Here's the orbi compatibility chart. https://kb.netgear.com/000065169/Which-Orbi-routers-and-satellites-are-compatible
Other satellites would work as well if you can't find an RBS50

You can connect the RBS50 to the CBR via ethernet and see if it gets an IP address from the CBR, if so, use this IP address to try to log into the RBS web page using admin and password as the log in for the RBS.&nbsp;
What FW is on the CBR?&nbsp;
