Internet speed upgrade not needed now
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Michael36172
We have been thrilled with our Orbi router so far. We were thinking that we needed to upgrade our internet modem for faster service, but after replacing our old Apple router with this new Orbi, our speeds and throughput have increased so much, that we no longer are feeling the need to upgrade our cable internet service. We have full coverage over our 5500 sq ft home and it all seems very fast. We have a very old home with super thick walls, and yet it seems to work just fine. The app and setup is a bit wonky to figure out, but once everything is up and running, it's a breeze.

Excellent whole home coverage
on May 29, 2019

We have a decent-sized home on two levels, about 2800 square feet. Our old router couldn't cover the whole thing reliably, even from the center of the house, and was also having trouble juggling the 25+ devices we had connected at any given time as we starting adding to our collection of "smart home" connected gadgets! The Orbi system took just a few minutes to set up, and other than some confusing setup instructions for the Disney Circle product, it was a breeze! Our 125 Mbps fiber service comes through at a FULL 125 Mbps in most parts of the house now, wireless, which is amazing!

Orbi works great!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Rain43997
We installed the Orbi High-Performance AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi System (RBK50) last week, and so far it has been awesome! We live in a tri story house, and it was a challenge to get a system set up that would work for our various bedrooms and outdoor spaces. We also have a lot of people on the network, and I'm able to easily track how many users are on the wifi through the ap on my phone, and also do regular speed tests. With our old router, we were always getting inconsistant speed tests. Which this router and satellite system, we are always getting speeds HIGHER than what we pay for.

FINALLY!! Full house rock-solid wi-fi!!!
on May 29, 2019

Our trig-level townhouse is a structural nightmare for wi-fi transmission: paver tiles with thin-set concrete between each of the half-level floors, no clear line-of-sight, tons of neighboring interference. Tried to get a pod-based mesh system to work for months but no luck. Picked up an Orbi base and satellite, installed it in 30 minutes and voila! Amazingly awesome, high-speed 60mbps up and down wi-fi everywhere in this entire place. All the AirPlay devices work. Streaming, AppleTV, everything just works. No hiccups. No forgetfulness. No lost connections. IT. JUST. WORKS. Finally.

I had reviewed lot of mesh routers as well watched through YouTube Videos was a tricky business what to purchase as Google WiFi, Lynsis and Orbi were in competition. After lot of thoughts and consideration finally decided to purchase Orbi AC 3000. I just loved it and I amazed the way it works and trust no more wife complaining that our internet sucks. I have a gigabit speed she complained a lot and so me complaining about internet at night time. Orbi AC3000 solved my problem I just love it. Right now I am just looking for some issue so I monitor my internet but no issues right now.

Why did i wait??

I finally decided to get a wifi mesh system. After many years of trying routers with increasing power and bands and wifi extenders. I think 4 different sets over 8 years. Nothing ever worked well. My video streaming was poor to dismal. It was hard to watch internet tv with losing signal. I read about wifi mesh and after reviewing several sites that gave orbi high ratings, i decided to try. Setup was a snap. Basically plug and go. Best wifi signal i have ever had in my house. I can finally watch netflix and prime video on my internet tvs without disruption. Fantastic.

WOW! Amazing, saved my life!

I am an online gamer. I love to sit and play overwatch and madden but the wifi in my apartment is horrible. I bought a new updated router with Spectrum and the only way it was good is if I was LAN connected. This was fine except the wifi was in the living room, and my girlfriend, who likes to be in our room, would be upset as she sat and waited in the room. Getting Orbi allowed for the connection to be strong enough to play in my room! And now we have a smart TV that is connected to it as well so now she can watch her favorite shows in the room (we didn't have cable). LIFE CHANGING!

Fast, easy, and huge improvement
on May 29, 2019

After struggling with a router for over a year that no longer played nicely with our devices, we invested in our Orbi. Normally I dread hardware changeovers, particularly ones with core functionality like our network. But our Orbi installed as quickly and easily as advertised; 5 min and we were back on the internet with almost no input necessary. In fact, the hardest part of the installation was registering the product due to some issues on the Netgear site. The signal is solid throughout our house and even our wired network is working better with all the bad signals now off of it.
