Comparing Orbi CBK40-100Nas and NETGEAR C7800-200NAS
I have Comcast and want to know which Modem/ Router is a better product. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Michael

Its a loaded statement. and a lot depends on usage and home setup.
The orbi devices aren't going to have the same peak speeds as a flagship single device product like the C7800 but its going to have higher average speeds at distance because of its satellites and wireless/wired backhaul.
to simplify it:
if you live in a larger home, have dead spots, or need better coverage overall, the orbi is going to be better.
if you live in a small home/apartment and/or just want more capabilities closer to the router, then the c7800 is going to be better.
