An excellent practical review in a typical home environment. This is the kind I prefer to see and thank you for sharing.
Thank you
Awesome review and details given. Very helpful thanks!
Nice review and the dogs won me over :)
Cute pups. I REALLY love the framed pic of your late canine companion.
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for the great review ... them Orbi sound very well made and robust if the old ones have lasted that long
Great system, but only needed if you have Gigabit Internet. I had this set from Costco, I sold it & upgraded to AX6000 due to getting a 2Gigabit plan. These & the Asus XT8 are great buys if you have Gigabit. Nice review..
Just a FYI when doing your speed tests you can set your server your pinging so you don’t get different readings every time. Som servers could be having issues and some could be not as congested. I noticed that in your video. Good video though been looking to change to WiFi 6. Currently have the Google WiFi points and have worked great. Google hasn’t really put out any update of coming out with a WiFi 6 product so looking into other Companies providing a WiFi 6 product.
Great review, I just purchased this on Friday and have to say that I'm impressed. This was a good deal. I did have some issues with one of the satellites connecting, but was able to get that resolved. Hopefully that was not a foreshadowing.
How is it working for you now? Still solid, or more issues with one of the satellites?
@@cliffyboy76 They work great now! ive had them for just a little over 3 months and have to say this was the best investment! I highly recommend these Thank you again!
Great review, got 1 question. Did the power supplies on the original Orbi fit the new AX4200?
Nice review. I'm thinking of getting these next week. So you still recommend them? Can you dedicate components to take primary with the app.
Did you get it and if yes how do you like it? Thank you
Will it work with more devices if I have 4 satellites connected ? Thanks v much
Do you know how to access to the External Storage (External Hard Disk) plugged in the USB port of the AX4200 via local network, mobile phone and remote access?
The problem is that most devices only have 2 antenna, which cuts down on potential top speeds.
Have you upgraded to the new modem from xfinity with 6E
Just ordered my rbk752 .. Lets see how it functions
Orbi has a modem/router option CBK752. Why didn't you buy that model instead of having a separate modem?
Did you make sure you were still connected to the AP you moved closest to? Apple devices sometimes have trouble roaming ap to ap.
Is that Malibu thing on the desk a keyboard mat?
What micro SIM card carrier did you use? I’m using T mobile but it’s not working.
We switched from an arris 7400 to this and and netgear 1000 Modem and our speed test on wifi went from 24Mbps to 298Mbps with no change of our internet. I even tested the speed with 3 TV’s, 4 phones and countless little things connected. Should have upgraded a long time ago.
We have Cox 250Mbps service. There is no difference between lan cable or Wifi.
Its $379 now at costco, for those who wants to buy it.
Did you delete the Orbi app on your phone and install a fresh copy prior to plugging in your new system? Also...did you change the WiFi SSID/Password or leave it the same as it was?
I verified the app was the current version that I had installed. I use the same app just do new orbi setup....and used the same SSID. By not changing your SSID or WPA2 password all devices connect to the new orbi
Great review and very beautiful house :))))
Just wanted to know if you were connected with normal Wifi connection or with 5G? In my existing Wifi router, if I connect with normal Wifi connection of router it gives me 50 MBps downloading but when I connect with 5g connection of router, it gives downloading of 250 MBps as my connection is 250 MBps.
In Orbi, will it give 500 MBps with the normal wifi connectivity as if my connection is 500 MBps?
Thank you. Phone is Connecting via wifi6 . Looking up in the Orbi connection manager it shows Connection type 5G. Speed 741Mbps down & 40Mbps upload
Hi there, Thanks for the review. Just wondering if you're still happy with your set up? No reliability issue or dead zones? Thanks very much
Thank you... yes, we are very happy with this new setup... much faster than our older orbis
@@DinkGear Thanks a lot!!! Much appreciated! Take care!
@@DinkGear you should keep them clear of obstruction it always best to put your router in a open space
@@DinkGear do you have a wifi 6 device it actually makes a difference and I found the range to be actually good compare to what I heard ax1500 router and g3100
@@chriswright8074 yes, my galaxy s21 ultra is wifi 6. However my entire house has no dead spots... even front yard and backyard have great signal. I stream 4k outside with no issues
if my IPS provides 300MBS DW/UP. is it worth it to upgrade from wifi 5 to wifi 6? I mean I have a Linksys Velop WH Mesh System so far so good. About 30 devices connected to it. Some old devices like the iPads, security camaras, laptops, pc, the switch, firestick 4k are all running on WIFI 5. So in my opinion is not worth it. Unless your router crab out.
BTW I see you going from room to room and testing your wifi speed. Are you sure you switch to the other Extender or you still picking up the signal from your previous Extender.
For me if I walk from a room to another room it will switch to the 2G speed since it 2g signal extend farther than 5G. Therefore I separated the 5G and the 2G on two different names so it will not automatically do that. Wonder if is the same for WIFI 6. I use this app call Wifi Signal Strength, it will tell you how strong your wifi signal is and if you are connected to a 5g or 2g Signal.
Nice video.. btw it's on Sale now at Costco you can get it for 399.
with older devices I would stick with the W5... some of the older devices cant accept the higher speeds regardless.
Yes, when I went room to room I reset the wifi to the current location on my device.
Would you still recommend rbr40 still in 2021 or is it outdated?
RBK40 was no slouch, but The newer version is much better
Hi, can you please check the adapter and see if this device is 110v only or does it support Asian input of 220v as well?
Cant bring my network down just yet to check... but it states online in package includes: Three (3) 12V/2.5A power adapters. I will check shortly
Just checked with Netgear... they stated: North America: 120V, 60 Hz, input
UK, Australia: 240V, 50 Hz, input
Europe: 230V, 50 Hz, input
All regions (output): 12V, 3.5A DC output
However No, it is not dual voltage. Sorry, it would not operate on that input
I must have a faulty unit. Not getting near to those speeds with Verizon 1GB plan.
How large is your home , I have 2 story 1900sqft , but with garage and mancave off the side of the home is around 2600sqft
Almost 3100 Sq ft
What level or type of internet service are you using with the AX4200? We have the older version with the RBR40 router that we’ve been using on AT&T fiber optic. It’s worked well because we’re in a single level house.
We are using Xfinity. It has been updated since this video was posted. We now have Gigabit Internet Plan Download speeds: up to 1200 Mbps
Upload speeds: up to 35 Mbps. Just checked Wireless speeds are 712 down and 42 up.
@@DinkGear ok thanks. I just tested on our old system with the RBR40 and it’s at 406 download and 198 on upload. Really never had much of an issue with this model but it’s a few years old and we couldn’t pass up that price at Costco. We’ll see what happens…🤷🏻♂️
So this is how it turned out…
Old Orbi RBR40
Old download speed: 406Mbps
Old upload speed: 198Mbps
New Orbi RBK753S
New download speed: 535Mbps
New upload speed: 350Mbps
Bit of a lateral move maybe but I like it.
What is your internet provided speed. Mines is 1200 mbps. Will the ax4200 allow me to get the maximum performance out of the 1200 mbps or should should I get the ax6000?
Well its supposed to be 1200 mbps from ISP... but getting about 980. Just checked wireless speed its at 844 mbps to 960. Orbi states this version (RBK753) is Best for Internet Provider Speed Tier up to 2.0Gbps / for 40+ devices.
2.4GHz (600Mbps†) + 5GHz (1200Mbps†) for WiFi devices to connect to the Internet. 5GHz (2400Mbps†) dedicated WiFi link for faster data connections between Orbi Router and Orbi Satellite
Got 938.41 from my last speed test
nice place
So can the satilites connect to say an Xbox via ethernet and still have the same Wi-Fi connection from the main Router?
Each satellite also has ethernet ports on the back as well.
Yes I have the same one as him and my speed's or a little over 1 gigabit for my Xbox and PS5. It's very good highly recommend!!
I have nothing but problems with my orbi750. all my computers and phones constantly lose connection, one satellite always has a blue light on it, the last update they made locked me out of my system, and the best part is they want you to pay them to fix the problems.
Sorry to hear that. According to Netgear, If your Orbi satellite ring is solid blue for 90-180 seconds, the connection between your Orbi router and satellite is good. I would delete app and re-install from the beginning again.
I can't believe you don't have fiber in a place like that.
the real question is whats your camera set up looks good
You referring to the security cameras? I have a video on it going up soon if thats what you were wondering???
@@DinkGear ok cool definitely gonna watch that
I setup my Orbi 3 weeks ago Im not getting anywhere near what your speed tests are 40ms DL and 5.64 Upload Guess I need to call support and find out why
assuming you mean 40Mb?
What speeds does your ISP provide?
Are you joking? It depends on your ISP plan, and not the wifi router and satellite
hey thats crazy how much do you pay the wifi provider i pay 50 dollor every month and my wifi speed is 4 mps download and 12 mps upload
if i have such internet speed i would have been on top of the world
Hard to say... it's a bundle with phone, cable and internet. Guessing $50-75 just for internet
What’s your board band speed?
950 Mbps this morning at the modem with 845 Mbps over wifi. I have updated my modem since this video was done
Not much of an improvement on the main node.
Wait!…. Does America have different speed test reading compared to Australia 🫣 when I do my speed tests I get 97mbps downloads and 17.2mbps upload. I didn’t even know it could exceed the 100 on the speed test 🤯 would be amazing to have internet that fast
