Terrible. Can't login into my own router due to the way Netgear makes you set up accounts. Returning it asap
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great product, install would have went better except for the human error: me. I should have let it do its updates before forcing it through the install. Once it got done updating the install was simple.
Replaced a WiFi 5 mesh system with the 2 node 770. Love the 2.5 gbps ports, the separate IOT network and that it can do wired backhaul. Even with the most current firmware, the wireless consistency is not as reliable as the older system. Super fast for sure but a bit flakey. Hopefully that will get better over time. The Orbi app is not great. Regularly shows items as on CAT5 that are not and the UI in the app changes without reason. Not sure if I was part of some flight/test but not a consistent experience.

Excellent for wifi 6E devices, wifi speed increased from ~850mb to almost 1,300 mb. Not quite as fast as my RBK850 for wifi 6 devices, losing 100mb of speed on my Apple TV's. But they (wifi 6) will soon be legacy devices. Occasionally gets confused and can't find other connected devices for airplay, necessitating a router reboot. I assume that will be corrected over time as the product was just released, and Netgear is good at remediation. Excellent way to get a jump on wifi7, at an affordable price.
I would recommend this to a friend!
