Orbi 970 Series Quad-Band WiFi 7 Mesh Router (RBE971SB)

I’ve been using a Netgear Orbi RBE771 for a year and have had zero issues. Dedicated wireless backhaul channel works great

I have the BE9500 from previously netgear orbi 971 after it started boot looping, but I’m happier with the TP-Link.

i use Netgear Orbi 970 i love it.

Was mentioned over on the community forums that enabling WPA3 only on the 970 seemed to solve the newer iPhone generation issue of connections. [https://community.netgear.com/discussions/en-home-orbi-be/i-finally-found-a-solution-to-fixing-the-orbi970-iphone-wifi-disconnecting-issue/2458460](https://community.netgear.com/discussions/en-home-orbi-be/i-finally-found-a-solution-to-fixing-the-orbi970-iphone-wifi-disconnecting-issue/2458460) Something you could try and see if this helps what you're seeing.

When I bought my own house, I ran into the problem, that the main stream fancy brands had nothing in their product portfolio, that would meet my requirements (2.5 GBit fiber connection and I wanted a 2.5 Gbit network in my house). Ended up with Netgear Orbi 970 with 3 Satellites (192 m² house, one satellite is in my garage). Yes, it is expensive as hell, but it outperforms everything I've used by miles. When I build my new computer and hadn't connected the network cable and was running on WLAN only, I still had 2.2 GBit/s download speed, which was insane. Gaming with that setup is a dream.

I recently went through an upgrade and went with the orbi 970 system and didn’t like it. I returned it and went with a full UniFi setup and couldn’t be happier I did. I went with cloud gateway fiber and a pro-max 16 PoE switch and then U7-PRO XGS access points. I’ll add another switch later when I install all of the cameras.

I switched from flagship Orbi to mid to high range TP and never looked back. TP just works.
