Orbi750 and App
Purchased the Orbi 750 router and sattilite, the app would not work on Apple or Samsung phone. I have employed as external tech to visit my home to set up, no luck ($120 wasted) called Netgear custome...

After 2 further days of phone calls to Netgear support - no fix, no assistance and no free 90 day support. goods purchased within last 10 days.
i have called the retailer that I purchased this 'rubbish' from who have agreed to take back the Orbi units and provide a full refund.
Good riddance to Netgear and Orbi...

The free 90 days of support is a joke. App works one day and then it doesn't. Why should we pay you for support if you update your app and it breaks. We currently can't log into the app because it says our device is offline, guess what..I'm connected to the internet now through that device. So we currently have several devices we turn the internet off to at night and now we can not turn them back on. Base station power cycled, app deleted and reinstalled, still no hope. We work in IT and also work on a lot of people's PC's and networks outside of work, and when people come to us asking for recomendations, I can for sure say I will never reccomend Netgear products to anyone.
From the start the RB750 was released with incomplete firmware, missing advertised features and the reliability is worse than other people we know who have mesh networks from their IP. I should have listened to my gut and returned this thing when I saw the initial issues. Shame on you Netgear!!
