    Bought this to add to my ORBI system I bought in March. For items that will connect to it, it does well. The challenge becomes that things that should connect to it don't. I have laptops, TV's, etc. that are 15 feet away from it and still connect to the main router at a slower speed.

    Experienced data dropouts

    I’ve installed three of these Orbi systems and experienced data dropouts. I’ve read forums where this can be overcome by separating the 2Ghz and 5Ghz, and that task is not for the faint-hearted. My last install was for nightly data backup for two computers but the backups failed due to WiFi dropouts. I had to return the units for a refund

    The add on $$ is absurd!!

    Have been fairly happy with the base unit and two extenders for two months. However, now that I need more juice for another extender I find one unit is $250!!!???!!! Insane. Massively overpriced especially for people who have already bought into the family.

    I am only giving this a 1 because I could not get this to work on my current modem with Dish Satellite. Would have loved for it to work as I live in the boonies.
