    The ease of instalation, simple connection to modern high speed networks,and it seems it goes a lot farther than advertised on range. And you can either cook eggs on it, or need a tin foil cap it gas so much power.

    Absolutely No Better than the Orbi 850

    Larger, less range, disconnects random devices, would not stay connected to my Enphase Solar array. Not worth the extra cost over the 850. Went back to the 850 with no issues.

    This router was worth the money to not have to pay my provider a monthly fee. It keeps me connected well without issues.

    I upgraded from a 6 year old Asus router and have been very happy with how reliable the Orbi has been since I put it into my home network. The wifi easily covers my 2800 sq ft home and the triband system keeps all my devices connected with very little interruption. I have not explored the more advanced features thus far, but plan to look more into the parental controls to protect my children. Will likely upgrade my system with a Orbi satellite unit in the near future!

    After a hiccup on my end by purchasing a incorrect satellite to the Orbi router the set up was fast, easy and the network has excellent connection.

    No way to separate 2.4 and 5 networks and seemingly no way in the GUI to adjust the switching between the 2. That combined with the 2.4 range being basically the same as the 5 (which shouldn't be), devices on the edge are constantly switching back and forth.

    I set up a login account and it wouldn’t remember my info. I had to reset it twice. Ended up returning it along with the same brand modem that couldn’t keep a connection with the router. Even my internet provider had access issues
