NETGEAR Orbi 970 Quad-Band WiFi 7 Mesh (RBE973S, 3-pack)
The Orbi 970 posts the biggest real-world numbers of any consumer mesh thanks to its dedicated WiFi 7 backhaul, but you pay flagship-plus prices and still need subscriptions for security. For most families the Deco BE63 or eero Max 7 is the saner buy.

In our testing the highlights were clear: quad-band with dedicated 5 GHz WiFi 7 backhaul; up to 27 Gbps aggregate, 10 Gig internet port; 10,000 sq ft coverage, 200 devices.
It is not perfect — extremely expensive; armor security is another subscription. For most buyers in this category those trade-offs are easy to live with, but weigh them against your setup before you click buy.
