NETGEAR Orbi RBK863S Tri-Band WiFi 6 Mesh System Review

Package and its Contents

Package Contents:

  • One (1) Orbi Router (RBR860)
  • Two (2) Orbi Satellites (RBS860)
  • One (1) 6.6 ft (2m) Ethernet cable
  • Three (3) power adapters
  • Quick start guide

The package is a box that is well-described and protects the contents thoroughly. Inside the box, we will find the router, two satellites, three power adapters, an ethernet cable, and a quick start guide. This is about everything we may need for installation.

The router and satellites look almost the same. The main difference is inside and on the back panel, where the router has a 10GbE WAN port additionally. To the router and satellites, we can connect additional devices that are not using a WiFi connection. Since everything can be spread quite far from each other, then it’s a huge advantage.

The exterior of the router and satellites is made of plastic, but it feels high-end. All the devices are quite large. One of the reasons for that is all the electronics with a strong processor and eight antennas to boost the signal. Since the router and satellites have quite a small foot, then it doesn’t cause problems.

During regular work, we won’t see any LED backlight. The photo below shows how the Orbi looks during or before the configuration.

Let’s move to the installation and configuration.
