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!

Great and Effective Product
on May 29, 2019

Setup was extremely easy and working in a matter of minutes. Wireless coverage from the router and satellite units are very impressive.
I easily get 200mb/s sitting in my bedroom now, whereas before i was getting 3-5 with crazy latency.
Product has also been very "set it and forget it." Running for a few weeks now with no issues whatsoever, which is exactly how networking gear like this should be.
Overall, great product, i highly recommend.

No more dead zones

Prior to purchasing the RBK50, I had a fast, triband, gaming router that was fast and wonderful for May gaming setup, but didn't work in the side of my house that includes my garage or bedroom. Now with this system, I didn't lose any speed on my gaming systems and no longer have any dead zones in or around my house, all the more important since we switched from satellite to streaming our television and do a lot of watching in our bedroom at night.

Finally a plug-and-play router
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Joe90001
Last year I purchased a router reviewed as 'best for most people' that was no better than the 8 yr old one I was replacing. This year I needed better coverage at far end of house to enable wireless streaming so I bit the bullet, paid 3x more and got an Orbi. Installation took 10x less effort and time than any other router I've had and coverage is full bars at far end of house plus backyard. So far the Orbi has been the perfect router for my needs.

Very effective, low maintenance system
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Pete92824
I went with Orbi (RBR50 / 1 satellite) on the recommendation of my installer based on the vertical layout of my home - three stories plus basement. It's been a great choice - fast speeds on every floor, including the basement where my office is. No maintenance other than checking for periodic updates. The app is very handy and easy-to-use. Previously, I had used Xfinity's router with great frustration. Now completely satisfied. Highly recommend Orbi.

Perfect configuration
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: dkingsbu42731
We work in two separate buildings and have printers and computers in each but need to be able to access all of the devices from multiple parts of each building. The Orbi AC3000 was the first system I have found that met all of our needs with a reasonably simple installation. I do not use many smart phone Apps but the Orbi App is pretty slick and makes configuration pretty simple. Positioning the satellites is critical but it is a manageable problem.

Wow. I'm impressed.

This Orbi Mesh WiFi system has exceeded my expectations. I have a large home, and the pitiful WiFi router installed by the cable company covered about 15% of my house. I purchased the Orbi system with 1 WiFi router and 1 satellite. I intended to purchase another satellite but I don't need to because the system is perfect already. Provides super fast WiFi throughout my whole house. The advertised covered space of 5,000 sq. ft. home is legitimate.

Super easy setup and great performance
on May 29, 2019

The Orbis look sleek and are very intuitive. Setup was a breeze, just connected them right to my Apple Time Capsule 2. We have a detached garage with several concrete walls between it and our cable router. The whole garage and driveway were dead zones until we added Orbi. Now my car is getting speeds almost as fast as the computers right next to the cable router and was finally able to get its software updates, just in time for the AutoPilot upgrade!!
