   a slew of them have been released in recent months.   
      
      
     1st Tri-Band Mesh WiFi System   
     Tri-Band Mesh allows more devices to connect to Orbi without losing   
     speed or range.   
      
      
      
     The Eero's satellite achieve 99.6 percent of the main unit's download   
     speeds, and the Orbi's satellite achieve 99.9 percent of the main   
     unit's download speeds. That means the main units were transmitting   
     data to the satellite units efficiently.
