Seriously Disappointed
I replaced the RBR40 with this and it's a horrible. The signal isn't as good and trying to change the password is a pain in the ###. I've owned several Netgear products and this is by far the worst.

Help!
This purchase replaced a previous Orbi system. Compared to the old system, this was more difficult to install. I used the app as instructed. Could not get two computers, two printers and cell phone to work with this new system. After hours on the phone with support, systems now operational.

Easy setup, great signal
I set it up in an hour. Easy. Great signal throughout, and our HP printer, which had become largely unavailable, is back. Thanks. Worth every penny!

Great product, worth the price
Very easy to install, no detailed configuration necessary. And results in a really fast network, even with a lot of devices connected . Very happy with this.

Range and Reliability

Great system!
We had a mesh system, but the technology outgrew it. This system brought us back up-to-speed! Very easy to set-up and has improved usage throughout the house.

Impressive performance
I don't think I can tell anything that's not been written about it.
The range is very good. The amount of networks in the area is probably diminishing too.
I am not gonna pull a star for this because I don't think it would make any difference, but I would've gone a step further to the rb860 and have WiFi 6e with it. A little disappointing that its not possible for...

Great mesh system that was easy to setup
this is an upgrade from a nighthawk unit. We needed to switch to a mesh system because our older system could not reach the length of our house. We switched and now we can cover the whole house with out any issues streaming.

Orbi 850 is Fantastic
Easy to install. Replaced an older Nighthawk router with a system speed test as high as 120 - The Orbi RBK853 Model 850 has a speed test of 470. Unbelievable!

6 months of ownership
I have many computers,notebooks, tablets, kindles, both Apple and Android phones, and tvs, and smart things connected. App is very good and have done many firmware updates. Once you understand how app works and set up backhand it is very reliable. Best on market.
Had first generation but this is MUCH better.
Yes it is high price but it works as adv.
