Netgear’s Orbi mesh Wi-Fi systems aren’t cheap, but their strong performance and easy-to-use app makes them a popular choice for homes and businesses that need to extend the reach of their Wi-Fi networks.

The latest addition to the Orbi range actually gives you two options. Smaller homes of up to 2,700sq ft can just buy a single Orbi router (RBR860) for £449.99; larger homes, of up to 8,000sq ft, can step up to this three-piece mesh system (RBK863), which includes a router and two additional ‘satellites’ for a rather hefty price of £1,099.99.
