Re: Do the Wifi 6 Orbi support 160Mhz?
Since no one has yet seen the new Orbi, people can only speculate.
The WiFi 6 "standards" specifically mentions "160MHz channel utilization capability", so if the Orbi is "standards compliant" one would suppose it includes that feature to the extent possible.
The reason I say "extent possible" is there are restrictions on how radio channels can be used in different countries. Here is an excellent (although technical) discussion:

AX supports 160Mhz so we can presume that any AX supporting wifi router has to support 160Mhz:
