Review on 🎧 NETGEAR Orbi Voice Mesh WiFi Satellite Extender - RBS40V-100NAS: Designed Exclusively for Orbi WiFi Systems by Brian Lee

I have 1 Orbi with 2 satellites and the WiFi coverage in our home is now excellent and noticeably faster than the Cisco predecessor. Setup was easy - everything worked in 5 minutes. I only have one complaint. Even if you choose a Class B IPv4 address, Orbi's DHCP only allows you to use a 24-bit mask (i.e. 255.255.255.0 or 254 devices) for DHCP. Now that's enough for most households. But when you have smart lightbulbs, smart thermostats, Alexa controlling everything, and a large family with lots of wireless devices, I can see the day coming soon when 254 IPs won't be enough. So why not use class B private range and have DHCP at least /23 space (more than 500 IPs)? Netgear, add some flexibility to your DHCP. Otherwise I'm a big fan! And I love the integration with Circle, which allows me to impose specific permissions/restrictions on my wireless users.
