why orbi over another?
Been doing research on finding the best mesh wifi, after reading this: https://yoursmarthomeguide.com/routers/google-wifi-vs-orbi-vs-eero-vs-velop I am focues on one of these brands. Why Orbi over ...
I've posted this once recently. I've used multiple mesh networks. I'll rank them from my experience. Again, this is just my experience, it isn't scientific.
Here's how I'd rank what I've used.
1. Orbi RBK53
2. Arris W31
3. Orbi RBK43
4. TP-Link M9plus
5. Tenda MW6
This are the systems I've used so I can't speak to how the other wifi mesh systems work or reliablity. I will say that they've all had issues. None have been perfect.
Smallnetbuilder does reviews and ranks systems. there's great reviews there and its worth looking/reading through it a bit before buying your next system. They're fairly extensive reviews and testing.

Users can also find D-Link COVR MESH systems something to add to there review and research as well. Not sure where they actually rank among all the other Mfrs. D-Link as been around for a while.
