I had to switch to this router when I switched to ATT GIGABIT. Was using Airport and Airport Utility - these worked great but didn't have the speed. Orbi is fine with getting the signal across the house to the yard. My only problem is with the app. It is worthless for information or changing any settings. Netgear needs to spend some time on this piece of their offering.

Purchased this to replace an older system that was showing its age. I know have blazing WiFi speeds (200-300 MBPS) in all corners of a 4200 square foot home, basement too. Several echo and fire TV devices along with Samsung smartphones and it doesn't miss a beat. Really easy and simple to hook up as well.

These two Orbi's are terrific. Much better than a single point, and much better than the little mesh systems running around. Both very powerful and stretch my wifi further than i expected. Price is very competitive considering alternatives.

Have been using this for a month now.. I live in a larger house so the two routers really cover the area of the house and give way better coverage than the previous router.
My only thing against it is if you have very fast internet (up to 1000mbps) I feel as if this router does not give you the full use of those high speeds because of the router and satellite router.

I’ve read countless reviews on Orbi being a difficult setup... it’s definitely not. There’s an app for it, and it does everything for you. It even updates its own firmware. The signal strength is what I was going for, and so far it doesn’t disappoint. If you’re looking for whole house coverage, this is your system.

Easy setup, which was a big surprise because i am not the best Tech guy. This system drastically improved my home WiFi coverage for a 3000 sq ft home. I don't know what took me so long to purchase it. I now have full coverage throughout the home and i can easily stream in every room.

Product was easy to set up. Coverage seems to be good so far in my home. I have a 3500sf house and two seem to be fine. The only gripe I have had is that satellite needs a firmware update, but it would not load. I believe the new firmware update gives you the ability to set up a guest network. Currently I cannot do this. If that part was good, I would have given it 5 stars.

Orbi really helped with our Internet issues. We can now work our Arlo system without having to replace the batteries every month. We can also use our tablets and phones any place in our house.
It probably would rate 5 stars, but we have Windstream and it stinks, so Orbi needs to be a little more robust for Windstream customers. That being said, we still love Orbi.

We have a 3000 Ft Home and 3 Kids. Up to 50 connected devices (fire sticks, sonos, computers, TVs, game consoles, iPads, phones, nest....). 150/22 mbps one room away from satellite. Massive improvement from Asus N66u dark night router. Software not as customizable but that is not as important as bandwidth.

We just moved to the country side which means you have little to no service and only had 100 mpb. This wasn’t enough for our 3000 ft house so I purchase this and probably one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! It definitely worth the money!

Orbi works wonderfully! It extended my WiFi signal all the way back to my garage. It is a very good signal and fast. I highly recommend Orbi as an alternative to an internet providers extra modem or router and services charges. Very satisfied with my purchase.

The product works very well. Not quite as fast or expansive coverage as I was expecting, but by no means is it slow on a relative basis. I would recommend this for its simplicity and ease of set up. It is a little pricey compared to othe units in the market but if you don't want to spend a lot of time and frustration setting up your wireless access this is not a bad choice

I was very interested in these new wi-fi mesh system for my parents house. They have terrible coverage in the far end of their basement. The Netgear Orbi gave full, strong signal to this part of the house. These wi-fi mesh systems are the future. I would personally never buy a standard wireless router ever again.

This system is a little pricey but well worth the money. The salesman actually tried to talk me out of such a powerful machine but I wanted the best. This is it!!! Put one on each end of my ranch house and I have no more WI-FI problems. We can even use it outside in the yard now with the coverage this unit has. Awesome!!

Just bought it and it works. My old router didn’t extend to my room even tho it’s a few rooms away and it was about 20mbps even though I have purchased the 400 mbps. After I connected it and everything it went from 20mbps to 180+ mbps.

This is an excellent product to improve WiFi speed, my PC upstairs has been increased its download speed 3 times since this Orbi installed. The installation is easy, taking about 10 minutes by following the instruction or just viewing the videos at YouTube.

I bought this to replace my AirPort Extreme and Express. I needed better coverage for my home office. The Orbi delivers that. I have coverage in my entire 2500 Sqft townhome plus my courtyard. My only complaint was set-up. The satellite unit would not connect. I expected plug-and-play based on the description not 90 minutes of troubleshooting.
