Love it
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Snowman10528
I live in an older 1900 sq/ft cinder block home that has had 3 additions (all cinder blocks) over the years. So many of my interior walls are 8' cinderblock as well. Previous routers would not reach from one end to he other without adding extenders. Boy what an issue that was. I installed an Orbi about a week ago. What a difference. It covers the whole house, and then some. I even have WiFi in my barn about 40 yards from the house. So nice it's installed, no drops or lags and 50Mps signal almost everywhere. Besides my sons MMPORG and the streaming videos all at the same time just zings along. I would recommend this to everyone. Great product, easy setup.

From spotty to spectacular
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Ruben45122
I stream content to the public from my basement and had a ton of issues with router provided by my cable company. I would be in the middle of hitting a punchline on a joke or be in the middle of big unboxing moment when my connection would just flat out die. I got tired of this so i looked around for a wireless router that would solve my issues. The name ORBI came up quite a bit so i decided to give it a shot and man... I do not regret it. My connection has been awesome downstairs (router is upstairs and satellite is downstairs) and having the ability to control the wifi connection on my childs devices is great. Couldnt have asked for a better product! Great stuff guys.

After using this setup for several weeks, I can't say I've had more than a few stutters. And that's more than likely because of my ISP.
Extremely satisfied with this product, it's signal range, speed, and dependability. I have the "router" and "satellite" setup in central rooms and I get a great connection with about the same speeds(or unnoticeabley different) on my phone and laptop, out a medium distance into my yard away from the house.
If you want to save up for a good medium cost wireless setup: choose this product. At the very least, you will not regret it on a 2000 sqft property. You can add on other satellites as well for better coverage, but I didn't need one.

Orbi Nets a Winner
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Steve73031
The Orbi Net Mesh is a relatively new and welcome addition to the excellent tech devices produced by Netgear. I recently purchased and installed this system of 3 units which has produced a net mesh of strong Wi-Fi coverage throughout my 2 story/4 BR home and
detached garage with studio apartment. It was remarkably easy to set-up and activate, following
the easy-to-understand instructions ... even for a senior citizen! Furthermore, the units are visually attractive, looking more like works of art than pieces of tech ware. Having this remarkable strong and secure WiFi network throughout our entire living areas and yard has really enhanced our home and family life.

Best router I have owned.
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Rob88025
I bought this as my D-Link AC3150 just wasnt performing, regardless on thr updates or the settings, no device ever got more than 54mb and thr signal was ectremely patchy. Now i live in a 3000Sq ft house on 9000 sq ft of land. Every device in my hoise registers 100mb, wherever i am in the house and i get a strong wifi signal everywhere in my yard. The bottom of my yard is 100ft from the back of my house and i still get 75mb there.
I would recommend this to anybody. Moves between the router and the satellite seamlessly, even when making a wifi call, i have never experienced an issue when moving around and switching between signals.
A must have for seemless wifi

Worth the upgrade
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Hueythan79619
Upgrading from Apple Airport Extreme, which was not a bad router in any mean, and the difference is astouding. Both the speed and range are significantly better. I guess I have been paying for the high speed Internet without actually utilizing all of it. Everyone in the family notices the difference as well.
The only drawback is that parental control requires a seperate app called Circle and you have to pay to full use all of its function. Id like to be able set time out and schedule online for my little cousin but can't with the free version. I could do that on my old Airport Extreme.
Anyway, i'd till recommend this to anyone who is looking for a new router.

Very Reliable
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Brian79767
I recently bought a NETGEAR Orbi Home Mesh WiFi System (RBK50) to replace my new Fios Quantum Gateway Modem/Router. The Quantum kept dropping wifi connections and was very unreliable. The Orbi was a little difficult to install but very manageable. The Orbi instructions are terrible. However installation is straightforward and once up and running the signal is very strong and reliable. I have had it in for two months and and the wifi has virtually never dropped a device. I have a large 3 story plus basement house (9,000 square feet) with many users of the system. Even with multiple streaming devices the Orbi speed is still very fast. I would highly recommend it.

Netgear Orbi Home WiFi
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Cagrammie31834
I recently purchased and installed an Orbi home WiFi system. I am a senior woman with good technical skills. My house is two stories with 3200 SF. Installation was extremely simple, with no problems whatsoever. I was very impressed with the plug and play ease with which I took my old system offline and brought this one up. I paired it with a new Netgear cable modem. Both products have improved our home WiFi significantly. We have multiple users and devices going, including Alexa and associated devices. No stalls, no drops, just smooth worry-free WiFi. I highly recommend this system to anyone who is looking to take their home WiFi to a whole new level of performance.
