We're right in the heart of October Prime Day again, and together with the rest of the Lifehacker team I'm hunting through Amazon to find the best details for you-and the $315 reduction on the Netgear Orbi 970 Wi-Fi 7 mesh series has definitely grabbed my attention. This is a system I've tested in the past for review purposes, alongside many others, and it's the most powerful Wi-Fi 7 system I've used yet.
The price drop here is 16 percent, so you're going to be paying $1,684.99 instead of $1,999.99. I know that's a lot of money for a mesh system, but this three-pack is wifi networking for power users-and if you weigh just how important home wifi is, and how much use you get out of it, then it's a worthwhile investment if you've got the budget. According to price trackers, it's also the lowest this system has ever been.

Get Deal $1,684.99 $1,999.99 Save $315.00 This beast of a Wi-Fi 7 system will completely eliminate dead spots across 10,000 square feet of space, and you can connect up to 200 devices to it without issue-enough to handle even the busiest of households. You've got blazing fast wired Gigabit ports here too, and quad-band support to ensure a rock solid connection every time.
Though the theoretical maximum wifi speed is an astonishing 27 Gbps, this won't actually upgrade the broadband speed coming into your home-but it will make sure that wifi speeds are maximized in every corner of your property. In the time I spent testing out the Orbi 970 I was seriously impressed with the upload and download rates, and the connection stability across dozens of phones, tablets, laptops, and other devices.
