Pros & Cons
Pros
Wifi 6 feels like a brand new wide highway for our compatible laptops (windows 11) and smartphones (android). This is a toshiba while the first one is an hp. Wifi 6 in my testing takes your higher bandwidth further and at a lower loss.
Netgear insight is a decent management system, kind of awkward at times if you have a switch and trying to setup vlans. The insight app is very feature rich and could manage the network from a remote location or locally. This also offers remote access... Read More
Ran through avery smooth setup. Performs just about as well as you'd expect from an orbi system. Only problems were on one of my work laptops and on my work iphone. After upgrading to this unit, all my problems were solved.
Cons
Satellites must be synced wirelessly first, then hardwired. Even though all the satellites are wired with ethernet directly to the router, the satellites often become unsynced. With the satellites disconnected, only the router will accept any wireless... Read More
Product itself is fine when it works - but support and problem resolution was so lousy i returned this product. Support is also painful. I get it's outsourced to folks where english is a second language, but the quality of the call (voip) is terrible.... Read More
The qr on the devices downloads an app that doesn't support said device, so you need to d/l another. The insight app is awful (unless maybe you're an it professional and can utilize some of the advanced settings) the settings are nice and the admin we... Read More
The orbi pro configuration is really, really painful. The only thing left for you is to stick your head in a bucket of water twice, and pull it out once! I currently run two older orbi systems in a couple of my rental properties and they are flawless,... Read More
This was supposed to be an upgrade from my 3 year old orbi mesh router. It is pretty much useless & is outperformed by our old $150 google mesh.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to use and management with a best bandwidth experience , excellent !
Great mesh system, i use it for my home as a passthrough connection for my fiber gateway.
That leaves me with the consumer grade orbi app, well it won’t work with the (pro) series hardware.
The netgear genie app won’t work at all and the nighthawk app is useless for orbi devices.
Price
Com and i’m very pleased with my purchase and think it’s an excellent value.
I was able to get this item for less than half the price of retailer msrp.
Got this for $20 instead of msrp due to a mistake on prime day and they honored it.
I highly recommend if you get a good deal
Shipping
They arrived on time and were packaged carefully.
Competitiveness
The speed is about 650mbps at 2 meters distance which is much better than 350mbps of the rbk13.
The signal coverage is significantly better than the old rbk13.
Depending what you are trying to accomplish as far as distance, look and design these are likely more then enough for people in... Read More
I can't say this is any better than my nighthawk r7000 router, but i had a deadspot in my garage after installing ceiling racks... Read More
