Excellent coverage and performance
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: AB10828
I live in an 1100 sf two story condo. My router has to be upstairs and one room downstairs was always a dead zone. I had a very high end router and tried some extenders but it always led to very poor performance in the dead room which was a problem because it has a Nest Cam and Nest Detect that never stayed connected. After I setup the Orbi the wifi signal, both 2.5 and 5 Ghz was excellent in every corner of the condo, including the dead room. All of the devices work perfectly and the Orbi was easy to setup (took maybe 15 minutes).

Awesome Netgear Orbi
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Darwin95601
Wow is how I describe Netgear Orbi! I have a 3 level home and was using a good system of an Apple Airport Extreme router with 2 Apple Airport Express to extend the wireless network. I still had drop off from my 100 mbps broadband internet to less than 50 mbps in several areas in my home. Netgear Orbi's tri-channel mesh ac3000 system is a game changer. I have 114 mbps over every inch of my home now with one router and one satellite. What a truly awesome product, I couldn't be more pleased. I highly recommend this revolutionary system

AMAZING!

I was debating between the google WiFi and Orbi, I bought both of them just to see the difference. Not even comparable, not even close. Returned the google next day! Orbi by far is advanced in many ways. It covers all of my house (1850 SF) and my yard. I have about 24 devices that are using WiFi. Including refrigerator to smart sprinkler system. I I have wemo light switch all over my house, before it would take at least 10-15 seconds to just reload and find them, but now not even 2 seconds. So happy with this product. Highly recommended!

Well done, Netgear

I recently purchased the Orbi 3-pack from Costco to replace an aged, malfunctioning Apple AirPort Extreme. The setup was incredibly simple, the whole house is easily covered and probably the entire yard as well. I had only one difficult spot in the setup, specifically when using the mobile app to set it up, when registering the Orbi on the Netgear site it said "invalid serial number." I went online via the laptop and typed it in manually and the rest of the process was a breeze. It was a minor blip, and the system is working like a charm.

Absolutely Perfect

I have a large house, two story, and have tried 7 different routers, range extenders, and power line WiFi to try and provide WiFi to my 27 connected devices. Setup took me less than 15 minutes, All of my devices connected without incident as well. I now have ONE network SSID, switching from 2.5-5 GHz as needed, and for the first time, NO dead spots in my house at all. This system is brilliant and bulletproof. I will be able to stay with this router for a long time. Do yourself a favor: don't look around any longer....buy this one.

Fantastic Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Kim16426
We struggled for years with coverage to the corners of the house. With a large family of eight and a home office, strong connectivity throughout the house is an absolute must. Bouncing between 2 different network names with the old extender was problematic. I wish we'd have bought the Orbi mesh network sooner. It provides wide coverage to all corners of the house, strong signals, and a single network name. We also like that we can buy an add-on outdoor satellite if needed when the weather is warmer and we spend more time in our backyard.

Orbi Wifi System works great
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Patty22009
We live in a split level house which includes a double brick wall at one end of the house and chimney in the middle of the house. I purchased the Orbi Wifi System that includes the router plus one satellite. The system was easy to set up and I was up and running in no time at all. As a result, I have no connection issues anywhere in the house. The wifi signal reaches to my Ring floodlight at the other end of our garage and I can sit outside on the porch and pergola area with no connection issues. I am very satisfied with this system.

Good router - Great Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: ADamania43791
I have Xfinity Extreme plan with 400MB down and 12 MB up. Before Orbi, I had Apple Extreme with 2 Apple Express and I would never get more than 50MB. Orbi was super easy to setup and now I get 200MB+ at the same spot. I did compare it with Linksys Velop and one winning factor for me was the extra Ethernet ports that Orbi offers over Linksys.
My only complain, Circle app or Netgear Genie are painful to setup for parental control. Also, I have not been able to connect it with Alexa. I am planning to reboot the router to see if it helps.
