of my house I get DL speed of 651.20 and UL speed of 18.08 consistently and I check just about every day LOL... and at the price I got the Orbi I couldn't pass them up and was well worth it.

    Best router I ever used

    Didn't want to spend so much on a router but decided to go for it after my previous routers just couldn't keep a signal. My basement gets poor reception, but with the Orbi, my signal hasn't been so strong. Setup was simple and quick too. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of the price. Even though everything works as advertised, the high price range may not be something everyone can afford for strong internet connection.

    We just a new 2 story home and had our cable router downstairs and it was not carrying up to the bonus room. We went to Best Buy to research options and were recommended this unit. It is always testing over 200 on speed and we have no coverage flaws

    I visited the local Best Buy store to look for a new router and discuss the options with a Best Buy Associate (BBA). Received excellent advice from the BBA and she helped me make my selection. I purchased the Netgear Orbi AC3000 and I followed her recommendations for the set-up. Everything went perfectly except I could not get an internet signal from the modem to the Orbi. After several attempts of confirming connections and cycling on-off I removed the Orbi-supplied ethernet cable and replaced it with an old CAT V cable. Then the connection from the modem worked, seems that the new Orbi cable was bad. Our signal range with the Orbi is awesome. So far I am very satisfied with this purchase.

    Perfect wifi coverage throughout my house. Also nice having two coverage points which also means more room for ethernet plug ins. The only negative is that my TV didn't play nice and kept disconnecting, so now my TV is wired in.

    Threw away my Apple Time Capsule for extending wifi through out my house. It didn't provide adequate wifi throughout my house. My house is about 3800sqft. This product works great!!! Remember. you only need the two pack ( one router and one extender/satellite) for most purposes. you do not need the "three pack" ( one router and two satellites). In this age of Netflix and Amazon Video you need enough bandwidth to reach your Smart tv's to stream without interruption. This product totally fixed that problem. It is also the best of the best router/satilitie systems out there. do not buy the other ones!!!!! research it first if you wish but i already did it for you. Very easy set up!!

    I've purchase expensive routers before and none of them gave me a strong signal across the house. I tried extenders and they were very spotty and signal would fall off. This is the first time I've had full bars using the Orbi. Doesn't get 5 stars because it is pricey but it was worth it.

    Excellent whole home coverage including the patio and yard. Glad I waited a bit to upgrade to this new system. Very good quality. Easy setup as well. My previous router was a higher end Netgear also. 7 years of service! Stay with the brand that performs.

    My experience was totally as advertised, Setup was easier than any router I have ever setup before. 10 minutes from box to browsing. The satellite piece was a snap to connect. And the Wi-Fi coverage across our house is now strong and consistent. All good.

    I will start off saying I am not a computer geek. I researched wifi systems for about a month. I went to Best Buy almost daily to talk to anyone that could steer me in the rite direction. I read reviews on line for all systems. Even though pricey I ended up with the Orbi. Am I glad I did. We have a 2700 square foot new build with our modem in the far basement. Not bad enough that the modem is that far away but we have Time Warner as our provider. I hard wired the whole house with Ethernet cable. Cat5. Knowing how bad Time Warner is. Our wifi signal was horrible. Maybe 20 megs when we pay for 50. After installing Orbi. About 20-30 minutes. Very user friendly. Our speeds have not been lower than 62 and 6. Wow what a difference. I actually stream over wifi than use our Ethernet cables because it is a faster connection. I forgot your looking fir speed this is the way to go.
