This automatically raised the usage of the internet at home/residence as all the students, working professionals; families were sharing the same internet for individual work, which resulted in low-speed internet. People started to realize that the internet not only has to work on speed, but we need to have a good router to support multiple devices at a go, without any disturbance and disconnecting issues.

Many homes have taken these internet speed concerns seriously and upgraded the internet plans for a hassle-free connection, however, not upgraded their Wi-Fi Routers, delivering seamlessly Wi-Fi speeds are available to everyone at home.

The concept of faster and swifter internet will enable the user to connect seamlessly in the new work from home culture and learn from home culture.

A powerful AX Mesh Wi-Fi System helps the router to keep all the device connections strong in every room of the house. Users can simply enjoy the perks of watching 4K/8K UHD streaming and online gaming to multiple screens simultaneously without interruption.

The router comes with the latest generation of Wi-Fi 6 technology which is faster than ever, with 4X increased capacity compared to a Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) system. Seamless and Consistent Mesh Wi-Fi Coverage has been dedicated to quad-stream Wi-Fi 6 backhaul which allows up to four data streams on each band.

User can easily set up the Wi-Fi management with the Orbi app and create a guest network, by viewing connected devices, and perform speed tests. A LAN port can also be used to connect with more wired devices with 4 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports on each router and satellite are ideal for home offices or home entertainment areas.

Ownership Cost: Typically, investing in a good router such as the Wi-Fi 6 Mesh router system, user can end up recovering the cost of ownership within 2 years and the technology can be used for a minimum of 3 years.
