RBK753

I got these on a Amazon 2nd chance deal due to a damaged box for less than half price. Unpacked them and threw the box away. These were brand new and undamaged. Setup was super easy, reused my old SSID and Pwd and everything adapted seamlessly. Fixed my buffering issue ( Dad is a very demanding streamer, retired with multiple TV's). We have multiple homes on the property and these are providing excellent coverage. They seem to be performing very good, my camera streams are nice and steady and dad had stopped calling and complaining about his shows getting that damned circle while he is watching them (that alone is worth the price!). Your results may vary.

The NETGEAR Orbi Whole Home Tri-band Mesh WiFi 6 System (RBK753) is exceptional! With coverage up to 7,500 sq. ft. and support for 40+ devices, it provides a strong, reliable signal for our staff of 20. The AX4200 speed ensures fast internet throughout our office. The router and 2 satellite extenders were easy to set up and have greatly improved our connectivity. Highly recommend for any large space needing robust WiFi coverage!

I don't even know where to start on this review. I bought these three months ago to replace my 7 year old Google WiFi (1st generation). I spent a while researching different mesh systems, talking with friends, and reading input from the community. Ended up settling on this Orbi system. Walk through the various aspects of this mesh system: 1) Setup is reasonable easy. Thankfully seeing as how I have had to do it 4 times in 3 months. I will say, changing the network name is a bit of a hassle. You need to connect to the router WiFi network to set it up. If you change the name, the app will not automatically connect you to the new network, or be smart enough to adjust things automatically. You need to go into your settings, connect to the new network name, and then wait 5 min for the Orbi system to setup. 2) Performance wise, it is okay. Not great. Speeds are definitely higher than they were on my old system. I don't see a lot of dead zones in my house. My biggest issue here is that if the main router loses power, I need to do a factory reset and create the network again. That means going through the entire setup again for anything from a power surge, a power outage because of weather, or needing to manually turn the power off to the room because of electrical work. The routers restart, and only about half of my devices will reconnect. Even within similar apps (one Wyze camera will connect, one will not). I will restart the system, and then other devices will connect and be disconnected. It is absolutely ridiculous that I need to do a factory reset to get the network back working. 3) Customer support is an absolute joke. I forgot how bad it is. First off, everyone you speak too is borderline hard to understand. Guess the overseas connection isn't superb, go figure. Second, they give you 90 days support. So I spent hundreds of dollars on Netgear products, and after 3 months, they will not help unless I spend more money. Did not realize that before I bought the Orbi system otherwise I would. Have never considered them. Thirdly, the support they give is absolutely worthless. Two people I spoke to both told me to factory reset. And when I asked if I will have to do that everytime I lose power, I was told "No! Of course not!". What a joke. Avoid this at all costs. Might be good for some people, but not me. They have become glorified paperweights. Expensive paperweights at that. Should have just gone with the newer Google mesh. Least their customer support is good. And they stand by their products without asking more money for useless help.

I feel foolish for struggling with the absolutely terrible AT&T wifi router (BGW210) and 5 extenders in my roughly 4500 sqft 3 level house for the past 3 years. When the wifi worked (which was becoming increasingly less common) I got maximum of 250mbps downloads on the 1gbps fiber connection and very spotty coverage in many parts of the house. That was more than enough if not particularly satisfying. Well, this set up (ultimately the 3 unit version plus one more satellite for good measure) is now giving me >600mbps downloads OUTSIDE my house! While it wasn't the easiest to set up the satellites (each took several attempts) they have been working reliably for a week now with NO ISSUES (which could not be said for AT&T set up EVER). You do need to run the AT&T router in the IP Passthrough mode, but youtube video from "Miller Technical Services" on how to do that was perfect. It took 5 minutes and now I have real wifi. I highly recommend this set up for AT&T Fiber customers who are having problems with the terrible AT&T equipment.

Not having any luck getting these to work with AT&T fiber. Having connection problems and getting about 50mbps rather then the 1 gig coming into the router. Netgear support is also a joke. Zero help, they just want to charge you money for useless support and they try and get off the phone as soon as possible. Update after the settings were changed firmware was updated it started working. Also had a bad satellite that had to be replaced.

Start by downloading the Orbi app to your phone and things move swiftly and easily when installing the router unit. Place and plug in the satellites units and they connect automatically. We have a fast, strong signal on all three floors of our 3400 sq ft home. Update on the downsides: supports only two networks, one for you and another for guests. Then you’ll be nagged about subscribing to additional security for it. Maximum security should be an unquestionable given in my view.

Works great, super easy to setup.

These are great. I literally get Wi-Fi everywhere on property and they’re nice and sleek.
