Orbi 770 Series

Yes. I had that same issue.! And I have a couple of solutions for you! I even contacted Sonos support and spent hours to find this. So if you have a Sonos arc or surround system, the only good way to get it to work is too hard wire ethernet to the system. You only need one to be connected and the re

My Orbi 770 with 3 nodes covers my 3200 sq ft house without issue. I get 1.4-1.8Gbps at every corner of my house.

I would suggest either the Asus RT-BE96U if you can get by with a single device (if the modem will be located in the middle of your home and you are at about no larger than 2,000 square feet), or the Netgear Orbi 770 series if your space is larger and/or the modem is in the far corner of the home wh

I did this with Orbi 770. Didn't solve any of the reliability issues with the Orbi system for me. Then built out a full UniFi XG switching core too. Everything worked fine on that and solved the backhaul hourly lag / packet loss when fully wired. Didn't help with the wireless implications though, of

Lol that solved my problem too. Upgraded to the Orbi 770 mesh 2 weeks ago. I'm actually getting the speeds I'm paying for all throughout the house, device roaming works pretty well and not a single disconnection. All of my headaches and frustrations are gone. Should've done this a while ago.

Honestly, with my new Orbi 770, the wireless backhaul works wonderfully. Yes, ideally I wish I could have it wired. But it has a dual 5 & 6 Ghz wireless backhaul and I barely have any slowdown when connected to a satellite ( less than 2%). Device roaming works pretty well too.

You'll be happy to find out that the migration is easy. We were a Netgear house for years, then flipped to Asus and AImesh for a couple of years, which eventually had random recurring failures I couldn't tolerate being a remote leader with remote teams. My guess was ultimately a race condition becau

I’ve been running the orbi 770 latest firmware with wired backhaul with zero issues and would highly recommend them

I'd go with the TP-Link Deco XE70 Pro, it offers the best balance of performance, future-proofing (Wi-Fi 6E), and value. Great for large homes with lots of devices, and supports multi-gig speeds if your fiber plan is fast. Better value than Orbi 770 unless you really need Wi-Fi 7.

You're not going to find anything that has 2.5gb ports that isn't expensive, though that's somewhat subjective. I have an Orbi 770 series that does a great job and support 2.5gb across all ports.
