    Hi JJC327,

    Thanks for your question. Nighthawk X6S has FastLane3 technology and is intended to work with any router or gateway and provide extreme speed and coverage by using one of the tri-band radios to connect with the router. It can work with Orbi but cannot connect to the dedicated backhaul of Orbi since Orbi is a closed system.
