note - even if the rbw30 had 1733M backhaul it wouldnt be usable as the rbw30 has no ethernet and only wifi and max wifi speed is 867M on 5 gig

Eh - that depends. With more than one satellite sharing the backhaul, you'd start buffering if both ran full-tilt unless you had the faster backhaul. Fatter wireless backhaul does have use beyond Ethernet relay.

its a marginal increase at best and only for a single device on each sat if you have 2 as almost no one has that sort of demand 24/7
