User questions & answers

Question:	Will it support surveillance cameras
Answer:	no. but it can be. I decide which wattage I want to use.
Question:	Hi, i have Verizon wifi box already its just slow. Will this device speed it up
Answer:	It works great for pressure cooking. I use mine all the time. I have the version that has 5 F degree increments. One thing we do is cook whole organic chicken for 10 hrs on high pressure at 205 degrees F (after the max pressure is reached) until the bones are able to be smushed. We just dig in to the whole "mess" and eat everything. My other cooktop has only increments of 30-40 degrees. That just doen't do for cooking many things that need precise temperatures. I can do those on the PIC. Be aware of this when shopping for cooktops. The timer function is GREAT when you want to do something long and slow.
Question:	Does it come with an app to manage your network from anywhere
Answer:	ALL of my cast iron le creuset pans work GREAT on this cooktop! what an energy/time/added-kitchen-heat saver! enjoy the combo!!i wouldn't recommend "scooting" the pan ANY cast iron pan across the cooking surface, just in case of rough spots on the pan that might damage the cooktop.special note: of course, the stoneware/bakeware won't work, but i'm sure that isn't your question.
Question:	I have a wifi provider and get only fair reception. it is not working with amazon fire. it just keeps streaming. will this help my connection
Answer:	Major difference between those 2 models is max power. NuWave PIC can go up to 1300W and NuWave PIC Pro High Powered can go up to 1800W. In practice it means that you will be able to cook "faster" with Pro High Powered model but in the same time you will need to make sure that the wiring for your kitchen outlet is 20A. If it is not the case you will face frequent pops of your fuse on this outlet or create fire hazard if installation is not done properly. Just as a safety precaution manufacturer equips this kind of devices with special plug that will not fit regular 15A outlet. It means you will not be able to use it in a lot of places where there is no 20A outlet. I personally own basic version and it is sufficient for my cooking needs. Nevertheless if you are power hungry you may look for 3000W Induction Cooktop from other makers. This kind of equipment will set you up for alteration of you kitchen wiring to 220V. In general it is not that difficult since the most american kitchen should be pre-wired for this possibility.

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone else experienced issues w/ only iPhones not having a reliable connection. Or just kicked off entirely and unable to log back in
Answer:	Yes - according to eero staff in r/eero on reddit.
Question:	Are the antennas adjustable (vertical, horizontal, diagonal positioning
Answer:	Yes - according to eero staff in r/eero on reddit.
Question:	Can qos be set at an application level so the kids online gaming can be throttled so adults can work at home without slow downs on video conferencing
Answer:	There aren’t that many HomeKit routers in the market to begin with, and apparently if you get a HomeKit router after you’ve already set up a smart home, you have to RESET and RE-ADD all accessories for security reasons. I’m basically waiting for Eero Pro 6 to have an answer for us before deciding to purchase (a 6 or the older gen Pro)
Question:	Is the range better than a Netgear Nighthawk R
Answer:	Yes, but when you put AX routers/AP's in mesh mode with AC AP's the AX ones will change over to AC mode. If you don't have a pro model Eero as the router, this would be a nice upgrade. But if you have the pro model + beacons, you would need to upgrade all of them to see a benefit. If you just want more pro's, then this is more future proof than buying the wifi 5 pro model, and you could at a later time replace all your units with WiFi 6 models.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can systems like these be linked in a line? I mean instead of the satellite units having to be within range of the router, can I daiseychain them out
Answer:	Regardless if Orbi can be daisy chained with wired cable ... if you can daisy chain routers, why not just set up an AP system. If you can hard wired the AP, there is no need for Orbi and you get much better performance. As to daisy chaining Orbi, yes, you can do that.. but that defeats the purpose of using Orbi. The main technological advantage with Orbi is its ability to have a 3rd backhaul channel through wireless connection. If you can using hard wired... just go with the proven WLAN AP (http://pigtail.azurewebsites.net/tp-link/large-building.PNG)... my organization use it to deploy over 200 wireless devices on the same lan without much overhead degradation.
Question:	Is it 100 - 240 Volts
Answer:	It all depends upon where you buy it. In the USA it is supplied with 115V power supplies one for the router and one each for the Satellites, this is OK of you live in the USA or somewhere where they have 115v power in the homes. If you live in the UK buy them in the UK they come with 240v power supplies, so they are OK for the UK, but come with the UK 3 pin sockets. In Europe theu come with two pin European adaptors suitable for Europes 220 v power. The problem is if you buy it in one country and want to run it in another. Netgear do not sell the power supplies separately. I bought mine in the Black Friday sales in the USA and brought them to the UK. I had to buy power supplies from Germany that were suitable for 240 volts and adaptors for continental to UK sockets. Be careful, you ned to know exactly what the pin size is the pin lengt and the pin inside and pouside diameters. To save you hassle you need Plug-in power supply unit, 12 V, 1000 mA, with -ve polarity on the outside The pin that plugs into the ORBI should be 5.5mm outside diameter and the socket 2.5mm inside diam. The length of the pin is 12mm.
Question:	How is orbi different from google wifi or eero
Answer:	Orbi One of the big differences is dedicated tri-band Wi-Fi for faster speeds! You can find a detailed explanation of the differences on our homepage: https://www.netgear.com/landings/orbi-wins/
Question:	Does Orbi support ethernet back haul between the base station and satellites
Answer:	As of April/late May 2018, the latest firmware 2.1.4.10 has not only broken ethernet backhaul, but it also takes down your entire network such that no device can connect to the Internet if you leave the ethernet cable connected to satellite. There is no way to disable auto update of the firmware. I have had an open support case for nearly one month and have spent many, many hours in that time trying to troubleshoot. Never had this kind of issue with my Airport Extremes, which is no longer made, so I thought Orbi would be a good replacement given all the positive professional reviews. See people's issues here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/Known-Issues-Orbi-Firmware-V-2-1-4-10-update/td-p/1558346
Question:	Does it have vpn server support on the router? if so, what vpn protocols does it support
Answer:	Yes but don’t recall which protocols
Question:	Is this Fios compatible
Answer:	FiOS already has an ONT on site. this is compatible, but will not transmit data for your STBs (For TV) such as guide and VOD.
Question:	Will this work with AT&T fios
Answer:	Mine is on COX and it really does a good job just make sure to set up 2.4 and 5 mghz networks separate
Question:	Does this device provide space travel and if so, what is its maximum jump distance
Answer:	Yes, 22.7 light years per jump

User questions & answers

Question:	Which router is being referred to when people ask questions about "this router?" There appear to be 4 different routers sharing this product listing
Answer:	The TL-WR802N supports 2.4GHz only. For dual band, 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity, we recommend our TL-WR902AC instead: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Wireless-Travel-Router-TL-WR902AC/dp/B01N5RCZQH Regards, TP-Link Support
Question:	Is this router good with Macbooks
Answer:	I just received my ordered device. It is Model TL-WR902AC(US) Ver. 3.0
Question:	Can I connect a bunch of these together and use them as 1 single wifi network
Answer:	If your hotel has no WiFi password, and instead a third-party “connect” page that automatically loads when you connect to the WiFi, this can be used as a WISP Client to bypass this step for future device connections. This means in your hotel room, you can connect smart devices, Chromecast, smart lights, cameras, and more easily connect Alexa or Google home! A big “however,” WISP mode can only be used to repeat the WiFi signal from the hotel. It CANNOT be used to connect directly to an Ethernet port in your hotel room. This means it won’t be as fast as a direct connection, but I’ve had no troubles with the speed in this mode for streaming media and using smart devices. To use the WISP Client Router Mode, connect the Ethernet cable from the router to your computer (NOT an Ethernet port in your room) and connect the power cable to the router. Navigate to the TP-Link provided URL in your computers browser. Login using the provided credentials. In Quick Setup mode, you’ll see the option for WISP Client Router mode. In the next step, select Dynamic IP Address and hit next. In the following step, select your hotel’s WiFi (if there are multiple, choose the one with the strongest signal). You may be directed to the hotel’s third-party “connect” page at this time, in which case you will have to click connect as you usually do, but the router will retain this connection so the devices you connect to this router will not have to be directed to the connect page. If you are not directed to the “connect” page at that step, make sure to test out the connection after set up by connecting your computer to your new travel router’s WiFi and navigating to any website in your computer’s browser, using the “connect” page if you are directed there at this time.
Question:	Ea9500 what's the range like would it cover 20000 square feet
Answer:	TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Travel Router: Switch set to "Share Hotspot" Hotel has Wifi with a password. Once linked to hotel Wifi you have to open a web page that authenticates your device. Connecting the TP-link router: I connected to the router, scanned for wifi networks, selected hotel wifi network and entered the password. After connection I was not able to see the internet. I then connected to the TP-Link wifi from my phone and browsed a web page. I got authenticated onto the hotel wifi (now via TP-link) and was then able to connect other devices to the TP-link router. After I switched the TP-link off and back on again simulating what might happen while room gets cleaned it was not needed to connect to the TP-link and do the hotel web authentication again. I will monitor this over the next few days to see if any further information is needed for this discussion. I added my experience as I struggled a little to follow the previous suggestions. Thank you though to those that did respond as it got me on the right direction.

More Bandwidth for More Devices

Designed as a dual-purpose home office and entertainment WiFi router, the Max-Stream AC5400 WiFi Router delivers WiFi to multiple users on multiple devices at the same time and same speed. Featuring Beamforming and MU-MIMO technology, this Next-Gen AC Router treats your devices as if each has its own dedicated router. Working in your home office, you'll enjoy lag-free videoconferencing and fast file transfer, even while the rest of the family is streaming 4K or HD media in the living room.

Room-to-Room Wi-Fi with Seamless Roaming

The Max-Stream AC5400 Wi-Fi Router features Seamless Roaming when paired with a Max-Stream range extender so enabled Wi-Fi devices will automatically switch to the strongest Wi-Fi signal.** You won't have to manually connect to the router or range extender when you move from one room to another--or even to your backyard. This means that you can move freely throughout your home while video chatting or streaming videos without experiencing dropped calls or buffering.

Pair a Max-Stream router with a Max-Stream range extender for more efficient home Wi-Fi that delivers a stronger, more powerful Wi-Fi signal to all your devices.

Blazing-Fast Speeds from Three Wi-Fi Bands

With three dedicated, independent Wi-Fi bands that offer combined speeds of up to 5.3 Gbps*, you'll always have the bandwidth you need for your task. Tri-Band technology provides up to double the wireless-AC performance of a dual-band router. Band 1 is 2.4 GHz with speeds of up to 1000 Mbps for older wireless-N and -G devices. Band 2 is a high-speed 5 GHz band for extremely fast file transfers and videoconferencing, while the third 5 GHz band delivers blazing Wi-Fi speeds ideal for online gaming and streaming.

*The standard transmission rates—1000 Mbps or 2166 Mbps (for 5 GHz), 1000 Mbps (for 2.4 GHz), 54 Mbps, and 11 Mbps—are the physical data rates. Actual data throughput will be lower and may depend on the mix of wireless products used and external factors.

Advanced Connectivity with Eight Gigabit Ethernet Ports

Eight Gigabit Ethernet ports let you connect an array of wired devices for enhanced file transfer speeds and stability—up to 10X faster than Fast Ethernet. Two USB connections—including one fast USB 3.0 port—are ideal for connecting shared storage devices or printers.

**Seamless Roaming is designed for devices that support the 802.11k standard including but not limited to iPhone (4s and later), iPad Pro, iPad Air and later, iPad mini and later, iPad (3rd generation and later), iPod touch (5th generation and later), Samsung S4 (Android 4.2.2 /4.4.2), Samsung S5 (Android 4.4.2), and Samsung S6 (Android 5.0.2). For more information on supported Windows and other devices, please check with your device manufacturer.

Getting the AC5400 up and running is simple. Just plug the router into a power source, connect it to your Internet modem and your computer or laptop, connect to the Linksys secure network as shown in the quick start guide, and follow the instructions. No installation CD is required.

Eight Antennas for Optimal Wi-Fi Performance

The router features eight adjustable external antennas that provide powerful streams of data to your devices, ensuring far-reaching Wi-Fi coverage. Unlike the two or three data streams found on standard routers, the AC5400 delivers four simultaneous streams on each of the three Wi-Fi bands for stronger, faster performance.

Powerful Dual-Core Processor for Efficient Operation

Enjoy gaming without interruption from other networked devices. The Max-Stream AC5400 Router is powered by a 1.4 GHz dual-core processor that delivers the performance necessary for activities like multiplayer online gaming. The AC5400 is capable of handling multiple high-speed data streams at once--delivering faster Wi-Fi speeds to more devices.

Targeted Signals Improve Wi-Fi Connections

User questions & answers

Question:	I recently upgraded to Verizon gigabit and the modem router they give is lackluster. Does this just connect via Ethernet to the modem
Answer:	Yes. Connect the R7800 to the FiOS router (they don't use modems) by attaching an ethernet cable to one of the FiOS router's LAN ports, and the other end to any of the ports on the R7800. Then set up the R7800 in AP mode, and disable the Wifi of the FiOS router (not critical, but neater). The FiOS router will assign all the IP addresses, and the R7800 will provide wireless services. Works like a charm. You can use the LAN ports of both the FiOS router and the R7800 for wired connections.
Question:	Is this device able to plug and play via ethernet cable from my cable modem to extend my cable wifi range
Answer:	Yes. All of these Netgear routers can either be used as range extenders OR wired into becoming the primary internet source for your home. The latter is actually recommended, if your cable modem is basic and/or sends a weaker than warranted WiFi signal.
Question:	what are the two bands
Answer:	2.4 and 5
Question:	I have 150mbps service will this router give me that if I do a speed text
Answer:	I don't own this router, but I'd agree with Apollo Grace. Anything that's going to be using this ethernet port will be bottlenecked at 100Mbit maximum. If you're just using this for WiFi only or if you don't mind a maximum speed of 100Mbit on the ethernet port, then buy it. But there are similar products out there for the same price range with Gigabit ports allowing the full WiFi speed to go through the ethernet ports. https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-AC1200-Smart-WiFi-Router/dp/B01IUDUJE0 (TP-Link Archer C1200) for example, and it's cheaper.
