Orbi WiFi 6

Just read this from Tom’s guide “Netgear tells us that the the Wi-Fi 6 Orbi will offer gigabit wireless speeds across the entire mesh network. This router also retains Netgear's FastLane3 technology for superior performance. Like the Nighthawk AX12, the new Orbi will be equipped to handle 12 Wi-Fi streams at once, and it'll be tri-band with a dedicated 4x4 backhaul. That means data will move swiftly and seamlessly between the various satellite units in your home for coverage in every corner on every floor.

Netgear will unveil the final version of the Wi-Fi 6 Orbi mesh router in early September. The new version of the Orbi router features tri-band support with quad stream radios for all three Wi-Fi bands; it also supports MU-MIMO and OFDMA to more efficiently handle multiple users and devices. Expect more details about the Orbi Wi-Fi 6 Mesh system — including its price — when Netgear unveils the mesh router on Sept. 6.“

Very excited! 😁
