Must change to Orbi mode
If connecting as a satellite to an existing Orbi system you must set it to Orbi mode. It comes as an extender from the factory. The piece of paper that comes with this satellite explains how. Basically make sure the power button is off. Then plug it in. Then hold down the pairing button. Then power it on while holding pairing button. Then release pairing button. This will cycle it into orbi mode. It took my satellite about 5 minutes to finally go into Orbi mode. Once in orbi mode go to the app and pair it.
Again, follow the paper that came with it unless you just want to use it as an extender.

Awesome product!
We had an older, slower router before receiving the Orbi as a gift and our WiFi has improved EXPONENTIALLY! It's easy to set up and has a great speaker as well. The built in Alexa is also convenient. I would definitely recommend this product.

Works Well
Overall, I'm very happy with the unit. Alexa is a nice touch. I hope to utilize that part of the device more in the near future. The coverage of the system is phenomenal with speeds that are just amazing compared to a Nighthawk system that was starting to fail a lot. I've had one issue with the system that I needed to restart it, but other than that, no other issues.

Solves problems, plus Alexa
This Orbi Voice/Orbi system replaces an Airport Base Station and Express (still working fine but no longer supported). Setup went smoothly, and coverage is much better. We already have Alexa devices in the home, along with many home automation devices. Having another Alexa in place is very handy. I really like the top control panel on the Voice'”it's intuitive to control volume using a touch system rather than the twisty top on my Alexa Echo. The big advantage of Alexa embedded in this speaker is being able to play Amazon music on command. This offers great value for price paid.

Great replacement for home WiFi
I purchased the two unit system for my 5300 sq ft home and it works perfectly. It was easy to setup and it paired with 5 Apple Airport expresses adding non-drop steady converage to my airplay system.

Orbi Voice
Orbi Voice WiFi mesh system was easy to install, sounds excellent when playing music and provides fast Internet service throughout the house, yard and garage. NetGear deserves a gold medal for this one.

Seriously Great
We have been extremely happy with this router the Netgear Orbi Voice Home Mesh WiFi System/Smart Speaker. Best router I've EVER had. I'm not super techy but this was incredibly easy to set up. It covers every inch of my house 3000 sq.ft. built in 2000. I have lots of walls and windows and coverage is great. I would recommend this router to everyone and anyone who has a subpar router right now.

Orbi Alexa
We needed to get a WiFi booster for our router. As we started doing our research, we discovered this Orbi with a satellite Alexa unit which acts like a WiFi booster but covers a much wider area. As it turns out, this worked great. As an added bonus, we really enjoy having the Alexa to play music through its harman/Kardon speaker. It has some other benefits like pairing with a home security system and such that we have yet to use. But we are very happy with this product so far.

Excellent addition
We were in need of an extender to our existing Orbi system. The built in Alexa and awesome speaker is quite amazing. We absolutely love it and our internet is so much better in some of the more remote areas of our house. Brilliant idea to combine these items.

Worth it for large house
This is a great mesh router and gives me back a lot of the features I was missing when I used Google Wifi. I have no dead spots in my house (about 3500 sq feet) and love the integrated Amazon Echo features. The only downfall which isn't something unique to this router is the missing drop-in and calling features of a normal Amazon Echo device. I can control my smart home devices and listen to music but can't call my other Echos or add these speakers to a group for playing music in multiple rooms. These aren't deal breakers for me but are the only things keeping this from being a perfect 5 star device.

Best Gift
I live in a house with different levels. With my bedroom being on the lower level, I have had connection issues. After receiving the Orbi as a gift and setting it up, I haven't had any issues. I am very thankful for this product and can't wait to use the smart speaker more.

Great high speed complete coverage
I had the easiest time installing and getting it up and running. We enjoy Alexa's features, although limited AI which I expect to increase over time. I'm on a 150MgB Internet speed plan and the speed test is at 180MgB everywhere in the house and backyard. I'm glad I spent the money because its very good value.
I could not be happier

Im obsessed with my Orbi!
I really love the orbi! It was the most easy thing to set up thanks to the app which literally walks you step by step. The WiFi is strong and works in our home which nothing else has (due to the length of our home ) I added our Alexa to The Orbi and it's such a great feature. I have zero complaints and would recommend this to anyone !

Orbi Voice
Easy setup, after placement near the router. Alexa and Amazon setup were easy as well. now we have music and information at the ask. What a great addition to our space! I think I may have to have several of these for better coverage throughout the house. We use the Orbi mesh system to provide strong wi-fi coverage for our estate.

Great wifi and saves kitchen counter space
We have home offices on both levels of our house and needed better coverage. The Orbi was a great solution while also allowing for automation and nice music options. An elegant solution.

Working Better Now
After first setting up it seemed to work great then after a few days I started to experience problems with my Sony TV (2019 Model).
At first the TV connected to satellite on 5Ghz channel, but after a few days it was on 2.4Ghz channel and then after few more days it was on 5Ghz channel on Router which is further away. Then it started disconnecting and would not connect back (TV Says SSID is disabled), I would connect back and it wold only stay connected for 10-15 mins before disconnecting again After forgetting the network on the TV and adding again it connected back at 5Ghz on the Satellite but after few days it went through same cycle as before and eventually would only stay connected for 10-15 mins at a time.
Eventually I moved the satellite closer and it now seems more stable with the TV staying on the 5Ghz channel from satellite.
My guess is that there is some issue with the TV trying to connect back to the satellite once it connected to router and it ended up disconnecting instead. Other devices on the network don't have any issues.
Apart from that its definitely improved the speed of my Wi-Fi over my AT&T U-Verse Router.

Limited speaker functionality
Great sound quality and works nicely for the internet reach in the house, but wish it had Bluetooth and/or connected to Sirius.
I bought it for work, and I listen to SiriusXM during the day. But it doesn't Bluetooth nor can it connect to SiriusXM via the app.
Otherwise, it is a nice device.

Mutes itself, lowers it's own volume, no update
Plagued by this thing having a mind of it's own, it mutes itself, it lowers volume to a zero pint, requires rebooting every 48 hours. I have read forums on this issue and anyone who owns one is awaiting netgear sending a fix via update for firmware, but it's been over a year. IF this did what they promise it'd be a great thing but it's buggy and requires constant attention to keep it working halfway right. A total shame.
