Can two RBR50 routers function as Router and Satellite?

RBR units do not support working as a statellite. Only as a main independent wifi router or in AP mode.

Hi All,

 

I just picked up an Orbi RBR50 to see how i like it.  It's great!  I have it in AP mode with my Xfinity modem as the router and its working fine.  I'd like to take the next step and create a mesh network for my home and relegate my Xfinity modem to just being a modem.  While looking at the RBS50 AP's, they are much more expensive than the RBR50 router - more than twice the price!  If I bought another RBR50 could I use it along with my existing RBR50 as Router + Access Point? ie have one RBR50 in Router Mode and the other RBR50 in AP mode?  I have ethernet runs in my home so I can do wired or wireless backhaul, but ultimately would like to keep to one SSID across the house.  

 

Thanks,

 

Pete
