Is Orbi an option UK home
Hi read many reviews about Orbi and the issues that appear with disconnects, guest setup, hiding internal devices from guest or allow etc.... The house is and old UK miners house brick 3 bedroom and ...
I have a 3 bedroom house (about the same size as yours). My garden is about 100ft long. I originally had mine connected to a BT Smart Hub 6 which had a terrible signal to the master bedroom (30 feet from the router).
Installing the ORBI at the front of the house as an access point, and the satalite (via wireless backhaul) in the master bedroom (which had terrible reception) now gives me a signal throughout the house and gardens. I have a PS4 and XBOX One X connected to the satellite by CAT6, and about 20 other devices (Samsung Smart, Android, Apple, etc) and have never had the system reboot on its own. I check the debug page every month, and it's still going strong. I could easily max out my 76Mb connection.
I have since moved to Virgin and have a 360Mb connection. Connecting from my Galaxy S8 and running OOKLA speed test in the bedroom connected to the satellite, I get the full 360Mb transfer speed.
I would thoroughly recommend the ORBI for your house and WiFi connection.
