Extra satellite for the Orbi RBR50v2
We have a set of 1x RBR50v2 with 2 sattelites Want to expand the system with 1 extra sattelite Does Netgear sell the RBS50v2 satellite for the Orbi RBR50v2 separate?
the v2 means that the RBR HW as modified I believe only. The RBS remained the same and any RBS50 v1 or otherwise will connect to the RBR50v2. If you can find them, look on NGs store site or Amazon. Seems like the Orbi AC series is becoming limited in supply.
Other RBS that you can use is RBS20, RBW30, RBS40v(oice) and in a pinch, EX7500, 7700 or 8000 extenders work as well.
