AX4200 vs AC3000
I just ordered an AX4200. I've been using an AC3000 for a few years. I recently upgraded to ATT fiber and expect I will see an overall improvement in WIFI speed with the AX4200 (ATT fiber is up to 1 gig). Any other improvements I should gain by moving to the AX4200 from the AC3000 or did I make a bad upgrade purchase?

Well you get AX mode over AX. Back haul speeds are 2400Mbps vs 1733Mbps.
Theres no USB ports on Orbi AX systems.
Might compare the spec sheets between the two.
Please post about this over in the ORbi AX forum:

Good Luck.
Okay....I'm new to the site. I'll post over in the AX section.
My Orbi AC3000 worked much better. I tried to set this up for WIFI only and the whole thing crashed. It took my a couple of hours just to get it working. Called Netgear and was #19 in line.
Has anyone had luck with returning products purchased through Netgears online store?

Something definitely wrong there. I set up my RBK752 yesterday in ten minutes and it's running with no issues.
Netgear support hasn't been stellar in the past, so I can feel for you. I've returned equipment to Netgear before it was pretty easy but I do think I did have to pay return shipping to them.
