Amazing Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Trevor82745
After moving into our new house it was quickly apparent we needed to upgrade our Wi-Fi system as I wouldn't get signal 10ft outside our house. Being the garage is 50ft away we needed something. After quickly installing the ORBI system we were receiving signal all over the backyard and in the garage with zero issues. Having the satellite in the garage is not ideal but it solved our problem with flying colors. Great product with great coverage.

Extremely happy with our Orbi
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Robert59369
We live on a 3 acre property in an area with poor cell phone coverage. Once we installed the Orbi system, not only did our internet signal become more reliable, but it now extends far enough across our property that we have access to the web while in our barn, greenhouse, and to the mail box. As the signal was so strong, we updated our cell phones to ones capable of WiFi calling and realized the double benefit of having a reliable phone....yay!!

Best wireless router I've ever used
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Benjamin34332
This router was easy to setup, and has been performing flawlessly since I installed it. It's fast, it's fully-featured, and the wifi coverage in my house is now at least twice as big as that using my old premium router.
The only thing I faced was that I couldn't use the app to set it up because the firmware had to be updated first. The firmware should be updated out of the factory, along with the instructions to use the app to set up the router.

Orbi review
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Michael40665
Super easy setup into my existing network. Have the satellite 40 feet on the outside wall and get excellent reception upstairs, downstairs and in garage. The built in circle parental control was easy to configure to block my most kid unfriendly sites. The router configured everything by itself once I plugged it in. Having the led glow colors for non or operational is a good thing for non techies and it is a very soft dim light that doesn't offend.

5 stars for performance
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: mickdc15444
I use wired backhaul, and I'll tell you it ain't pretty to get it working. Reboots are painful, don't always work and I've spent hours troubleshooting. Needless to say the firmware needs serious fixing in this regard. However, and this is a HUGE however, the wi-fi performance is absolutely phenomenal! If I could I'd give the coverage and speed 8 stars and a -3 for the pain of getting it to work. But once it's working, it's pure bliss.

Awesome system!!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: MelRo7238051
I live in a 2-story house that is about 3000 sq ft. I have purchased several other expensive routers and extenders, none of which provided adequate wi-fi coverage in the house. My internet connection is on the top floor on one end of the house. With just the Orbi Router and one Satellite (placed on the first floor in the middle of the house), I get awesome wi-fi reception all over the house (and outside by the pool!) :-) So happy with this purchase!

as good as advertised
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Jay45141
My 100-year old brick house isn't big, but the walls attenuate wifi like crazy. It took a little bit of tuning to optimize the location of the satellite, but now I have full service and great speeds everywhere--big change from needing to use LTE in the back half of my house.Setup was as easy as described and the app/software associated with the router has all the features I want.I intend to buy the same setup for my parents' house next time I visit.

Works Flawlessly
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: G.Daley95329
The coverage, speed and simplicity of the router system is amazing. Before purchasing this router I would constantly have dropped connection and slow data speeds that I would frequently check my connection. Since setting up my AC3000 I don't think about it any more, it just works. I get the same speed whether I'm connected to my router or in the other side of the house and on any of the 3 floors. Wish I had purchased it sooner...worth EVERY PENNY!
