NETGEAR RBS750

Very easy to setup and works perfectly. I have stable and fast WiFi throughout my house. I purchased this set to replace my earlier Orbi which I had for several years. I am getting the full advertised throughput of my 2.5gig fibre internet connection (using PPPoE) via Ethernet to my PC and 1.5gig+ throughput via Wi-Fi from the router and satellites. Don't let the lack of a dedicated wireless backhaul worry you, it's not really needed with WiFi 7 and MLO which combines the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands intelligently. Don't let any negative reviews put you off. This really is an excellent system.

Title: Great start Description: I purchased the Netgear Orbi 770 2-pack to replace a 2 year old Linksys mesh system that just wasn't working correctly anymore. To be honest, I actually tried the Amazon Eero product first as the review I'd read said is was easier to set up with a better app. However, the Eero would not work with my Nokia ONT box for some reason so went back and I replaced it with the Orbi. The Orbi units are a funny shape. They look round from the front but are teardrop shaped tapering off at the back. This meant they only just fit on the shelves where I need them but that's a minor thing. The setup was incredibly easy and everything worked first time. The app is very good and on a par with the Eero one, so the reviews I'd read must have been before this app was released. I also like the fact that there is an advanced setup option if you access the router through a web browser. Overall, the Orbi system has made a good start in the house and the speed increase and stability improvements over my old Linksys system are very noticeable.

I bought this Orbi WiFi 6 system to upgrade my Google WiFi mesh network because I noticed that WiFi speeds were only half as fast upstairs, where my partner works. The price of £700 for the top of the range 852s felt far too expensive but the sale price for the 752s of £325 on Amazon was much more reasonable and realistic. The router and satellite arrived well packaged and the instructions seemed simple enough: download the Orbi app and follow the instructions. However I found in practice there were three set-up challenges: First It was a pain getting Orbi to work with my Virgin Media Hub 3 in model only mode. I checked the Virgin router with an ethernet cable to my laptop to ensure there was internet access through port 1 and there was. I checked that Orbi was set to DHCP and it was. But half way though the set-up process the Orbi said it no longer had internet access. Fortunately I read online about rebooting the Virgin Hub and then reconnecting the Orbi when restarted and this seemed to work. Firmware updates were then unnecessarily slow and it stalled three times with the result that I had to restart the process. Secondly and bizarrely I had major difficulties setting a strong password for my Orbi account. I tried multiple combinations of letter, numbers, symbols etc per the Orbi instructions but they wouldn't work and there was no error message that explained why. Still I eventually found a slightly shorter combination which it accepted. It then prompted me to plug in the satellite device but had problems initially locating it through the app - even though I was stood only a few feet away from it. Anyhow it eventually detected the satellite and following the reboot of the VM Hub followed by a reboot of the Orbi router it started working perfectly. I replicated my old network name (SSID) and password to allow existing devices connect seamlessly. After it settled in I've noticed range is considerably better - by at least 20-30 feet - and speed is 50% faster upstairs with almost the same broadband speed as downstairs. Connection speed is regularly at 370 Mbps download - the maximum for my current broadband. So blistering fast strong connection, which is ultimately what I wanted them for. My only other comment is that they are rather large and blob/fin-like relative to the much sleeker and less obstrusive Google WiFi points. Much harder to hide or blend into a room. But clearly that's the price for a more powerful piece of kit. So great result in the end... but I hope I don't have to reinstall these for a long time!

First class product backed by first class customer support. I now have full coverage throughout my home in all areas after years of dropped and slow connections. Looks good, easy to install with the assistance of the instructions, U Tube videos and customer support. Tip - check with your ISP for any settings you may need to change before you start. Once installed ensure you enable IoT WiFi in the WiFi settings to get the best coverage for your smart devices and you are good to go. Lightening fast no dropped connections and no stress.

Exceeds all expectations Title: Exceeds all expectations Description: From a layman’s viewpoint: A quality product that is simple to set up and deploy. The wi-fi reliable and fast, removing the need for less reliable wi-fi extenders and powerline adaptors. Older and slower legacy devices are supported. This mesh system seems expensive at first sight but wish I had taken this or similar soution much earlier.

I really really wanted this to be good. The setup was typical Netgear, took too long, but was reliable. It failed to connect to my internet port (LAN port to ISP equipment) at the desired speed. It would only negotiate 100mbps, the Nighthawk I have always negotiated 1000mbps. If I piggy backed on my Nighthawk, or placed a 1gbps switch in between the router and the wall socket it was fine on negotiated speed. Then discovered if I used a cat 6 cable (it’s provided with a 5e) it worked. Then the next issue become apparently, unstable connections. I would get intermittent freezes on the network, as if sessions were being disconnected or packets being dropped. I returned the first device, the second one behaved exactly the same. I spent hours on the phone with Netgear support and had a case raised to Level 3 engineering but there was no resolution even after 6 weeks. I could tell this device had potential though, the UI was quicker than most routers I’ve ever used and the features were really good. Until Netgear get a much better version of the software these things are basically useless.

A pesar de los numerosos comentarios negativos que hablan de la caida o cortes del wifi de este mesh me aventuré e instalé el Orbi RBR752 para sustituir el Mitrastar de Movistar/O2 y los cambios han sido inmediatos: Cobertura total en casa de dos plantas, sin caídas desde que lo configuré, y velocidad casi calcada a lo contratado. La conexión entre router (planta baja) y satélite (planta alta donde finaliza escalera) la he hecho de manera inalámbrica (6 metros, no hay visión directa pero si hueco de escalera). Pero esto no fue así desde un principio pues a pesar de realizar la instalación recomendada por el fabricante a los pocos días empecé a tener los problemas de conectividad wifi relatados en otros comentarios. Cómo he conseguido finalmente un funcionamiento correcto (pasos rápidos): A) Mitrastar en modo puente (monopuesto): 1. Desactivar NAT, DHCP, Wi-Fi, firewall y UPnP (unas configuraciones en básico y otras en avanzado) 2. Mantengo activado NAT Loopback y “Filtrado NAT seguro”; IGMP proxy y SIP ALG desactivados. No uso tv ni telefono fijo en O2 3. Cable desde el puerto LAN 1 del Mitrastar directo al puerto WAN del Orbi. B) Orbi como Router principal, gestiona toda la red: 1. Conexión PPPoE con los datos genéricos de Movistar usuario y contraseña: adslppp@telefonicanetpa y adslppp. 2. UPnP activo (para juegos y streaming), coexistencia 2,4 / 5 GHz sin separar SSIDs. Resultado Eliminando asi duplicidades (NAT, DHCP,...) los dispositivos hacen roaming a la perfección y no hay micro-cortes ni caidas de wifi ni lag en partidas online. Tanto el router principal como el satelite me dan la velocidad contratada (en mi caso 300mb simétricos) Conclusión Si sufres cortes de Wi-Fi con el Orbi la solución está en una buena configuración del router de la compañía y del propio Orbi. Bien es cierto que esto no está al alcance de cualquier usuario pero tan facil como preguntar a la ia

Kanon för mig en perfekt produkt, snabb leverans och bra pris.

After more than a year of having orbi router and 2 satellites, I can say the worst wifi router experience. HW keeps on hanging. Software doesn't recognize login, and I regularly need to reset. The app keeps kicking me out saying forbidden access. Multiple login accounts to manage. Netgear website doesn't recognize my order (purchased from amazon). Support ignore my request to associate my device. Security is payed with annual subscription. Unfortunately the entire experience is bad. Absolutely rip off.

Great mesh wifi system. Covers my entire villa. Easy to setup and use. Recommended.
