2 orbi kits
hi, i live in switzerland.i figured that i need 1 base and 2 satellites for my home
Orbi is only available in kits consisting of 1 base and 1 satellite.
-if i buy 2 kits will i be able to use the satellite in the second kit as a third unit for my home network.
-in scenarios where i need to reset the router etc will i have issues with the second satellite or will it fit right back in automatically in the network
(i plan to give the redundant second base to my sister to use as a standard router)

as far as i know its possible but it wont be detected on initial setup and you will have to manually sync it once the initial setup is complete
