Customer Ratings & Reviews

love how easy this was to setup and speed doubled over my previous AC1750 router!!

This router has been great and have had no issue, speeds are fast and have been pretty reliable, only problems I have are with the app, so hopefully netgear can fix them, the price is a bit much but this will works

Easy to set-up and coverage can be expanded easily.

Orbi router was an upgrade from a Netgear router that was several years old and kept loosing the internet connection. Set up was easy and the single Orbi router covers our entire house (approx 2,000 sq ft) and reaches to the backyard. We have also started streaming on Netflix on our tv and have had no issues.

Don't buy it now! It's still a major, major work in progress. The people at Best Buy don't know how badly this item is configured. It's not their fault, they are reiterating what they are told via web training. It drops multiple times per day, is highly unstable and buffers even when hardwired to a device like a Roku. I solely stream at my house and this product has been a major disappointment especially at the $350 price tag.

Setup was ok. Some syncing problems. This router is faster than my Apple time capsule but does not quite reach the speeds it is touted to. I am paying for Spectrum's higher speed rate 300Mbps. I am measuring on OOKLA Speedtest at 70 to 170Mbps at download speed depending on the browser and time of day. (Could Spectrum be part of the problem?) I understand range and and the wireless drop off which brings up another point, the range is not 2500 ft. I have to use 2 routers to get coverage in my house which is 2000 sq feet. Nice, if you want to speed up your system but there might be cheaper and/or even better alternatives.

Set up was easy. The unit looks stylish so I don't want to hide it. Still have some slow moments from my room but this is the farthest distance from the unit. Plus there are several walls between. Overall, I get signal in my room where before I wasn't able to go more than 8 feet from my previous router. I still believe the problem was because I upgraded my laptop to Windows 10. Right afterwards I was unable to get wifi on it unless I was withing 5 feet of the router. But my cell, my daughter's laptop and any other wifi enabled units worked fine everywhere in the house.

I had major wifi issues in my house. I was right on the edge for the 2K square foot and didn't know if I needed a repeater, but I didn't. This thing has solved my toughest wifi problems in a house with plaster walls and metal mesh in the wall as well. Buy it!!

The Netgear Orbi WiFi router streams movies to my apple TV without buffering and supports other internet activities (such as web surfing, gaming, you tube) at the same time. Great for a home with multiple connected devices.

Bought this for friend to enhance the speed of her internet. She lives in the country one provider slow speed. Orbi not only extended internet by 2000 feet but also increase speed. Awesome.

I bought this to replace an Apple AirPort Extreme. The Apple device was reliable but I was having problems with drop outs on my backyard Netatmo Weather Station. The Orbi solved the range problem.

I needed faster WiFi for multiple users in household. Checked various models at best Buy using "compare" then picked Orbi. It was easy to setup and all household devices performed much faster.

I was having a lot of trouble getting my wifi to the front part of the house I try everything out there and nothing work till I got the ORBI omg the best WIFI I love that you ORBI......

Overall strength and speed is better with multiple users than with older router

I've been keep getting weird error messages with my centurylink wifi modem and after installing it the speed and the errors - no problems at all. Thank you netgear. Go for ORBI.

This has good WiFi coverage out to the edges of our yard, it is complicated though.

So I have gone through just about all the latest networking devices...google, eero, Velop, and the latest Linksys router. I was weary about the Orbi just because of the size but since it is hidden from plain sight I finally decided to give it a try. I prefer it over the Velop mostly due to more control over the system. The app is for setup only and everything else is done through the web interface. Performance is just as good or better than the Velop. I will be sticking with this one.

Super great product. With this I hardly ever have to restart at supplies my whole house with constant 200 or more megs per second so I love it and it's expandable

great speed but, somehow it will disconnect from internet for no reason.

Easy plug and play hook up. Very fast and has an exceptional range.
