Simple and effective
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Parkaboy52586
My house was built in 1958 and has cinderblock walls and some concrete in the interior structure as well. This led to some very spotty wifi throughout. Orbi has completely fixed that. The setup was easy and while I had to do some Google searching to configure everything, that has more to do with my internet coming from Google Fiber and having to make the Fiber Box play well with Orbi. I've already recommended Orbi to friends.

Wow!!! Easy Hookup!!!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: MarkW98393
I was really afraid of having to hook this system up and the shutdown the old WiFi. A couple ideas from friends and Orbi using my iPhone to walk me through it; and in about 20 minutes I was complete and getting the benefit of streaming movies. After reading all the negative ratings of the auto-updates, I was skeptical of the first rev update it offered me. I hit Update Now anyway and - No Problems!!! Still running great.

Orbi is awesome

I recently installed an Orbi RBK50 system in our house. It was super easy to setup the Orbi base with one satellite for our two story house. The Orbi phone app made the process very simple. We were having trouble with the Apple Airport system that we previously used. The Orbi gives us much better coverage throughout our property with a healthy speed boost. If you are considering an Orbi system, just do it. You won't be sorry.

Netgear Orbi
on May 29, 2019

Finally a router that delivers as promised. I have owned three Verizon Fios routers and the linksys EA9500 router. The Orbi is the only router that could actually reach the other side of my home. I plugged in my son's playstation 4 and did a speed test and it showed 290mbs. I am currently paying for 300mbs service so that's not bad at all. Overall I think this is a great buy and would definitely purchase it again if o had to.

Great perfoprmance - easy to setup
on May 29, 2019

System was very easy to setup. It's solved most if not all of the performance problems we've had in the house.Having a single network as opposed to multiple nets in the house has made moving around much easier and ended problems with devices picking up the wrong net by mistake. Performance was good even while using the wireless backhaul, but since I have Cat6 in the house, switching to wired backhaul has made the system great.

True Whole Home

Prior to our Orbi, we hade two separate routers as we have a lath and plaster home which bounced the signal and caused us to constantly switch from one WiFi to the other. With Orbi we now can move about freely with no worries of dropping the signal. Plus, I can keep tabs on the teenager and it off internet to his devices when I chose.
We're loving the better connection, and ability to limit the connection when needed.

Awesome product!

Orbi is amazing. It is the quickest and easiest router that I've ever installed. I downloaded the Orbi app to my mobile device and had the system install completed in 5 minutes!
I have a 4000 sq ft house and there isn't a 'dead spot' anywhere. I used Orbi to replace a high end, dual band router that could only cover a portion of the house. I highly recommend Orbi to anyone needing reliable, whole house, wifi coverage.

Problem Solved!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Bob62474
I've tried two other wi-fi extenders and the reception in the rear extension of the house was always unreliable. My house is about 3500 sq ft, over 200 years old and has horsehair plaster and other items that likely contain lead. Superman would probably be safe if there was kryptonite in the next room! The Orbi solved the problem and the reception/coverage in the extension is full and fast. Extremely satisfied with the Orbi!!!
