    NETGEAR Unveils its Latest Mesh Wi-Fi Offering for your Home Network in India

    With many people working from home during the pandemic, it has become essential to get a decent and secure working setup. NETGEAR, a leading provider of today’s smart home has announced the launch of its latest Orbi Mesh Wi-Fi Routers to tackle those daily home networking challenges. The NETGEAR Mesh System consists of a router and one or more satellites which is suitable to cover the surface area upto 200sqm. The renewed design of Orbi routers makes it even more in line with the architectural, stylistic and above all technological needs of modern “digital” homes.

    As many organizations are working towards executing policies so that the employees have an option to work from home without hampering their daily tasks. As a result, the reality of working from home has been intensified. To remain effective, you need to prepare your virtual connection to be able to work worry-free. Hence, the new Orbi mesh system guarantees the same coverage throughout the house without “dead zones” or rooms where the signal is weak.

    NETGEAR’s latest offering comes with a brand new design which features a diminutive cube-like base router and satellites with a diamond-like pattern on top. The Mesh system also comes in two modules; RBK12 which provides reliable coverage of up to 120 square meters and RBK13 which provides coverage upto 200 square meters. These new models are much more discreet and can be left more easily on a corner of the shelf or desk. The main router and the satellites form a square about 5 cm and weigh around 250g.

    Speaking at the occasion Marthesh Nagendra, Country Manager India, ME & SAARC, NETGEAR commented, “Currently we are facing a pandemic scenario throughout the world where we are bound to be dependent on our home networks where we don’t have an effective option for high-speed Internet. Our home networks are either too slow or too expensive or non-existent. Through our latest Mesh Wi-Fi offering, we aim to provide our customers with a Wi-Fi system that is exceedingly fast and reliable as well as secured by NETGEAR Armor Cybersecurity and Circle Parental Controls.”

    The Orbi Mesh system also integrates the parental control Circle with Disney, a really simple way for families to manage the content and online time of their children on any connected device. The RBK12 and RBK13 is also protected by NETGEAR Armor by Bitdefender, a security system that guarantees the protection from viruses, malware, stolen passwords, identity theft, and hacker attack, of all devices connected to the Internet from your home network, both that they are inside the house and on the move. Both of these security systems can be activated directly from the Orbi App on a Smartphone or Desktop. Once you have set your preferences, the user will be able to receive notifications on his Smartphone of suspicious activities.

    The NETGEAR Orbi also promises top combined speeds up to 1.2Gbps, along with a single gigabit Ethernet jack on the back of the router for a speedy, wired connection to your streamer, smart home hub or gaming console of choice.
