Does Orbi RBR50 speed up the internet
Can the Orbi RBR50 Router & sattelite speed up internet ? and can you also use Netgear AC2200 tri band extender inbetween the Orbi router & satellite to extend signal to an outside location ?

Perhaps if you describe the situation, people can offer suggestions. i.e. There is an existing Orbi network and the goal is to .....?
For example, WiFi radios "radiate" omnidirectionally. So, an Orbi placed on the outside wall of a house, will project a signal "outside". That's how my patios get WiFi from my Orbi. 100 ft away? No way.

I have an existing Orbi router & sattelite set up but want to use an extender after the satellite to extend the signal to an outdoor room in my backyard.
Is this possible ?

Sonething you can try to see if it will connect. Some extenders may not connect or be compatible.
