Enhanced Wi-Fi Performance and Coverage

The Orbi 863 features an upgraded antenna design for improved Wi-Fi performance, providing families with the bandwidth to address household demands even when simultaneously 4K/8K streaming, Zoom conferencing, and Wi-Fi calling from a bedroom, basement, or outside in the yard.
