Review: Netgear Orbi 770 Series

Netgear Armor is the baked-in, feature-packed security software capable of scanning devices on your network and proactively blocking threats, including malware and dodgy websites. It also includes Bitdefender Security and VPN service to safeguard your devices outside the home. But you only get 30 days for free; it’s $40 for the first year and $100 a year after.

Basic parental controls are included but limited to profiles for your kids’ devices and an internet pause option. To set limits, track website and app usage, apply age-appropriate filters, and set bedtimes, you have to subscribe to Smart Parental Controls for $8 a month or $70 a year after the 30-day trial.

While you don’t need these subscriptions, they can be handy for families, so it’s disappointing that they are among the most expensive on the market. It may not be as slick or easy to configure, but Asus offers free security software and parental controls, and Eero’s similar Plus subscription is $100 a year all-in.

Sweet Spot

As a premium brand, systems like the Netgear 970 Series (7/10, WIRED Review) and even the 870 Series are expensive. The 770 Series is the sweet spot in Netgear’s Wi-Fi 7 range for most households. With our 1 Gbps internet connection, the 770 was virtually indistinguishable from its more expensive siblings, and I wouldn’t consider a more expensive system unless your internet connection is faster than 2.5 Gbps.

Modest-size homes and needs may be better served by something from WIRED’s Best Routers guide, but if you need a mesh to cover a wider area or eliminate a dead spot, this is a great choice. You could save money by opting for a Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E system, but even if you don’t have many Wi-Fi 7 devices today, support is becoming more widespread. Snagging the Orbi 770 will enable you to tick off Wi-Fi worries for the next few years.

Ultimately, if you want a set-and-forget mesh that’s robust, reliable, and rangey, the 770 Series should be on your shortlist.
