Increased Wifi Stability
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Phil36022
Regarding model RBK33, Full bars everywhere around the house, 2600 sqft 2 story home. Setup was a breeze, although, the satellites required a few tries to connect to the router. Had to move the satellites closer each time. Wished the router had more features, I would like the option for VPN client. I would like to see more or all options available on the App. But for functionality of being a pure Wifi access point throughout the entire house, HUGE difference. Constant 80 Mbs download and 11 Mbs upload. Big improvement from previous extenders.

WiFi Miracle

We decided to 'cut the cord' in our home and do away with cable/satellite. We have AT&T internet and it does a poor job at supplying our home with a good signal. I decided to buy the Orbi before I switched internet companies because I heard good things about the product. Long story short, it was the best thing I have done. My kids can play video games without any lagging, 9 devices connected to the system and our streaming is better than ever. I would recommend this product for any household wanting to boost their WiFi. A+ in my book!

Phenomenal Router
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Eric61477
I used to have an Apple AirPort Extreme and Express system. When I bought my house I moved to an Orbi system for a true mesh system. After reading countless reviews I bought the Orbi mostly for the separate backhaul band that allows for fast speed and excellent coverage throughout the entire house and yard. It doesn't disappoint because it is doing great. Setup was a breeze and it has so many useful networking features and options within the app. It puts my old Airport system to shame. I am so happy with my purchase and know you will be too!

Its day & night better than what I had

For years I've been renting the cable modem/router from comcast. And for years I've been experiencing problems with connections. Comcast would come out do the same o song & dance. Helping me limp along to mederocore stability. I finally had enough & bit the bullet & bought the Orbi. This is a ROCK SOLID system that's been running perfectly! Also, I'm not a tech savvy person when it comes to setting up stuff like this. But I gotta promise you, that it could be easier to do. With in a few steps everything was up & running smoothly! Very happy now.

Hello Orbi, goodbye Linksys
on May 29, 2019

We needed a wifi mesh to cover three separate living areas spread over 6000 sq ft in a L shaped configuration. No problem for the Orbi. Easy to set-up and install, this pre-paired system has the range and performance we were looking for. Although it has limited customization options and lacks the abilities to integrate IoT devices for smart home devices, it provides the power and reliability we demand without a hiccup. I'm gonna get the plug-in (outlet) router next and add to the existing system whenever or wherever I might need it in the future.

Full Signal
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Superbawn72872
I purchased the Orbi Home WiFi to solve WiFi dead spots in my 3 level home and I couldn't be happier with the results. The set up was super easy and the satellite units only require an ac power outlet, so you can put them almost anywhere. If you have children you'll especially like the ability to open the app and block access to specific devices. It's also easy to change the passwords, network name etc. The last thing is the speed, there is zero lag with the Orbi. Enjoy streaming music while streaming movies with no issues. Highly Recommend!

Smooth as Silk

Putting this mesh network in place in my house provides maximum speed on the WiFi in every corner. The ISP connection I have could be faster, but the Orbi makes it feel like every device has the full bandwidth. Having an Ethernet hard line available at each satellite is very convenient for plugging in printers and other devices. My son used a WiFi dongle to connect his desktop computer before and we had nothing but trouble with it. Now his remote location is just the same as being next to the residential gateway. I am very pleased with this product.

Provide Real Control In an Old House
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: the38701
Being able to separate IoT devices onto their own network while extending coverage throughout my old house for all devices makes the Orbi Home Mesh a must!
Our service provider's router just didn't provide the proper admin rights to set my house up as I wanted it. The Orbi gives me and my family relief in knowing that even if someone was able to penetrate our network via our appliances, they'd be stopped cold from accessing the rest of the network.
Plus the added range gives me the ability to use the network while in workshop in the basement.
