AC3000 vs. AC2200: Maximum Distance Between Satellites in Daisy Chain Configuration
I am trying to determine whether there is any a material difference between the AC3000 and AC2200 mesh network, if I need to maximize distance between two satellites in a daisy chain configuration.
I can set the first satellite wtihn 30 ft of router. Howevere, I want to run about 60 feet or a bit more rom that satellite to the next. it would be across an open space through two windows..home to garage office.
RBS should not be closer than 30 feet. Any closer and the wifi over lap between the RBR and RBS becomes bad. Causes problems.

This is not 100% true.
The user should be advised to try what works for their specific coverage area. It's NOT a one size (distance) fits all.
Pay attention to the ring color on the Orbi and the Sats, that will be your best gauge for your situation.
