Orbi 770 Series

Avoid Netgear at all costs. They appear to be incapable of getting the firmware right for their WiFi 7 units. I got an Orbi 770 and gave up. I went back to Eero with the Pro 7. Back to stable WiFi.

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

Just changed over from a orbi 770 with two satellites to a Eero Max 7 with an extra satellite. I never really dealt with support. Honestly I it used to be pretty good. Running Xfinity 1gig service. I started running into issues with updates. Lots of drops throughout the house. I have switched over t

The latest update solved all my 770 issues with disconnects. Orbi’s are weird.

My only wish would be more settings in the web UI. I make use of the IoT channel but it doesn’t have a separate vlan, which kind

I had this same issue on my Orbi 770 system. I provided extensive proof of the hourly lag / latency / packet loss spikes to Netgear engineering directly and never heard back. They're a fucking joke. Edit: oh haha we already know each other. I've since switched to Eero Max 7 and then they broke their

I've been from Google Nest 6E -> Orbi 770 (Wi-Fi 7) -> Eero Max 7 + Outdoor 7 -> adding a UniFi UCG-MAX as my gateway -> UCG-Fiber and XG switching core -> then full UniFi APs too after an Eero firmware update literally broke AP selection and performance for critical stuff like my remote cameras and
