I installed an Orbi 370 -2 satellite system. It provides good coverage over my entire house, although I doubt it really covers 6000 sq ft since my house is only 2400 and it doesn’t cover the whole yard.
I recently purchased an Orbi 370 Dual Band WiFi 7 Mesh 3 pack from Net Gear. I was always an Orbi fan and had the Orbi wireless mesh system (earlier models) over the last decade. After purchasing this, I was blown away with the ease of set up and (most importantly) the performance and value of this system! I did a speedtest and with 1GB service from Altafiber, I was astounded by the 978.14 download speed and 642.99 upload speeds. My IT guru and long-time technology go-to-guy saw these speeds and, like me, was blown away. Both my wife and I stream daily from home offices and have over 26 devices connected to the network. So happy that Orbi (once again) leads the way in WiFi 7 mesh networking. Thank you Net Gear!
I chose the Orbi 370 series because my previous RBR750 had been rock-solid for years without a single issue. I upgraded mainly to take full advantage of my ISP’s 2.2 Gb service. My satellites are connected via a wired backhaul through a 2.5 Gb switch, and I’m getting excellent speeds throughout the entire house with zero dead zones or drop-offs. Overall, I’m very pleased with the upgrade, and the price point felt very reasonable.
Just moved to a bigger house and needed to extend my wifi coverage, the setup process is pretty much plug and play when using the Orbi app, signal is great throughout the whole home and outside. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.
Easy setup in under less than 20 minutes. Had some buffering issues at first but support had me change settings and seems to have stabilized. If not for the having to call support issue would have given 5 stars.
More than enough WiFi for my 1800sf home. Both upstairs and downstairs coverage is very good. Easy to set up with the app. My speeds are faster than they have ever been. Very happy with the performance. My only critique is that when changing out my older model NETGEAR mesh with the new one, I used the app and my armor subscription should have 8 months left from my old router and it did not carry over and I will have to pay again after a 30 day trial. Doesn’t seem right that it’s tied to the router when I used the same app to add the new one.
The product works well when up and running. I had to figure out on my own the synchronization between the router and it's satellites. I didn't see that in the instructions. Also, the instructions assume my modem has a blue status indication light. It does not.
