Seamless setup
So far the easiest router setup. Have had it for a week and I have no drops on connectivity, no slowing while streaming. Easy to use app with vulnerability check ups of all my connected devices. Bit expensive but so far it has been worth it now that the home has stable internet.

Orbi 970 mesh
I recently purchased the NETGEAR Orbi 970 Series Quad-Band WiFi 7 Mesh System. I am absolutely amazed at how well this system works. The speed is incredible, and the range is amazing. I have never had a wireless system that works this well. :-)

The range is excellent
I had to have several range extenders all over the house to get rid of dead zones. With only 1 satellite and the main router I get better range and WiFi speeds all over the house and most of the yard.

Better than Expected
I replaced an eero 6e system with the Orbi. My expectations were high on speed and reach. I had no idea that the Orbi would be this good. I now love to show my friends and family my speed tests. All expectations were exceeded.

Very powerful
I know this wasn't the least expensive route to get max wi-fi coverage but we no longer have any dead spots. We don't have a huge house (~4,000 sq. ft.) but a lot of walls and angles. I also like the device management details in the Orbi app that allows me to see the link rate of each device.

Fast And Powerful - Future Proof!
I upgraded from an Orbi 850 to the Orbi 970 series because I also upgraded my internet service to 2.5 gigs. The 970 has the ability to fully take advantage of these high speeds across the entire local network. Installation was a breeze with the updated app and implementing port forwarding, IOT networks and the like is mega simple. I had retained my original WIFI SSID and password, so all devices automatically followed into the upgraded network. Couldn't be more simple! I previously had three satellites and one router with the Orbi RBK853. With the 970, I found greater physical coverage with only two satellites. I am using one satellite in a wireless backhaul and the other in wired, and both are rock-solid maximizing my 2.5 gig internet connection. If you have above a 1gig connection, do yourself a favor and future-proof not just your network, but also your WIFI. It is elegantly simple and just works.

Outstanding Router!
I love this router. The speed is incredible and I have connection for my whole house. The setup was simple and instructions were very clear. I also love the fact that I can add more hubs if I need more coverage, but I am completely satisfied with the coverage and speed. I would highly recommend this router!

Best WiFi decision in a while!
After moving into a new home I found nothing was working with the current WiFi setup. Paying for fiber internet and only getting 20mbps, I finally had it! I made the plunge after some research on the Orbi system and it fixed everything!

Great Mesh System
This thing is a rock star - super easy to get up and running, no more dead zones or drops. It’s expensive, but worth it as I won’t have to worry about upgrading it for a long time.

Way better than 960
Upgraded from 960 with two satellites and coverage in a large house is significantly better than before.
