2 Orbi Routers in 2 Buildings on 1 ATT Fibre is this possible?
I have 2 buildings on my property and have a cat6 cable ran between them. On my ATT Fibre Router one port is going to my Orbi OBR50R router that provides a mesh system for my house. I want to use the...
The 2 buildings are 150 Ft and I own 2 systems. The Wifi just barley reaches the 2nd building at about 10-20mbps. My my cat6 at the other building is getting 800-900 so just thinking in my head why could I not use the 2nd cat6 to either expand what I have with more satellites or new system. My ATT Fibre Router has the wifi disabled and just pushes the internet through to the Orbi and the cat to to my remote building.
It should work fine either way.
What orbi system is it?
Some of the older AC systems can be picked up quite cheap on renewed/refurbed. MIght be worth checking that
Here's the orbi compatibility chart.
