Adding 3rd RBS 20 Satellite for RBR40
Can a satellite RBS 20 be added to an RBR 40 mess system with 2 satellites all ready working?

Yes. 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router

I recently purchased the RBK50 router and satellite but found that it didn't have quite enough reach for my requirements. So I purchased a RBS20 satellite separately and it works great. No problems integrating with the RBK50. I have strong consistent wifi over the length of my property.
