NetGear Orbi WiFi System (RBK50) vs TP-Link Deco W7200

I bought thisabout 4 months ago to bypass the Verizon router. Very easy to set up but except for running speed tests, I can't tell a difference. The satellite doesn't seem to help any. My phone seems to take longer to load apps than before and we have had some buffering on streaming tv for the first time in years though not a lot

Its speed is awesome. And its app is very nice to use. If you don't handing the reigns over to the device to basically control itself, then you will probably like this product. I think there is a lot of overlap between the non-technical consumer who wants good Wifi with easy setup, and the consumer who can tolerate a little lag when watching YouTube because their device's connection dropped for 30 seconds

ft. home. But it isn't magic. You can't just look at your home's square footage and buy the number of satellites based on that

Been using it for a week now and no reboots and complete connectivity with all the computers and devices running. Since I do IT for a living I do hate their app as it is too simple and the web interface is a joke compared to the iPhone app's. The advanced feature just are not there for someone who knows what they are doing but the price is right and when I need my son to get offline I can easily toss him on the deny list and his gaming computer is offline. Don't need their subscription plan for that

Fixes the issue where IPv6 devices on the guest network can access the Orbi router’s web GUI. Includes security fixes for the following security vulnerabilities:PSV-2016-0133, PSV-2017-0607, PSV-2017-0615, PSV-2017-0736, PSV-2017-2190 So an update that supposedly fixes disconnect issues (which I never experienced) does the opposite and starts causing them instead. Thank you Netgear for breaking my perfectly wonderful wifi system. Apparently their engineering team has been spending most of their time introducing new Orbi devices and not spending much time refining their current firmware

I got this for the parental controls (to limit my kids daily time) and for whole house coverage. You have to pay a subscription fee to get the parental controls, which I did. The problem is that, unless you power the devices off, they download in the background (apps checking for updates, system updates, etc) . The two hour allocation would be used up while they were in school and I'd have to keep adding time after they got home
