No more WiFi issues
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Craig76704
Had a single linksys 3200 ACM running dd-wrt for a two story house. We had all sorts of WiFi issues with devices dropping off the network and speed issues. After installing the Orbi's we haven't had any issues with our network. I went with the rbk50 one router upstairs and one satellite downstairs. The satellite has four gig ports so I was able to connect our tv and stereo and remove two WiFi connections. I'm using the Ring app to set bed times on the kids Internet access and monitor their usage. Money well spent!

Greatly Exceeds Expectations
on May 29, 2019

Wow. This mesh technology is far superior to headaches of multiple access points and network extenders.
I was very dubious that the distance and speed claims were greatly exaggerated, but the RBK50 easily covers my 2 story 3000' home. My wireless TVs and ROKUs suddenly play without pausing and I can now stream 4K video from multiple devices at the same time. I am consistently getting 300Mbs speeds (with 1gb comcast) and the units are very stable (no more rebooting!).
Shout out to whoever designed this. Nice job guys!

Orbi Has Easy Setup/Great Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Howard87707
Within about 30 minutes of opening the box; I had the Orbi router along with the 2 satellites up and running. Setup was easy including changing changing Wi-Fi name to one I had been using with another router and also changing the IP address starting point to match that on my previous router. That made it easy for me to update the Orbi with reserved IP addresses for a few specific devices. Coverage in all areas of home have a strong signal; throughput is much faster than my prior router. The iOS App is really good also.

My SAVIOR!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Alex88176
In the past I have dealt with homes less than 2100 sq ft and had horrible experiences with with wifi dead zones. Even after using extenders, it was only a temporary band aid. Recently I purchased a new home and it is three stories. I knew I didnt want to go through with that again especially since I am building a smart home. The orbi is nothing short of a blessing for me. We have so many devices connected and I have strong service wherever I go in my home. I highly suggest you invest in this product if wifi is a priority!

No more traffic jam on the internet HWY.

I have 30 -40 devices when I decided to buy 3 nest cameras.
My netgear AC 1900 dual band would not have the reach to the opposite corner of our 3,000 sqft home. The cameras were constantly getting kicked off line until I purchased the Orbi RBK50 mesh wi-fi tri-band with 1 RBK50 sattelite. The difference was like night and day. All devices run fast and no disconnects. We make the most of spectrum 200/10 speeds.
By using my same network name and password all devices connected quickly with minimal interuptions during setup.

Orbi wifi system
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Arthur40329
As I was always facing problems with having good wifi signal through out my house and yard area, no matter what product I used it just never matched up to its label description or hype. Soon as I upgraded my internet to gig speeds first product I purchased is the orbi wifi system and now I have no dead zone and what's even better I am pushing up to 600 Mbps speeds over wifi through out my entire lot. This product delivered as promised and I will recommend to anyone in search. I am very pleased and satisfied. 5 stars *****

Complete Coverage
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Matt23910
I live in a townhouse that had a few dead spots in key locations. My cable modem and router couldn't really be moved to a more central location so I decided to try the Orbi. It worked amazingly well! I now have complete coverage through out the house, on my deck, and on my porch. I achieve the same internet speeds regardless of location, and the switching between satelites is seamless. I have 24 wireless devices online, all have connected to their closest satellite and work perfectly. Well worth the cost of the system!

Best Router in Years
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Corey89095
I've always purchased up to date routers and kept the highest internet speed I can get in my area. I have gigabit connection and had a linksys ac3200 router before I got my Orbi. I had decent connections but the Wi-Fi was degraded and would drop in certain areas. I had my computer hard wired and only got ~300mb up and down speeds. After my orbi I'm getting ~600mb up and down and I have had no dead zones with Wi-Fi. I haven't had any disconnects since I purchased the orbi mesh system and updated the firmware the day I got it.
