Network optimization after the Orbi App Setup helps you to get the best performance and security from your Netgear Orbi setup. Begin by using the built-in speed tests provided by the app to verify the working speed of your internet and trace any spots in your home where the internet is weakening.
Place your Orbi satellites, keeping in mind that ideally they should be placed in open spaces with no thick walls or electronic interference between the satellite and the area it is extending Wi-Fi coverage to. The app gives you the ability to set device priorities using Quality of Service (QoS), thereby ensuring that the really important devices get hand-in-hand bandwidth that they need—for instance, work laptops or streaming TVs.
Automatic firmware updates should be enabled through Orbi App Setup so that your router remains secure and in smooth operation. You have the option to set up guest networks that allow secure access without flecking the main network.
Keep an eye on the network performance through the app yourself, and alter settings as you see fit. Following these tips, your Orbi system would be your fast, reliable Wi-Fi, positioned perfectly for your home's needs.
