Does ORBI replace DSL Modem and Nighthawk Router?

I have a Netgear DM111PSPv2 Modem and a Nighthawk AC1900 R7000 router, and was wondering if the ORBI system would replace both of them, and provide me greater coverage. Anyone?

  • hi

     

    you the orbi system is basically a wireless router with sat , so it replaces your R7000 as far as router and wireless but you would still need the DM111 to use as the modem 

     

    do you have issues with coverage with the r7000 ? as if not i would stick with the r7000 as its has better feature set
