EERO Gen 2 Vs Orbi - What’s the Fastest WiFi Mesh System? TheWirecutter.com
TheWirecutter.com pit EERO Gen 2 vs. Orbi vs. Plume and even Google WiFi and other WiFi systems. See how Orbi Wins the WiFi Race
I have had so many service interruptions (seems to be caused by the satellite) that when the Orbi misbehaves my computers that are wired to the cable modem/router (Netgear C3700) can't get access to the Internet. If I take the satellite out of the picture, the Orbi main unit behaves fairly normally....although I don't get the range.
The bottom line is I am so fed up with dealing with this I got a Google Wifi with 3 nodes, it works perfectly, great range....not quite as fast as the Orbi (when the Orbi works which is about 75% of the time).
I am hoping I can get Netgear to RMA the whole package so I can sell it on eBay, becuase I have zero faith in Netgear fixing it.

Yep, that's a common problem people have around here. It's not the performance when it works, but the stability. The Google Wifi is much slower, but rock stable from what I read.
