Costco Orbi w/ 2 satellites RBK753S AX4200
Costco is selling this model for $399.99 with two satellites.
I just bought the AX6000 Orbi model from Best Buy for $699 with only one satellite. That's a huge price difference. Would I notice a difference in performance if I return the Best Buy orbi and purchase the cheaper one from Costco?

Is the 8 series not working well for you?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.Most differences are wifi connection rates are a bit lower on the 7 series and there isn't a 2.5Gb WAN port on the 7 series.
- In case you haven't noticed, LOT of issues with recent fw.. My suggestion, get the one at Costco, minimize your risk. Costco has a better return policy than Best Buy, which will count considering the gamble with the latest firmware
Not everyone is having the same issues. If your having problems with your system then you'll need to contact NG support and open up a support ticket.

And being told that not everyone is having the same issues is a bandaid response to a bigger underlying issue. Most consumers don't know what the underlying issue actually is.. I however am aware and have been there, done that.
