This was one of the easiest technology installations I have ever done. Download the app, follow the directions on your phone and you'll have rocking WiFi in your house. Remember to use the same SSID name and password (you can change it later if you want) as your old WiFi so that all of your devices will automatically log in. Very happy with ease as well as improved bandwidth in all corners of the house.

Hooked it up to my old router and it boosted it significantly but not did it only boost it, it made it where I can use more devices on it with out slowing it down I'm absolutely in love with this router definitely a 10/10 thank you for making this amazing router nethear you guys deserve router of the year or something like that lol!

Have been using various Netgear products for more than 11 years and their ability to lead the market in terms of innovation and quality consistency is really great. In that aspect the orbi series is a major leap forward. Setting this system up was fairly simple and if you know the dead spots in your home already identifying the location for the satellites wouldn't be a major issue. If not go ahead with your standard assumption based on the distance between the routers. The app is really user intuitive and if you are a parent, the Circle app with all the parental controls is a value-add.

Love my Orbi set up. One router and two satellites. 3500 square foot home with concrete walls and multiple floors. Excellent reception and top speeds from each satellite. 300 MBPS across the whole house with no dead zones. Fairly easy set up, and very good tech support for the few questions I did have. Beautiful design, looks nice. Not some clunky looking tech you get from your cable provider. I highly recommend this product, worth every penny.

We have cable internet and for a while we were having trouble with spotty WiFi and not able to use multiple devices at the same time. I'm just sorry we waited so long to buy this product - installed last week and since then the WiFi has been great all over our house and much faster download speeds. Very happy with the purchase. Very easy set up - only took about 10 minutes from opening the box to being all set up.

I have tried various configurations of netgear routers and access points previously and had little luck covering a large home with WiFi. The orbi system was super easy to set up, configure and get coverage. I did have to play with the location of the base stations due to interference, but once I found the sweet spot I had WiFi everywhere. I'm currently moving to a new house and I look forward to being able to plug in my Orbi system and have wireless on day one.

I have to say the simplified interface had me worried. but I like it. I had traditional routers where I had to manually set all the limits and this has made it simpler. I have a better connection with those items I was having issues with and that it is expandable is even better.

Greatly improved performance and dead-simple set up!. After trying many 'range extenders' to improve Wi-Fi coverage and performance I decided to try the Orbi mesh. I'm glad I did. It has dramatically improved the Wi-Fi in my house. It was easy to set up and the Orbi app makes it simple to administer.

I work in the IT field for a living. I do have to say this was by far the easiest setup of a router that I've done. I have passthrough setup on my dsl modem. This typically means setting up ppoe manually on the router. To my surprise. I went through the Orbi auto configuration wizard which detected my passthrough setup. The Orbi set up with ease. Because I was curious, I reset my dsl modem, configured it without passthrough, and went back through Orbi setup. The Orbi detected my internet connection and changed the dhcp scope to avoid any potential conflicts with my ISP. Not to mention all the parental controls. Kids playing on the internet. I get, "Dad let me finish my game until I die." I pull the app up and kill the connection to their computer with the click of a button. Dead! What's not to like about that. To say the least, even if your not IT savvy, this Orbi is the router for you.

I live in a condo with a ton of WiFi networks overlapping, additionally there's structural interference in that made my WiFi slow. With the new Orbi system all the problems are gone. Great speeds, as fast as a wired connection, full coverage around my condo and on top of it, such an easy and seamless setup. Thanks to this product I retired my apple routers and really use the full potential of the high speed internet I pay for.
