    Seriously, until you've used something like the Orbi system, you just have not had proper Wifi in your house. Now it's blanketed everywhere! No worries, no concerns at any corner.

    Have been searching for a way to serve adequate wifi throughout my signal-eating row home (~2000 sqft). So far, this appears to have done the trick. I now have a solid 2.4GHz and 5GHz signals throughout the house, including on the porch and deck for Nest Outdoor Cams. The firmware continues to improve. One slight issue I've had is with obtaining an IP address from my cable modem. Other routers I have owned handshake with the router almost immediately. The Orbi takes a much longer time (1-2 minutes).

    Great Router ! We have 2 PS4's, XBOX ONE and PC hooked up in separate game room everything runs smooth even with multiplayer games. Hooked up to TV and projector in living room both can stream UHD content with no issues. Super easy set up -costs a little more than Google wi-fi but hey... Google WI-FI has been out of stock forever right haha. Google Wi-FI might be a better value but Orbi seems be be a better router...and you can buy it today

    I upgraded to this from my previous apple router. The base station just wasn't cutting it and didn't reach to all areas of the house. I have had this mesh system set up for roughly a month and have already fallen in love. Between the 2, I have coverage all over the house (roughly 2,300 sq ft) and run multiple devices off them at once. They have no problem keeping up and providing excellent download/upload speed.

    Bought this to replace my Arris Surfboard SVG2482AC Modem/WiFi combo. The response time with these Orbi’s is MUCH faster! We have 5200sq ft, and these 2 units totally cover the home without issue. Previously, with the Surfboard, the receiver in my theatre would drop Pandora frequently... not the case with the Orbi. Also had some dead spots with the Arris... Love these Orbi’s!

    I upgraded to the mesh wifi system after moving into my new home. This thing gives me full 100% signal strength and full speed on all 3 floors of the home. Well worth the price.

    I bought this Orbi system for my son, who is working from home during the pandemic and who needs to have a quick and responsive internet connection. He said that it probably triples the speed of his previous connection, and he also said that he thinks that this may be the best purchase made, overall, in terms of all purchases of technical equipment to date.

    I initially was going to get the Google Wifi, but they were new and sold out at every Best Buy I checked. My current wireless router died, so I did some reviews of various mesh routers because my old system left dead spots in the house. Even though the Orbi cost more than the Google, the 2 devices easily covered the whole house. No more dead spots or weak signals, no more Netflix or Vudu 'buffering'. The whole family is much happier now!

    Easy install and strong so far reliable service. We went from a Netgear n router with an extension upstairs to the Orbi and we are very happy so far. 3700 sq. Ft. One unit in the downstairs front office and one near the back window of the upstairs game room and we have good signals from the front yard/ patio to the back of the pool. We are on mac and have no noticeable issues. iPads, iPhones, iMac, MacBook, and Apple TV all work evenly.

    Great if youre hardwired but if youre far from the home base router, sometimes the connection drops. I have the app and it says the router upstairs has good connection but it really doesnt. Ive tried moving it and nothing. Also all the devices connect to main router and theres no way to move devices around
