Beginners Simple Internet Router Home Use

I bought this router to load balance the internet from two ISPs in my home. The configuration and set up was easy and there are plenty of tutorials on the internet to help you. In the end, I was able to configure the router and my internet speed has increased quite a bit with this new setup. Very happy with this purchase.

Great router. Granular setup when logged into rather than using an app. Internet speed on home network tripled. The old wifi 5 router could not absorb the bandwidth being provided by the cable company. Buy it. You won't be disappointed!

I upgraded my out of date cable and separate router for my home office to the Netgear Orbi and am very pleased. The upgrade was excellent and very easy, the app makes the install process quick and I did have to call my ISP to register the new cable modem router combo but after that I was right back online. I give this 5 stars because the internet and wifi connection are great with very good range, no more slow internet or getting booted from websites and install was easy using the app by following the steps.

Very happy with this product and used with Netgear router for internet to my home and smart TV. Saving money with this product and my smart tv gets all I need without outside internet renting me their boxes or constantly increasing monthly fees and trying to sell me unneeded packages. Will go for the all in one unit next time when I at some point replace so modem and router all in one piece of equipment with Netgear. Very happy with my purchase and highly recommended.

I have Synology NAS devices and thus expected the management software on this router to be good but it is even better than I expected. For example I can control (block) internet access to individual connected devices such as smart-plugs that I don't want phoning home to China and sending my Wi-Fi password. Can also prioritize some devices to get more bandwidth when the network is busy. So TVs don't buffer streaming video just because somebody else is downloading a big file. Configuration options are good for home or office use and includes security features I've never seen on other routers other than the Firewalla network firewall hardware. Can't comment on Wi-Fi range except that it works great everywhere in my apartment. I really appreciate that it has a tiny physical footprint -- unlike so many newer routers it takes up very little space on my office shelf. I don't have a backup internet provider so I can't use the feature that will switch to another internet source when the primary one fails. Even lets you configure an in-router VPN with free licenses for remote connections to your network. Bottom line it provides more than I need right now but has features I may want in the future, so I'm happy.

Had to upgrade the cable modem for home internet service. Got this because I already have a BlackHawk Router and these two work great together. Set-up was super easy and everything was working within minutes.

This is the best router I have owned. Installation was very simple, I had no problems. And it increased my internet and intranet speeds. I am very happy with it.

I USE MY MACBOOK PRO AT HOME FOR EMAIL, INTERNET, PHOTOS, ETC. APPLE PRODUCTS ARE SO EASY TO USE AND NO VIRUSES. WHEN I HAD A PC MANY YEARS AGO I WAS CONSTANTLY GETTING VIRUSES. PLUS THE SUPPORT FROM APPLE IS OUTSTANDING. APPLE PRODUCTS COST A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY...WHICH IS PRECISELY WHY B & H IS SUCH A WONDERFUL PLACE TO BUY FROM!

Use to connect my laptop to the internet when working from home. Use to connect my PS3 to the internet to stream baseball games.

Super simple to install and configure - so much better than any "whole home Wi-Fi" from your Internet provider.
