No Discernible Difference from AT&T Equipment

Verified Purchase:Yes
I expected more from this product given reviews but in testing the Orbi AC2200 network vs AT&T BGW210 gateway, I found no discernible difference in speed between the two networks. I am running the AT&T Gigapower internet service into a 3600sf house and tested the speeds on a Samsung Note9 and Tab 4 using Ookla Speedtest . I tested in 7 locations throughout the house over various times during the day. In general, the AT&T network powered by the 1 gateway modem/router and an AirTies produced faster results in 5-6 of the 7 locations compared to the Orbi network with 2 satellites. A neighbor, 2 homes away, with the same AT&T service is receiving a consistent 200-300mps download throughout with a 4 satellite Eero system. In general, my download speed with the Orbi system were 50-200mps. Using the AT&T BGW210 network, the download speed was a more consistent 150-210mps. For reference, my hardwired speeds into the BGW210 are 920-940mps and hardwired into an AT&T AirTies unit are 480-500mps. Note, I suspected their is a problem with my AirTies unit and thus the driving reason to purchase a mesh network. I had expected more from this unit but, unfortunately, it failed to achieve the average level. Netgear chat did not have any recommended solutions other than to return / exchange the unit.

Expected better based on reviews but returned

Verified Purchase:Yes
Based on past experience with Sony's (W850C & couple XBRs), unit's spec's and a couple reviews, I expected this new 2016 model to be an acceptable TV for workout room and bought without seeing picture as TV was not on display. Unfortunately, quality was not acceptable and unit has been returned. Viewing angle was OK but picture lacked crispness of other TVs (2015 Sony W850C & 2013 Samsung F6300). I could not get black level and contract to acceptable levels. Display had a "haze" / light area across top. Power cord is relatively short and has a conversion brick that would make wall mounting difficult. Also, brick becomes warm / hot after 20 minutes of usage. TV did not detect my network but did recognize the WPS connection option. TV did not retain network connection information when power was disconnected and I had to setup network connection again. I wanted to like the TV but it lacked the picture quality and mounting ability expected.
