Does RBS50 have a better contact to the RBK50 as the RBS30?
Hello, I am using an Orbi RBK50 set and would like to add another satellite. The ground floor is to be reached from the 2nd upper floor. I have contact with an RBS30, but the connection keeps breakin...

I have the RBS50 (part of the RBK50 kit) and a RBW30 Wall plug satellite. The RBS50 is AC3000 while the RBW30 is AC 2200.
I have found that the RBS50 performs much better when positioned in a downstairs room (immediately under the router, upstairs) than the RBW30 did. So yes - I'd say that the RBS50 does maintain a better connection.
If you're pushing the boundaries (longer distances or challenging wall construction) then I'd go for a RBS50.
