Up to 100% Faster WiFi than Google WiFi and Eero*

How does Orbi stack up against the rest?

Orbi’s sleek design and state-of-the-art technology steals the show. Orbi's Tri-Band system creates a high capacity superhighway, while other systems experience slow speeds, as you add units.

Dedicated Tri-Band

Pre-paired for easy installation

Covers more square feet with 2 devices than others do with 3

Other systems require personal information to sign up, and need more devices to cover the same amount of space that Orbi covers.

Speeds degrade as you add more units

Must have android or iOS device for installation

Fewer ethernet ports per unit

*As measured by independent testing in real-world configurations; speed will vary depending upon many factors, including network traffic, building construction, and distance from access points; see www.netgear.com/betterwifi for testing details; actual download and upload speeds may be limited by Internet speeds”.
