Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had an old wifi 5 modem/router system that worked fine for my 1 bedroom apartment. We recently moved to a 3 floor, 3 bedroom home and needed to update our router. I tried using a wifi extender for awhile but it wasn’t the answer. Bought this Mesh Wifi 6 system and have no regrets. Set up was easy and performance is steady. I have 1 gigabyte internet. I have about 25 connected wifi devices and when i test the speed on my phones/ipads they each pick up 200mbps download speeds and 30mbps upload speeds or more throughout the entire home. I have a few devices plugged directly into the router and they have about 700mbps download speeds. The Orbi app is simple and effective. Would recommend this to anyone.

This router and nodes have exceeded my expectations. Setup was quick, and easy. My speeds have increased all over the house. I buffer VERY little. I’m glad I didn’t spend $700 like I was going to for another mesh system. My house is 2 stores, 2,400 sqft & I have smart switches, outlets and lighting throughout. (Prob 50-60 smart devices, not including phones, tablets, consoles, fire sticks, etc.). My 1 suggestion, if possible, get the HUB as central in the home as possible. I have cat6 in every room so I placed the hub in a central room and was able to have even better range from HUBs to nodes. Things work so well I upgraded my mom’s router to this system.

Replaced my Amazon house branded mesh system with the Orbi after inconsistent speed and coverage and this system rocks! Wifi is almost as fast and strong as a wired connection pretty much anywhere in the house. Super easy to setup with phone app and also has a web based interface for more detailed fine-tuning. These are expensive but well worth the price.

Purchased an Orbi Mesh system from Best Buy. Got it at an outstanding price. Took about 20 minutes to set up the main router and 2 included satellites. My entire home and anywhere in the yard I can pull 330 mbps down and 12 up under 12 ping for blazing fast streaming. We also have a smart home with numerous cameras, security system, door and window sensors, smart speakers, and switches and bulbs. Every single thing in my house now works flawlessly. The controls in the Orbi app are super easy to use and helps me keep tabs on our network. Thanks Best Buy and Orbi for the awesome new network!

Upgraded from an older N revsion orbi system that was about 6 years old. Needed some more thoroughput for all the streaming devices and smart house features not to mention upgraded line speed. This one was even easier to set up than the original which was very simple. Pulling almost the full 200mbps on speed tests and easily covering 1800 sq ft with only one satellite unit. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for stupid easy setup and range.

The Orbi system works 100% better than the extenders we used with our internet provider. With the other company's extenders, we would have dropped and spotty coverage and, when we contacted the, we were always told something different and to try something different...and nothing worked. Since we've been using Orbi, the internet connectivity and coverage have been wonderful, dependable and has made working from home less stressful.

These are great for gaming. I have the main unit in our leaving room and the two satellites is mine and my brothers room. I pay for 1 gb internet and was only getting about 30 mb down and about 40 up. When first installed them I jumped to 130 down and like 200 up. So its still wasnt what I wanted so I hard wired into the satellite and it got much faster still not the full gig I pay for but its much better now. Also it was very easy to hook up to my At&t fiber. Honestly thought it was going to be harder from what I read but was super easy to install. The orbi app is very easy to use as well and has so many features as for partner control options and reseting the password and renaming. I give it an 8/10 super easy to use and setup also super fast.

Greatly improved coverage and performance over the router with expander i was using. I added 20 wifi devices along with the 6 i alre as dy had and speeds increased. Before some items just would not work. Now i have wifi access st anytime on my propety. And set up was quick and easy.

Purchased NetGear Orbi Tri-Band Mesh Wifi 6 System for my home. Substantial increase in speed and coverage. Easy to install and customer service is excellent. Previously system did not have the coverage and was challenging to connect home devices. Had issues with latency when streaming video. Not no more with Orbi the issues have been resolved and coverage has exceeded my expectations. Purchase through Best Buy. The entire experience exceeded all expectations.

It's very early yet since I just purchased this today, but so far am pleased. The setup was fairly simple. Being familiar with the setup of such devices, I didn't download the app but instead used the web based setup (192.168.1.1), and was happy to find settings familiar to me from other Netgear routers I've used. Then I connected it to my cable modem, and at first it didn't want to pass info to/from the internet, but a reboot of the cable modem resolved the issue. Next I turned on the two satellites. This took a bit longer that I expected, but they connected and began doing their job with no other tinkering required. I next performed a firmware update ... that went fine and updated all 3 components at once. And lastly I renamed the SSID and Network Key to match that of my previous modem, and all of my devices came back online flawlessly. Now I'm experimenting with placement of the satellites to sort out where they will provide the best signal. I also ran a number of speedtests during the setup, and Im getting as good or better performance as with my previous router. One thing I've noticed is that walls and twists and turns in the hallways take a big toll on performance ... moreso than with my previous Netgear Nighthawk ... so satellite placement will be super important. I may even add a 3rd satellite to ensure I get coverage to some outdoor locations that may need better coverage, but that's TBD at the moment. But, so far, no complaints!

Great internet throughout the house and yards. We're in a small lot but get full bars at all points on our property. I was able to set it up without help so it was easier than other systems.

I have been dealing with Linksys 5500 series mesh routers for the past 2 years and I was already frustrated. I picked these up while i was getting another order fulfilled and do not regret the decision. The only thing I would want more out of this system is additional cable slots (each unit has 2 on them). Set up look less than an hour (FOR ALL OF THE NODES!!!!) and the app is WAY better than anything I saw from Linksys. I don't know how their customer support is but I also hope I won't need to use it :P. This is easily my #1 recommendation at the moment and I would recommend this to my friends and family who need a no hassle way to upgrade/improve their home networks.

These are a great mesh coverage for your home or office. The speed is amazing. Easy to setup. The app allows you to see how they are doing. They will not disappoint you.

This Orbi network replaces a hodgepodge of WiFi gear (router plus various extenders) and it works very well. Even get a decent signal on an enclosed porch that is separated from the house by a brick exterior wall when a satellite is placed near the doorway to the porch; the router is in the basement next to the foundation. Setup was fairly easy as well. The only change I would want is for the satellites to have 3 or 4 wired Ethernet ports; they have only 2. Remote admin access works well, and the Armor security software seems to be useful; have not installed the Bitdefender software on any eligible devices.

After reading reviews on multiple mesh WiFi systems I decided to try the Orbi. I have a workshop approx 100 feet from my house and hoped to extend WiFi from the house to the shop. I placed the router in the center of the house, one satellite in the bedroom closest to the shop, and another satellite in the shop. Setup was very simple and ithin a few minutes I had WiFi I’m the shop. I was also shocked when I looked at the network map on the Orbi app and could see the satellite in the shop was connected directly to the router. Speed tests in the shop average 75 down, 27 up, 16 ping, very similar to speeds inside the house. These speeds are similar to the hardware Ethernet speed tests. I’m very impressed with this Orbi system and would recommend if you need to create a WiFi network over a large area.

I specifically wanted a mesh system that did not require managing in the cloud. As a result, I am not using several features, but I also did not have to setup an account with netgear to setup the system. Setup was pretty easy, but I did have to go back through reset and full setup when I switched modems. Coverage is very good in my 3-story house (one station on each level) and yard. I get plenty of bandwidth (don't go with an AC technology today). If you are happy to manage everything through the cloud, there are other cheaper options at this speed, or faster at the price (deco), but this is a solid system that can be entirely managed through web interface. Also possible to add additional Orbi AX satellites, but you cannot use older AC ones.

works well in 2400 square foot home plus garage year and a half without issue which is a first here

It's fairly expensive but I use spectrum 400 Mbps and it serves my needs. Only need one wifi6 mesh satellite to cover my whole house but have a second one just in case I need it later. Easy to set up. Great range and speed.

This is the perfect wifi system to get hi-speed wifi to my tiny house (detached and about 100ft away from my house). I could not be happier with the seamless internet speeds even at a considerable distance from the main connection. Two thumbs up for spreading wifi around our property. One suggestion that I found super helpful was to create the user name and password to match your outgoing router for a smooth integration with all devices.

The Orbi was super easy to set up. It only took us a few minutes. The signal travels very far, so far, that I haven’t been able to test where it ends yet because I’d have to go out onto our lake that is 300 ft from our house. We have absolutely no cell service surrounding our house so this is exactly what we were looking for. I can’t wait to get out ice fishing and see if I can send fishing pics to my family. Great system, well worth the money.
