Netgear Orbi 770 (RBE773): price, specs & release date

Verified from NETGEAR's RBE773 product page and the Newegg RBE773-100NAS listing: BE11000 tri-band WiFi 7 (IEEE 802.11be; 6 GHz 5,760 + 5 GHz 4,320 + 2.4 GHz 688 Mbps, 6 streams), maximum WiFi speed "up to 11 Gbps", coverage "up to 8,000 sq. ft." as a 3-pack (one RBE771 router + two RBE770 satellites), up to 100 devices, one 2.5 Gig (2500 Mbps) Multi-Gig WAN port. Ethernet per NETGEAR/Newegg: router has 1x 2.5G WAN + 3x 2.5G LAN (Newegg "Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports: 3", "Total Number of Network Ports: 4") and each satellite has 2x 2.5G LAN; ethernet ports per unit set to 3 per catalog methodology (router LAN count as representative unit), matching the RBK763S treatment. dedicated backhaul set FALSE despite NETGEAR's "dedicated backhaul / Enhanced Backhaul" marketing: Newegg's tech spec states the MLO backhaul is "shared 5GHz & 6GHz" with fronthaul also on 5/6 GHz, so no band is reserved exclusively for node-to-node traffic — the adaptive/shared-band case the methodology marks false (same as eero TrueMesh and Google Nest Wifi Pro). Price $699.99 MSRP (NETGEAR original price and Newegg both $699.99; NETGEAR current promo $629.99); Newegg's "First Listed on Newegg October 09, 2024" supports the 2024 release year.
