What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.
I would start here:

3 floor house, you may need a 50 series. I have a 40 series with just one base and just one satellite, two floors, 5000sq ft home, base upstairs at one end and the satellite downstairs at the other end 40 feet in between them.
What is the Mfr and model# of the current ISP modem your using?

I have a 3 floors house with a wired network in almost all the room. What I want is an unique wifi coverage (1 pwd, 1 SSID) and always the best possible connection. Acutally I hafv 3 antenna with different SSID and when I leave a floor, I let connected to the "wrong" network.
I'm thinking about Orbi RBK20 but as the router and satellite communicates with wireless tecnology, I'm not sure that's the best option.
Any advise for me?
thanks in advance
Laurent
