Additional satellite for RBK30 kit

Hi,

 

I have a RBK30 kit made of a RBR40 router and a RBW30 satellite. I want to add another satellite, the ac-plug-in one, exactly as the RBW30.

 

Questions:

1 - Can it be done?

2 - Which model should I look for? Couldn't find the RBW30

 

Thanks in advance

    yes, you can use any of the satellites but they'll function at the RBR40's backhaul.

    RBS20

    RBW30

    RBS40

    RBS50

    RBS40V

    Retail availability of Orbi satellites appears to be limited  I purchased an Orbi router from eBay, so there may be RBW30's available there.

    Any "residential" Orbi satellite will integrate except the new RBS10 (cheapest) satellites, which of course are easy to find.
