Cannot find Orbi RBK53 with RBSv2 satellites to buy

Might contact NG support to see.

I'm looking to purchase an Orbi RBK53 system. I notice there is now an RBS53v2 (version 2) so I figured if I should buy that one since it's the latest.

Source, reference, ... ?  The RBK53 is a kit of three devices, one RBR50, two RBS50. As such, there is no RBS53.

Netgear misleadingly announced "Orbi with Wi-Fi 6 is expected to be available on the Orbi RBK50 series in the second half of 2019."[1], and of course the media picked up and stated "Wi-Fi 6 wireless compatibility will be introduced to Netgear’s RBK50 series of hardware later in 2019. No word on when, or if, the other Mesh products will pick up the upgrade."[2]. Somehow I doubt that existing hardware will be upgradeable to Wi-Fi 6. "Netgear’s Orbi mesh router system is one of our picks for the best wireless routers money can buy, and it’s set to get a lot better, with the company announcing at CES 2019 that it will be releasing a new version of the Orbi RBK50 series with some seriously upgraded features." [3] That sounds more resonable, and that might lead to a v2 product line (and many unhappy customers).

Is this what you are talking of?
