    • Although I don't love the Orbis app as much as google wifi, the orbi with just the 2 hubs give me full 5ghz coverage
    • Awesome router with cool app
    • Simple setup, app is user friendly, able to see detailed information about your network.
    • The app I installed on my iPhone is very easy to navigate and set the system up quickly

    • The app is easy to use and nice to monitor
    • It works as it should.
    • My internet experience is now as good as if I was connected to the modem directly using an Ethernet cable
    • I decided to purchase three Google units and I now get a strong signal in every corner of the house, as well as in the backyard.
    • I suspect the speed issue is due to the mesh using WiFi for it's backhaul channel as well as to service clients.
    • I contacted google support and after months of troubleshooting they refuse to refund as it is past the 30 day return now, but was not when I initially reported the problem to Google
    • The controller App [Google WiFi] is very intuitive and helps you to set up a guest network as well as to manage the devices on your network
    • The 'tech support' is more of a FAQ section, and it kept referring me back to the same answer over and over...if google's goal is to make their customers frustrated, they've succeeded.. as much as i'd want to recommend this product, in good conscience, I can't, mainly due to the crappy customer service, which was a joke..
    • It MUST plug directly into your modem in order for it to work as it has been designed
    • Isn’t excellent product?!The speed is awesome too!!!P
