As broadband speeds continue to increase, with the roll-out of Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) networks, the Wi-Fi router supplied by broadband providers is increasingly the weakest link for most home networks. Orbi provides Wi-Fi 6 and multiple Wi-Fi points to dramatically improve performance of Wi-Fi 5 routers supplied by broadband providers While expert users and those looking to maximise performance will be pleased that the satellite units can be connected to the router via Ethernet cables, tweaking options (to change Wi-Fi radio channels, for example) are limited so we would still point expert users towards products that provide more control. Users looking for a completely wireless (mesh) solution and not looking to tweak settings (such as Wi-Fi channels) will love Orbi and its simplicity. ![]() By default, the Orbi system uses a mesh wireless system where the satellite units connect to the router using a Wi-Fi connection, so no Ethernet cables are required to connect the satellites, making it an extremely easy system to install. The NETGEAR Orbi system is clearly targeted at users who want an easy-to-set-up solution using the Orbi mobile app – and delivers the latest Wi-Fi 6 functionality and boosted Wi-Fi coverage with additional satellite units. Here is our review of the modestly priced 3-pack NETGEAR Orbi Wi-Fi 6 system, which does just that for less than £500. Boosting Wi-Fi coverage and upgrading to the latest Wi-Fi 6 technology represent the best way that many broadband users can improve their home broadband network and significantly upgrade the Wi-Fi 5 router provided by their broadband provider. ![]()
