Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've used a dozen different routers and repeaters over the years, recently having purchased a Netgear Nighthawk. I was pretty happy with that, but the repeater I needed to get the signal across the house left something to be desired. Long story short? The Orbi is a phenomenal replacement. Setup is fairly simple, the signal is great, and I'm convinced the third band as a dedicated backhaul helps tremendously. The features on the router aren't quite up to the same level as the nighthawk, but for all but fairly dedicated network tinkerers, it's very easy to overlook.

Powerful signal and speed. Better than expected. Covers three story house I have 1 satilite system and use iPhone Netgear Orbi app outstanding

I got the main hub and a satelite and I added another and have great coverage over the whole house and it performs well.

A few years ago I purchased this router for myself thanks to a buddy who told me about it. I noticed right away that I was getting high speed Internet speed throughout my home and outside too. When I visit my parents I noticed they were experiencing what I used to with the slower Internet speeds away from the modem. I bought this for them as a Christmas gift and now they have fast Internet speed throughout the house and outside. This is a must have and you will love it.

Pretty good for the cost but new technologies are much better bi needed to replace my old one snd these worked a treat

This has tremendously improved my Wi-Fi speed throughout my house, having the second box maintains consistent connectivity in all of the rooms.

The Orbi RBK50 has been flawless for the month I have owned it. It was extremely easy to set up, and with one satellite, I have coverage over my entire 3,300 square foot home. One of my favorite features is only having one network name and letting the Orbi manage the rest. Other than that, it has been reliable and so far there has been zero issues with network speed (200mbps down, 10mbps up). I wish I switched sooner.

Stream at ease with this setup in two different rooms!

Great product. I had spotty and slow Wi-Fi throughout my house even though I was paying for faster internet. With the Orbi, I now have the top speed I am paying for all the time and and I have it throughout my house. There were rooms where my Wi-FI was barely reaching and had super slow speeds. Now they all have the same top speed. I am much happier now that my famiy isn't complaining to me about the Wi-Fi being slow - and I make less calls to Spectrum (internet provider) complaining about Wi-Fi issues, so has saved me time as well.

This wifi system provides excellent coverage for my entire house. I plan on adding another satellite to cover my barn. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Orbi is amazing does just as it says it will and covers my 7000 sq ft house with just 2. I'm very impressed with the ease of setup and how well it worls

Easy to setup, strong signal and I have WiFi to my shop now. It’s a solid concrete shop and it connects 30 feet to my house without s problem.

I'm not sure if the Orbi is due for a hardware refresh, but the current WIFI setup that I have just was not doing the job. I went into Best Buy thinking it was either the Orbi or the Velop. I did a lot of research, and both get great reviews, but I decided on the Orbi. Setup was easy enough with the app, so I have no complaints there. I have 100% resolved my issues with poor WIFI thru out my house. I do have to admit though, I purchased an additional satellite for the system, but think it's really because of my house layout.

Easy set up. Wi-Fi works in my out building which is about 50 yards away. Plus it isn’t an eyesore.

Easy set up very powerful hadnt had a buffer so far for an older version works well

This product has allowed us to have more products connected to our Wi-Fi without having to deal with buffering. We stream our TV to five TVs in the house and have several laptops and handheld devices as well. Zero issues and easy to set up!

I had a hodge-podge wi-fi system to cover my 4400 sq ft home. My router is in a bedroom closet in one corner of the house. While I was able to get complete coverage, my speeds were very erratic. The Orbi system works great. Great speeds, great coverage. There are no dead spots in my house now. However, one advantage that I have that may not pertain to you is my house is wired for ethernet, so I wasn't limited to place in the base unit next to the router/modem.

First let me say I bought this thinking it was a mesh router system. Cause that's what everyone online says but it's not a mesh but hands down this is the best router system I have ever owned. I'm an I.T. Professional and have been using 3 apple AirPort Extremes and 1 time capsule to do the job this 2 piece router and satellite setup accomplished with no issues. I even get range well past my backyard and up the block. My only issues are that its not a mesh but the power it delivers it doesn't matter. The app doesn't give you ¼ of the routers capabilities.

I see a little loss of signal going upstairs, but still very serviceable. speeds are as they should be, so far, so good. To enhance the system, I may purchase another satellite.

Product works great for having WiFi all over my home. Easy setup. Would definitely purchase again
