Easy setup & Great coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Ken71459
I bought the Orbi system to replace two Apple AirPorts in our 3600 sq/ft house, and the coverage is tremendously better. I put one upstairs, one downstairs, and a small unit in a hard to reach dead spot in a far corner. Now we have uninterrupted and FAST coverage everywhere in the house. Setup was also easy and only took about 15 minutes with the Orbi app. I love having the ability to control devices right from the app, and the integration with Circle (from Disney) is seamless. Although the units aren't cheap, you get what you pay for! A top quality system that just works.

Absolutely lightening fast fantastic

Orbi is the best wifi mesh network available out there. I am getting full speed of the internet in the every corner of my 3500 square feet house and it streams all the UHD/4K contents without a pause. I have more than 15 devices on the network and everything is working superb. I felt like I should have invested in Orbi since the beginning and it would have saved a lot of trouble I have gone through to get good internet connection in my house. This is a more than 5 star product. I would highly highly recommend Orbi, just purchase it without any reservation. Absolutely fantastic!!!

Greatest Network I've ever had
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Willie99277
Obviously this isn't the first wireless network I've ever had but this is by far the easiest to setup and it has most complete uniform coverage I've ever experienced. Granted, it is a wifi network so obstructions can happen and the impact of those items varies depending on the item. With that being said, it requires more than I expected to effect the quality of the signal. I get better signal outside of my house now than I did in certain rooms using my old router. If I were to recommend a me system to someone moving into a new home this one would easily be at the top of my list.

Exceptional performance
on May 29, 2019

Prior to orbi, I had tried the Linksys Velop system. I was getting 40-60mb/s with 250mb/s plan which is close to what I had already got with Comcast's xFi. The Velop support tried for 3 hours to work on it with no success.
Next day I drove and exchanged for orbi. Instantly all of my wireless devices were hitting 250-300...wirelessly. I then upgraded my internet plan to 1gb and now wirelessly my devices all are getting 500+.
Orbi was so easy to set up, works flawlessly. My only complaint is it is very bulky and doesn't look clean. The Velop has very nice looking towers.

No hassle amazing coverage in my house!

I've had problems with wireless downstairs in my home. I have ~10-15 devices running at a time and needed a robust system. Running a cable from upstairs to downstairs looked ugly. I've been using Orbi for well over a year and I absolutely LOVE it. Lightning fast speeds upstairs and downstairs for multiple streams (Roku, Chromecast, internet enabled TV), gaming on consoles, and my most important PC gaming! I've convinced friends to buy this and even given it as a christmas gift. Everyone loves the Orbi mesh network from casual social media browsers to hardcore low lag gamers.

Finally, a home wireless system that works!

It seems that every 2 years I buy a new router/WAP, trying to get something that covers our whole 2200 SF house. We recently had an Exchange Student move in, and her room is the farthest away from our old WAP. I did research, bought a NetGear Orbi, and it's been wonderful - unicorns and rainbows. :-) Very happy with this purchase. I haven't turned on parental controls yet. I need to and will soon. But basic functionality is great. Our smart TV no longer has huge pauses when trying to get to Netflix; I can watch on my phone while having breakfast without issues. It's nice.

Easy setup & seamless operation

I bought this for my two-story home. While my house is not especially large (2900 sqft), I was having difficulty getting signal to all locations (such as the basement and parts of the second floor).
Setup with this was a breeze once I managed to get my cable modem itself working (not the fault of the Orbi). Once the satellites were in place and synced, everything "just worked"; I have great coverage all over my house and can move seamlessly between station to station.
Configuration and setup are reasonably painless while affording the decent levels of advanced customization.

Awesome product - really works

Have 250Mbps service and a cable modem / router from Xfinity that is on one end of our home. Tried XFi Pods and they kept disconnecting randomly, effectively bringing down my wireless network. In a fit of desperation I bought these and am so glad I did. Placed Orbi's transmitter near the cable modem / router and satellite at the opposite corner of our 3,000 sq ft home. We're getting about 140Mbps in the center of our home and the full 250Mbps around either Orbi side of our home. About 100 ft from our Orbi's outside we are getting around 40Mbps. Couldn't be more pleased.
