Awesome device. Just don’t get it wet

Rocks for performance and distance. Not so great at the outdoor part. I’ve had to move it undercover as I’ve lost two of these devices to water intrusion. My advise is to caulk the top to keep the water out.

So easy to set up, even easier than my Netgear extender. Was looking for something to help with my wifi signal on my sunporch outside. This has been a wonderful investment, well worth the money. Would definitely recommend Orbi to anyone having wifi issues due to distance between modem and devices.

Love It

I have a 2800 sf. home and like many the internet hookup is at one end and where we spend most of our time is at the other end. With our old system the signal was weak but now with the satellite nearby there are no issues. Also the setup was easier than expected since it let me use my old systems ID and Password. Thanks !

Simple to run, .moderate control

Simple setup, seems to only have moderate features and in depth control. A little high in pricing for the power of the equipment. Took 3 ORBIs and I still have less coverage area than a single standard router design

Easiest setup ever but DHCP inflexible
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I have 1 Orbi with 2 satellites and wifi coverage is now great in our home and noticeably faster than with the Cisco predecessor. Setup was a breeze -- working within 5 minutes. I have only one complaint. Even if you pick a class B IPv4 address, DHCP on the Orbi will only let you have a 24-bit mask (i.e. 255.255.255.0 or 254 devices) for DHCP. Now that is enough for most homes. But when you have smart light bulbs, smart thermostats, Alexa controlling everything, and a large family with a host of wireless devices, I can see the day soon when 254 IP addresses will not be enough. So why not let me use a private class B space and have DHCP have at least a /23 space (500+ IP addresses)? Netgear, please add some flexibility to your DHCP. Other than that, I'm a big fan! And I love the integration with Circle to put some granular permissions / constraints on my wireless users.

It's an amazing product

We have an unusual house, stone walls 18" thick and lots of stucco as well. The network provider's wifi barely covered 2 rooms. After installing ORBI I have it through out the house. It's a modern day miracle.
