Needs every time a rain dance...
So for this price range I am already mighty disappointed. As long as the system runs, it is a good thing, fast and stable connection. Woe you haust stupidly the flasche fuse out, or pull out the power cable of the router, or it has its days, so once a month ... because then, I at least, must pull out all Lan connections (yes must be so otherwise it does not work) modem de-energize, router and satellites at the same time de-energize, and turn on again, wait until the light of the router pulsates, only then may the modem be connected, then connect the Lan cables to the satellites.
to the satellites. If you are lucky all satellites are connected and the Lan connections work... if not repeat the procedure until the satellites are connected. If you lose a satellite once a month... start the procedure again... So i can't recommend this system! The sync button no idea what the manufacturer has thought, press the button on the satellite that is no longer connected and the sync button on the router... nothing... Lights pulsating, nothing more can press until the finger falls off... and the two devices would even have visual contact... procedure with reboot has to be done again, the satellites won't find each other otherwise... i think i'll shoot the stuff into spacePro
- If it works then stable fast connection
Contra
- Long time no more such a grottenschlechte App seen
- If he loses a satellite (1x per month) the whole system must be rebooted
Switch on, wait 5 minutes, start surfing, everywhere house/garden/neighbour
TOP product!

Excellent device
My initial situation was: large apartment equipped with Devolo adapters (1200) - in the middle was placed the router. At the respective adapters I had about 30 -60 Mbit (from 1Gbit). I replaced the Devolo adapters with 2 Orbi satellites (+Orbi router).
Now I get around five - ten times the bandwidth on the satellites and 800 Mbit on the router. I came to the Orbi Mesch router because of the excellent Digitec report by Martin Jud (https://www.digitec.ch/de...).Pro
- fast
- easy installation
- good app
Contra
- price
- no choice of access point (2.4/5ghz)

Pile of garbage
Don't buy this pile of garbage. It causes tons of problems on your network. DNS service is broken and you can't force it to assign DNS services via DCHP to clients. All DNS must go through ORBI and that service breaks down all the time. We are rebooting this pile of junk daily or even multiple times per day.
You get dropped calls, video streams and all kind of issues.
Also satellite link in the room next door is so weak, that 1 bar in 3G mobile phone is faster.
Trashing this thing now and looking for an actual WIFI 6 solution. This ain't one.Pro
- looks nice
Contra
- DNS problems
- shitty software
- Internet account required

DO NOT BUY
Pro
- Video calls for work are a thing of the past. No reason for a video call if you have no network
Contra
- It doesn’t work
- It’s expensive - and doesn’t work
- “Expert” configuration options are not expert
- App has limited config options
- There’s always a promise of a firmware update to fix problems - which causes more problems
Not compatible with B&O Multiroom function
Great WLAN mesh system but unfortunately not compatible with B&O Multiroom function and therefore not usable for us.
