Orbi Pro SXR80: Insight app does not show clients connected to satellite SXS80

John,

Fully disagree.

Appears you see Insight just in the standalone deployment of an Orbi SXR80/SXS80 as a closed system and compare with what the Orbi App was made for.

Netgear Insight is made for much more than a single Orbi system, a single cloud managed wireless access point, a single cloud managed switch.  It's made for two or more devices at the same location, say a switch, some access points, an Orbi system, so you can easily add a new VLAN spanning many devices, add more switches, deploy some or even more wireless access points, ... Updating a bunch of select wireless access points from 11ac to 11ax/WiFi 6 for example is a snap. And this is possible for one or multiple locations. Insight Pro does allow MSP/VAR to manage and operate many customer networks, spanning multiple locations.

Had a complex support case recently on an Insight managed customer site. It was a question of just a few clicks for ad-hoc adding a PoE switch and some wireless access points and within a two or three minutes, I had a local version of the customer's wireless environment. 

Granted, I could love to see some say "assistants" allowing short cuts, for example to enhance a configured Orbi Pro WiFi 6 system with multiple SSIDs/VLANs for adding one or multiple switches for converting to a wired backhaul. Well possible there are some ongoing integration issues with the Orbi Pro what appears to be a "single" device but is technically a multi-device system. Can't comment on this, we have no bigger Orbi Pro installations under management. 

For what we pay and get with Netgear Insight resp. Netgear Insight Pro it's an amazing value.
