Extend wifi
We have Upstair, downstairs and a side building in our House 204 square meters. We have router and one sattelit placed upstairs. We thought that it was enough. But the side building is a wifi dead area. Can we buy an Orbi plug in that works with RBR50 AC3000.

Yes or an additional RBS-50 would probably work well.

- AC3000 Sateliite RBS50
- AC2200 Satellites RBS20 or RBS40
- AC3000 Outdoor Satellite RBS50Y
- AC2200 Satellite with Voice RBS40V
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.
