How well does Orbi Pro work going through floors and walls

I work in a 7 story building and want to use Orbi pro to provide wireless access to about 200 tenants. The building would be very difficult to cable, and was wondering how well an Orbi Pro router and several satellites would do the job. Any suggestions?

 

TIA

    Hi jhayes01854,

     

    Welcome to our community! :)

     

    I may not recommend using Orbi Pro with regards to the environment. It only supports up to 3 satellites only. I may suggest you to get a wireless controller and an access point for better coverage.
