Review: Replaced an 8 year old mesh system WOW - What a great purchase, we used it to replace an older mesh system by a different manufacturer, the router and 2 satellites has replaced 5 devices and given us a far better WiFi coverage in out house. Our previous system would buffer whilst listening to internet radio, this doesn't . Simple and straightforward set up took 10 minutes, in which set up 2 independent wifi networks, one especially for Iot (internet of things) Alexa , smart devices and one for use by us . Blistering wifi speeds throughout the home . I would buy again. the app is only basic operations
Review: Super simple setup & amazing performance! - I have Virgin Media 200Mb/s broadband. I have finally had enough of SuperHub 2 AC, so decided to upgrade my router. I have also ordered Virgin’s Hub 3.0, but decided I will only keep it as a back up, just in case if SH 2 AC fails. Please remember you still need your Virgin Media router, but on the plus side it will only run in MODEM mode, for which it is more than good enough! Anyway back to subject of Netgear ORBI. In two words: JUST WORKS! Brilliant Wifi router! Super simple setup, comes with easy quick guide to help you. You can use your smartphone with an Orbi App to go through setup process, which is a joy! I literally had it up and running in 10mins! No issues, no problems with installation! Super simple! I have two floors in my home, so I needed something that will resolve dead WiFi spots and poor/no reception in certain areas. I have tried Nighthawk R7800, which is a brilliant router, but unfortunately it still left me with poor/no reception in some areas! I tried to locate it differently, tried to set up aerial in various ways/angles, but no joy! And with ORBI... reception is absolutely amazing! 100% coverage, no dead wifi spots at all! In most places, nearly all places I get my maximum broadband speed! In the few spots, where before there was poor/no reception I now get very good signal and still super quick broadband (50-100Mb/s)! Also Single SSID is a brilliant think too! No need to switch and choose between two WiFi networks! ORBI uses band steering, which means it connects your devices in a best way possible (2.4G or 5G) depending on signal strength and performance. You don't have to worry about changing your networks! It works seamlessly and efficiently! I think this is probably the best solution there is at the moment. It is pricey, but is so worth it! Best thing is, that it transforms your WiFi around the home so quickly and in a simple way and you don’t have to be a geek to set it up within minutes!! Brilliant bit of tech!! Well recommended!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mixed views - helps the WiFi but read to avoid setup snags
*by N***E on 18 January 2021*

It took me some time to make up my mind to buy something like this. We've managed with a powerline connection for the TV and a WiFi booster for quite a while now. Increasingly - probably partly due to lockdowns - it seemed silly to have an indifferent connection to the internet in the room that was usually used to connect to it. In the end various reviews and the like led me to this. Setup - I was wary about just using the app given some of the comments in reviews so I was prepared to switch to a browser if needed. However it actually all went fairly well. The suggestion that I use my old WiFi name and password was a good one and easy to do. It saved quite a bit of time changing all the devices etc. I think these things can succeed or fail as much due to the layout of the house and construction as much as anything else. Our house (bungalow) is roughly L shaped and fairly modern. The original router is on one of the arms, the lounge with the TV on the other. This new router and satellite connected easily enough and in the lounge we now have near max possible speeds which is roughly 50% higher than they were. The TV runs on it fine and it doesn't really seem to matter how many devices are attached as far as speed is concerned. Along the "spine" of the 2 devices the speed is great however move to the far corner of the L and the speed/connection is less good. However - and DO read this if you have anything connected to your existing router by cable. This devices seems to only connect to the original router on a LAN - WAN basis. This means basically that file and print sharing services cannot be used. More basically if you have a wired device(s) - certainly hard drives and likely printer - you won't really see them after this finishes its setup. I've spent half a day following various instructions on line about connecting two routers on a LAN to LAN basis. Three factory resets later I've come to the conclusion that this device will not work like that. It has an "internet" post connection on the back. If you use this you get LAN to WAN and WiFi is fine. If you don't use that port (internet instructions tell you not to for LAN to LAN) it will appear to connect according to the original router but will not do so in practice. Essentially you get a new network that does not allow you to see the old one. While the app is certainly OK I would suggest caution on believing the speed tests it does. As I said above the corner of the house (previously not bad on WiFi) is less good with this system. However doing a speed check on the app suggested I had full speed. However using BT speed tester and another one came up with figures 50% lower... You have been warned. The other slight caveat is that it really does like apps like 1.1.1.1 which speeds up DNS stuff and is more private - it will cause issues for the setup of this and at times in the running of it. So - snags definitely but the WiFi performance suggests I should find ways to get around them or live with them. I will update this if anything else occurs to me and comments are more than welcome :-) **OK - updated. Extra star added and LAN - LAN problem solved** After I'd written this I found a somewhat obscure setting on the admin page for this which solves the LAN - LAN issue very easily - when you find it!! On the "advanced" tab and in the "advanced setting" there is a "mode" one. Here you can select whether this acts as a router or just an access point. Setting it to Access Point means you still get all the WiFi benefits AND anything attached to the original router can still be seen. My NAS devices are fully functional again.
