Netgear’s RBK853 and RBK753 Orbi Complete Residence are similar. The RBK853 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System has better wireless speeds, more simultaneous connected devices, more simultaneous streams, more LAN ports, and a faster WAN port than the RBK753 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System. In terms of network coverage, security mechanisms, home automation connectivity, technical specifications, and service and warranties service, these two Tri-Band Mesh Systems are comparable leaving only the speed being the difference.
If your internet service provider allows it, we recommend obtaining the RBK853 so you can make use of the increased capacity to receive better Wi-Fi speeds as well as more connected devices and simultaneous streaming.

Difference
The amount of satellite mesh nodes provided in the package is the main difference between the two systems. The rbk 752 comes with a single satellite and a single router. The former, designated RBK753, is equipped with an extra satellite. These gadgets are all about speed, as one would expect from a Wi-Fi 6-capable router and mesh system. In reality, up to eight streams can be maintained at the same time. Each 5GHz and 2.4GHz channel is available, with both allowing 2 x 2 MIMO. A 4 x 4 5GHz link serves as the backhaul for the third band in the tri-band setup.
However, the overall networking infrastructure is designed to accommodate additional devices that are hard-wired. The setup has a single Gb Ethernet (GbE) WAN port on the router. Three GbE LAN ports are provided in the package. In comparison, the satellite mesh node only provides two GbE LAN connections.
