I purchased and installed a large Orbi configuration in my home about two years ago and have been happy with it, although I could use a somewhat stronger signal in some areas.  My configuration includes the router, two indoor extensions, and an outdoor extension unit.  Are you offering any type of upgrade for individuals that purchased the previous version?  I must have well over $1000 in that investment, and I'm hesitant to buy this new unit, although I suspect I'd appreciate some of its enhancements.  Help?

IF you can take advantage of AX wifi then it maybe something that you can try out. If not, you may want to hold on to whats working for you.
