Title: This product is worth purchasing.
Review: I needed something to provide a strong signal throughout my home and around my property. This is the second Orbi system I have purchased and I have been very happy with the performance and range. The signal reaches my detached garage which is over 200 feet from the house. It's strong enough to reach my security cameras there.

Title: Stay Away from the Frustration
Review: Foremost, go with TP-Link Deko, and do not by Orbi. TP Link has MUCH better app for set up, much easier to manage, and no issues.Orbi was a nightmare from powering it on. Seemed great, love to have the option of a app interface. Power up, follow instructions to a "T", and won't get past the "rename WiFi" step. Hard reset to move forward. Same. Hard Reset. Same. On the 4th time, I finally had enough, and took a swig of my Four Roses to give me the courage to call Tech Support. 1.75 hours later, I had WiFi, but couldn't use my old network name. You know how miserable it is to reconnect 103 devices throughout a 4200 sq ft home?If only that was the end of the issues. Dropped signals. Satellites not connecting. Orbi not issuing devices an IP address. I work from home (in the IT field). This system was IMPOSSIBLE to live with. After 2 months, I trashed it and bought a TP Link system. I recommend you do the same.

Title: Worth every penny! Best network solution for our large home with thicker walls.
Review: The biggest thing to know âif tech isnât your first language â you plug the main Orbi into your existing router box thatâs plugged into the wall. The other Orbi is its âsatelliteâ and helps the internet speed and connection on different floors or areas of the house. This is the WiFi part.This was the easiest home network system Iâve ever hooked up. Iâm astounded signal strength is maintained everyone at max right now. The app made it super easy. Signal is FANTASTIC and we have a 4,000+ sq foot house. Only using 2 and strong from corner to corner.I got it all set up within an hour. I love being able to rename the network, label all the connected devices, and control my kidâs individual devices to limit screen time. Thereâs a pause button next to each connected device listed in the app.If you have a garage hooked to this network be sure to do the travel limits on the door after you change to the new network in your garage door opener app (itâs a safety feature)Then it will connect. This was the only hurdle I encountered. And found results with Reddit and a quick YouTube video.Netgear, Iâm super happy so far. Thanks for making a solid product.

Title: Some problems with setup using the app.
Review: Tried to setup using the app that had my previous system, an RBR20 active. It failed twice to properly setup the RBR760 by confusing the 2 routers. One time it quit while declaring the router was already setup. The second time it finished but when I rebooted and logged back on it again declared setup needed to be performed. Ended up using direct cable connection from my computer. That worked perfectly. Then I had a problem activating the Armor subscription. It kept failing. I failed to update the firmware because the only available was a beta. I dont like to install beta firmware on routers. After calling support and starting a claim , I found that this unit was a resale from a Costco purchase. When support was not able to help they pushed it off for 24 hours for someone else to work on. I checked the firmware notes and found that it was a patch to fix the Armor install. So I flashed all 3 units and it finally worked. Now just arguing with Support to transfer my paid Armor to the new router or cancel it on the old one. Asian and Indian support is not pleasant to deal with. Waiting another 24 hours to get another phone number by email to call and discuss again. When it works its great, when it needs support its a pain to say the least. When working the RBR760 is a great router.

Title: Great router!
Review: We put these ORBIs in last week and so far their performance is great. We have steady, strong WIFI throughout the house.We put the main unit downstairs where the fiber optic comes in the house. And the booster unit is upstairs to serve our needs there with a strong WIFI signal.I would recommend and buy this product again.

Title: Excellent Product! Makes Security, Installation, and Maintenance Easy
Review: As someone who has been playing and working with computers and technology in various ways for over 20 years. I'd highly recommend the Orbi router and satellite system for anyone looking to expand their wifi network.I was a bit confused during installation. But, that's what Google is for XD. After installing once I'm confident that maintenance of my home network will be much easier with the new Orbi setup and in place.The app makes it extremely easy to view devices connected to the network. not only that it quickly shows which router or satellite each device is currently connected to. The Bitdefender security runs quietly in the background. I take the security of our network seriously, and have been using Bitdefender products on our devices for years now. With it running on the Orbi network, it automatically runs hardware scans, keeps me updated on any vulnerability, makes it easy to install security applications on devices on the network, and more.It's not even been a week since installing the new network hardware. This product along with a new Nighthawk modem. But, I can already see that these new Netgear products are going to make my life a whole lot easier. I don't think I'll have to constantly reboot our network or worry about security threats any more.Netgear will always be my go to for networking needs.
