Ratings and reviews

I would give this 0 stars if I could. The app is laggy, the highly overpriced orbi system doesn't even work that well, the UI is finicky and uninformative. The main complaint I have is the TERRIBLE controls for WiFi. Basically, turning off a device, usually for parental controls, makes it impossible to turn back on. Also, lots of other random devices just get connected to our network?? Anyway, would not recommend, mostly due to the very poorly made app, even if the speeds are good.

I absolutely love this system, COMPLETELY worth the money up front. I have had no issues since purchasing the Orbi system and have had no lag or latency with our internet. my 14 year old has had no complaints (yelling) about having no internet and enjoys the ability to have 4k streaming anywhere in the house, all while keeping him secure. If I had the money, I would have upgraded my system. Keep up the work because from the ability, security and ease of access this system is amazing.

Overall the app does the basic for the simple user but to do other things like block website or really make any sort of adjustments to your Wi-Fi you'll have to pay for a subscription. I remember when these features were on every Netgear unit for free but now there is a pay wall. I hate what this subscription model has done to everything that once was free.
