A seriously fast mesh Wi-Fi system for larger homes and businesses
Cliff Joseph
Netgear Orbi RBK863

£1,099.99 FROM netgear.com FEATURES Three-piece mesh Wi-Fi system, tri-band Wi-Fi 6, Up to 6Gbps Wi-Fi, 1x 10Gbps Ethernet (WAN) port, 4x Gigabit Ethernet (LAN) ports

The RBK863 works hard to earn its keep, offering tri-band Wi-Fi 6 with a top speed of 6.0Gbps

Netgear’s Orbi mesh Wi-Fi systems aren’t cheap, but their strong performance and easy-to-use app makes them a popular choice for homes and businesses that need to extend the reach of their Wi-Fi networks.

The latest addition to the Orbi range actually gives you two options. Smaller homes of up to 2,700sq ft can just buy a single Orbi router (RBR860) for £449.99; larger homes, of up to 8,000sq ft, can step up to this three-piece mesh system (RBK863), which includes a router and two additional ‘satellites’ for a rather hefty price of £1,099.99.
