Review: Easy setup and worth every penny - My garage is 100’ away and the WiFi is awesome! I have a 3 story beach home and the WiFi is the same regardless of where you are in the house. Was easy to set up and works great!
Review: Ease of Use but lacks so many features & promises - Lived in a concrete apartment 3 bed rooms. I needed all 3 routers to cover this 1200 sqft home and it still had deadzones. Obviously that's concrete. My real issue is with Mesh Wifi period, not just Netgear. Device Steering is always automatic and it never works. You will always have trouble with devices connecting to the further router & choosing 5Ghz when the device is far away. Stuff like this could be easily solved for us technical people by allowing us to steer devices because we tend to have a couple devices specifically our own that we would like to keep on a set router & a set ghz. I used to own the LinkSys Velops for a couple of year, the connection range is better but the app is more simplified than theirs. Check for other mesh systems that maybe offer better device steering because it's non existent on the orbi's. Atleast Linksys tries.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does Orbi support ethernet back haul  between the base station and satellites?**
A: As of April/late May 2018, the latest firmware 2.1.4.10 has not only broken ethernet backhaul, but it also takes down your entire network such that no device can connect to the Internet if you leave the ethernet cable connected to satellite.  There is no way to disable auto update of the firmware.  I have had an open support case for nearly one month and have spent many, many hours in that time trying to troubleshoot.   Never had this kind of issue with my Airport Extremes, which is no longer made, so I thought Orbi would be a good replacement given all the positive professional reviews.   See people's issues here:  https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/Known-Issues-Orbi-Firmware-V-2-1-4-10-update/td-p/1558346

**Q: How is orbi different from google wifi or eero?**
A: Orbi One of the big differences is dedicated tri-band Wi-Fi for faster speeds! You can find a detailed explanation of the differences on our homepage: https://www.netgear.com/landings/orbi-wins/

**Q: Is it 100 - 240 Volts?**
A: It all depends upon where you buy it. In the USA it is supplied with 115V power supplies one for the router and one each for the Satellites, this is OK of you live in the USA or somewhere where they have 115v power in the homes. If you live in the UK buy them in the UK they come with 240v power supplies, so they are OK for the UK, but come with the UK 3 pin sockets. In Europe theu come with two pin European adaptors suitable for Europes 220 v power.
The problem is if you buy it in one country and want to run it in another. Netgear do not sell the power supplies separately. I bought mine in the Black Friday sales in the USA and brought them to the UK. I had to buy power supplies from Germany that were suitable for 240 volts and adaptors for continental to UK sockets. Be careful, you ned to know exactly what the pin size is the pin lengt and the pin inside and pouside diameters. To save you hassle you need Plug-in power supply unit, 12 V, 1000 mA, with -ve polarity on the outside  The pin that plugs into the ORBI should be 5.5mm outside diameter and the socket 2.5mm inside diam. The length of the pin is 12mm.

**Q: Can systems like these be linked in a line? I mean instead of the satellite units having to be within range of the router, can I daiseychain them out?**
A: Regardless if Orbi can be daisy chained with wired cable ... if you can daisy chain routers, why not just set up an AP system.  If you can hard wired the AP, there is no need for Orbi and you get much better performance.  As to daisy chaining Orbi, yes, you can do that.. but that defeats the purpose of using Orbi.  The main technological advantage with Orbi is its ability to have a 3rd backhaul channel through wireless connection.  If you can using hard wired... just go with the proven WLAN AP (http://pigtail.azurewebsites.net/tp-link/large-building.PNG)... my organization use it to deploy over 200 wireless devices on the same lan without much overhead degradation.

*by M***S on September 19, 2023*

### ⭐ Warranty issue?
*by A***R on September 18, 2024*

This product worked pretty well. Occaisionally I would have to do the rotating reset dance between the MODEM and the Router and the two sats. But now the Satellites keep disconnecting randomly. Calling to get them replaced (My warranty is up in a couple weeks) is impossible. You call the company and they want you to pay for the technical support contract. Trying to get an RMA is hard blocked unless you want to pay. I did the manual firmware update. That allowed me to connect to the Satellites, but they stil have the intermittent connection issue. Buyer beware. Update. The firmware for the satellites doesn't work. The company knows it doesn't work. And that's the quality you can expect. I'll never purchace Netgear products again.
