The NETGEAR Orbi CBR750 combines a DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem and tri-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh router in one device. It replaces your rented modem and standalone router, saving up to $168 per year in equipment rental fees depending on your provider.
DOCSIS 3.1 supports internet plans up to 4 Gbps and is certified with Spectrum (up to 1 Gbps download), Cox (up to 1 Gbps download), and Xfinity (up to 900 Mbps download, 200 Mbps upload). It is also compatible with most other major U.S. cable internet providers. Not compatible with fiber, DSL, or satellite services.
Powered by a quad-core 1.4 GHz processor and Wi-Fi 6 technologies including OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and 1024-QAM, the CBR750 delivers AX4200 gigabit speeds across up to 2,500 sq. ft. and supports more than 40 devices simultaneously. A dedicated quad-stream Wi-Fi 6 backhaul channel brings the gigabit speeds you are paying for from the router to every corner of your home. For larger spaces, add optional Orbi Mesh Wi-Fi 6 satellites to extend coverage by 2,500 sq. ft. per unit.
Four Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports provide wired connections for gaming consoles, PCs, smart TVs, and other devices that benefit from a direct link. Built-in NETGEAR Armor provides real-time protection against hackers and added privacy with VPN across all connected devices (30-day free trial included). Smart Parental Controls let you manage screen time and content filtering. Security features are enabled out of the box, with automatic firmware updates to keep your network protected.
Setup takes minutes using the Orbi App, which also handles Wi-Fi management, speed testing, and data usage monitoring.
Note: This product is made for use in the U.S. only.
