Can a second primary router be used instead of a satellite? I want both to have a 2.5gbps backhaul.

I just got the 6000 its coming today from amazon! I really can not wait for it to come. We have been having a lot of issues with slow speeds. We have a gb down and can’t get over 300 mbps. We live in a townhouse right next to apartments. So the router we got from cox keeps having a lot of problems.

I have just got the orbi ax 4200 with 2 satellites. It was only $399 compared to $900 for a similar setup with the one featured. Peak speeds are 760mbps over wifi at short range on wifi 6 (with 1.4gbps backhaul and link aggregation).
Speed decreases fairly quickly over range, but not lower than 200 Mbps. Main reason for 3 units rather than 2 was range to backyard, significantly better than our old 4 google wifi point setup. I was able to sell the 4 pack for $150 locally, very easily, as well.

I haven't tested extensively, but in theory, I should be able to get close to 1.4gbps wireless throughput using multiple devices connected to different satellites due to the 2.4gbps backhaul.

Strange question here, I currently have the RBR 50 and satellite. Here is the question, The soft touch plastic on the RBR 50 literally melts after about 2 years, it becomes very sticky and attracts dust like crazy. My question to you is the RBK850 just matte plastic or the awful Soft touch coating as on the previous models? Thanks

Thanks Josh 🙂

So could I hook the satilite up to an Xbox with an Ethernet cable and still have the same WI-FI connection?

[Yama_]

Can they be setup in bridge mode and if so, does the meshing work in that configuration?

[jonathangrager]

So is it like there on wifi or do you need a different company?

[NickV]

Question- if I have crappy internet now, this won’t fix that right? It’s just a router, not it’s own internet service?

[MufasaRizz]

Does it have forwarding port trigger for dvr cameras recording so i can see them on my camera app?

[damienconley]

Wait so does this replace my old WiFi completely or do I connect this to my WiFi and it improves it?

[ed]

I don’t care if netgear had something to do with this video. It’s the BEST router I’ve had in years. Fast, and it has full speeds in my whole home

[Anthony-veed]

Where I live I only get 5mb/s. Will orbi mesh increase my speed?

[kevinrich]

Thank you for your video….I ended up purchasing the Orbi brk852 but the 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz is under the same SSID and it makes it difficult for my security cameras…do you know if the guest channel be setup to 2.4? Thank you

[pranavnakate]

Is there a mesh system wherein the mesh satellite/s is/are connected to the internet through the incoming ethernet port? In our home we have ethernet ports in a few places, and I believe a satellite connected to the internet through the wire(not a dedicated wireless channel) would be more reliable than the satellite talking to main router wirelessly on a dedicated channel.

[felipebaym]

I'm positive 6 Gbps (5:11) is not achievable with this unit, specially considering 2.5 Gbps limit on the WAN port and well... the highest speed I've read about with a WiFi 6 router was around 1.5 Gbps

Ipad air 2020 has 4k 60fps video option. Can i shoot indoor You tube video with it? Then also edit it on ipad?

[CRANEREVIEWS]

They could have made it one pretty lamp! :P

[jacobdelgado]

Wait do we need our own internet provider ? How does it work ?

[mrpmj]

I have 53 devices on my network and the Netgear ax6000 is super fast in a 2 story 2600 sq foot house.
