Best purchase in a long time
on May 29, 2019

The Orbi WiFi system has solved our internet connection issue in our home! We have a 2 story home with multiple computers, tablets, phones, and smart TVs. We were constantly having slow streaming issues. Since adding Orbi we have not had a single issue! Streaming movies have not had to buffer and no one has had to disconnect from the WiFi system to slow speeds. Orbi was easy to set up too, which was a huge bonus. If we had realized this system was going to solve all of our WiFi issues, we would have bought it much sooner!

Best WiFi Mesh
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Nikesh75711
I have gigabit WiFi at the house but it's an old house so it's not built for hardwire. Originally I had the google WiFi routers. 4 set up in a 5500 sq foot house. Downstairs where the modem was I would get about 200 mbps but upstairs I would get a range of 60-80 mbps. I decided to try the orbi out and even though there are three in a pack, they are powerful. Upstairs I now get anywhere from 130-200 mbps. It increased my speed up to 2x easily. The only con I have is that these satellites are huge and there's no mount

Best ever!

I have fiber optic in an 1800 sqft home. My signal decreases to less than 10mbs with standard AT&T router. Cant watch TV when my kids are on their devices. I have researched a lot before purchasing an Orbi system. It took a bit of time to ensure my old wifi would not interfere but installation was a total success! My Roku network signal is excellent at its furthest point! First time ever. Best of all is I can still stream movies in my family room with multiple devices in use. I would highly recommend this system.

No more WiFi issues
on May 29, 2019

Had a single linksys 3200 ACM running dd-wrt for a two story house. We had all sorts of WiFi issues with devices dropping off the network and speed issues. After installing the Orbi's we haven't had any issues with our network. I went with the rbk50 one router upstairs and one satellite downstairs. The satellite has four gig ports so I was able to connect our tv and stereo and remove two WiFi connections. I'm using the Ring app to set bed times on the kids Internet access and monitor their usage. Money well spent!

Greatly Exceeds Expectations
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Paul99574
Wow. This mesh technology is far superior to headaches of multiple access points and network extenders.
I was very dubious that the distance and speed claims were greatly exaggerated, but the RBK50 easily covers my 2 story 3000' home. My wireless TVs and ROKUs suddenly play without pausing and I can now stream 4K video from multiple devices at the same time. I am consistently getting 300Mbs speeds (with 1gb comcast) and the units are very stable (no more rebooting!).
Shout out to whoever designed this. Nice job guys!

Orbi Has Easy Setup/Great Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Howard87707
Within about 30 minutes of opening the box; I had the Orbi router along with the 2 satellites up and running. Setup was easy including changing changing Wi-Fi name to one I had been using with another router and also changing the IP address starting point to match that on my previous router. That made it easy for me to update the Orbi with reserved IP addresses for a few specific devices. Coverage in all areas of home have a strong signal; throughput is much faster than my prior router. The iOS App is really good also.

My SAVIOR!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Alex88176
In the past I have dealt with homes less than 2100 sq ft and had horrible experiences with with wifi dead zones. Even after using extenders, it was only a temporary band aid. Recently I purchased a new home and it is three stories. I knew I didnt want to go through with that again especially since I am building a smart home. The orbi is nothing short of a blessing for me. We have so many devices connected and I have strong service wherever I go in my home. I highly suggest you invest in this product if wifi is a priority!
