NETGEAR'S ORBI systems have carved out a niche at the top of the mesh router market with premium products and high-end price tags. The RBK763 three-pack [two satellites and a router) follows this route by being a bit more expensive than its WiFi 6 competition, but does it justify that with a performance to match?
This three-pod system should offer enough coverage for most households at 7,500 sq. ft. These are relatively big and bulky devices at 8.3 x 6.6 x 2.5in, so not as compact as the Amazon Eero Pro, though this size does help with signal performance. The satellites may look nice, but they aren't the easiest pieces of kit to hide away in your home.
The Orbi phone app is all that's needed and we were up and running in around 15 minutes or a little more if a firmware update is required. The app gives plenty of guidance about where to place the satellites and everything is straightforward and easy to follow.
