Fantastic Mesh Router System!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Liam82665
I am 75 years old,(hate to admit that!) I had no problems downloading the app and got it up and running in no time! I did have a bit of a problem when I called to register the kit because someone had apparently tried using my email to register their equipment, ( this could have been put into their system by someone mis-typing or something else however,) All is fine after we sorted that problem and I am up and running, 100% better than with my older apple router!

Orbi review
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Chris7413
It was easy to setup. I have the router located in great room in center of house. I have one satellite upstairs in master bedroom on one wing of the house. I have the other satellite in the downstairs on other wing of the house. It is a 4100 sq ft house. My connection is better than the cable distributor provided router, but I still do not have full 3 bar Wifi coverage in the entire house. Overall I am satisfied with the product but wished I had full coverage.

Great product!

This was the easiest system I have ever setup for my house! I was able to remove my Powerline system and an extender with the Orbi mesh network. I had recently installed an outdoor camera and had issues with a consistent wireless signal, so I bought the Orbi system. No dead spots and the outdoor camera has not dropped its signal! My home has an area in the middle of the house with 18 inch stone walls, so I purchased the set of three Orbis and all is well! Love Orbi!

I was hesitant about spending so much money on the Orbi system. I studied this and other whole home systems because I had to purchase so many wifi extenders to cover my home. My home is not big only about 2000 sq ft but because the walls are solid cedar I couldn't get a good signal throughout the house. After purchasing and setting up the Orbi, my signal is strong enough to reach my garden that's about 250 feet from the orbi base. No more extenders! Money well spent.

Exceeded Expectations

I was a bit concerned about having trouble updating the firmware based on other's reviews, but I had no trouble whatsoever. I picked Orbi because they had a dedicated outdoor unit. We live on a lake and I have a steel dock 100 feet from the house (3000 sq ft). I bought the pair of 40 units and to my surprise, I have a full signal throughout the house AND two out of three bars on the dock even without an outdoor unit. All and all, VERY satisfied up to this point.

Seamless Home Wireless
on May 29, 2019

We had repeaters for each 'zone' of a multiple story house with radian heat and therefore little/no signal between floors. Also none of our device reached outdoor areas. Configured Orbi as access point, turned off wifi on Verizon Novatel T1114, located satellites, and now connectivity throughout with single SSID. Also, the "hidden" debug webpage of GUI allowed us to debug problem with Verizon wifi calling that Verizon itself was helpless to fix. Very happy indeed.

Orbi performs

Orbi solved our streaming and gaming issues. We have a two-story 3200 sq ft house with spotty WiFi coverage. My husband is a gamer and getting kicked off at an integral part or lagging with downloads was completely unacceptable. We had a similar system that didn't have the output. Once we got everything hooked up, it has been excellent. The buffering has stopped and the game play is exactly right. Orbi has solved all issues with solid coverage throughout our home.

Great!

Best upgrade ever. Had many issues with my previous router. Just never got the speed it should. After looking at many option, ORBI stood out from the rest. We have a 3300 sq. ft. house with some "odd areas". Those spots used to get 2mbps at most. With Orbi, they are getting close to 200. (Yes, we recently upped our service from 80 to 360mbps.) Easy setup. Devices get tucked into a bookcase and behind our coffee maker. No issues. Wish I hadn't waited so long.
