Great coverage and so nice not to have to rely on net extenders with separate SSIDs anymore. I am also seeing very high upload and download speed measurements (worst case is about 50% of the maximum indoor speed) outside my home, pretty much everywhere on my 6.5 acre property, without having any outdoor access points. My Wi-Fi propane tank monitors never miss readings anymore.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Read a lot of reviews about it being hard to set up. I followed the instructions and it all set up without a hitch. Range is much better tham my router and extander and it seamlessly switches as needed so now I no longer to do it manually. Speeds are the best I've had. Have a VPN for work that someti.es has presented issues with other router/modemns but so far no issues. For the reviews about it not working with Xfinity, it a tivated and has worked fine.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to set up

The router and satellite were easy to set up, but coverage is not as good as advertised. I will need another satellite but they don’t appear to sell singles. Frustrating.

Easy setup but lacking coverage

Very easy to get the network up and running. But coverage not what was promised. Need another satellite for my house but they don’t seem to offer individuals.

Easy setup, great performance

I had a mesh system that seemed to get the job done but after my wife and I started working from home every day, along with having two kids at home that like to stream on our TVs and tablets, we started noticing connection issues - signal drops and slow speeds with our WiFi. I decided on the Orbi WiFi 6 Mesh system and I am glad I did. The setup was extremely simple, everything clearly labeled, and the app is slick. Every corner of my house is basically running at the speed I am paying my ISP for and there has been zero drops or lagging on any device since installation. I would recommend this to anyone.

Great system. Easy to set up. Strongest signal in all 3500 sq.ft. with no dead zones. In some areas 3-4x faster than previous WiFi. I feel that I am finally taking advantage of 1GB service into the home. Thank you Netgear Orbi.

Easy Set-Up, Helpful App

Set-up was a breeze. The app made the set-up and all of the customizations easy. Speed is markedly better than our previous router. Very satisfied!
