The Wi-Fi system leverages the dedicated Wi-Fi 6 backhaul that NETGEAR pioneered with the original Orbi, which provides a dedicated quad stream 5Ghz channel for data exchange between the router and satellite thus reducing congestion and allowing all devices on the network to run faster.


Speaking at the launch Marthesh Nagendra, Country Manager India, ME & SAARC, NETGEAR commented, "As home networks are being exhausted by every member of the household working from home, distance learning and streaming video or playing online games, we have seen that there has been a major increase in the demand for the internet providing higher bandwidth.
