Netgear has launched Wi-Fi 6 enabled Tri-band Orbi RBK852 mesh router system in India. This is a slightly more affordable option as compared to Orbi RBK853 that was introduced in December last year. That’s because the number of satellite nodes has been reduced from two to one.
Consequentially, the coverage area reduces from 7500 sq. ft. to 5000 sq. ft. However, since this is a mesh system, users have the option to separately add extra 'satellites' or nodes to cover dead zones should the need arise in the future. The Orbi RBK852 can be easily set up using the Orbi app available for both Android and iOS. It also integrates support for both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.
