Feature Request: Orbi Satellite Ethernet Backhaul
As good as Orbi looks on paper I don't understand Y you would cut yourself so short and not support Eithernet backhaul for the satellites, I have 5 locations needing a system like this but without su...
Let me acknowledge that our customer base has been clamoring for this feature for a while, and we are trying to be responsive to their needs. To provide context on why it's taking a while to get it out, during the first quarter, the Orbi Engineering team was focused on bringing out the two new products (RBK30 & RBK40) to market. Now that it's accomplished, we're actively working on bringing this feature and a couple of other interesting, market-requested features to you.

I gave up on waiting. The google wifi is cheaper and works a treat. Sorry Netgear, I felt releasing without this feature really tricked a lot of people into expecting something we assumed was there. Every other system has this, and it's not really complete without it. :(
I was just told by Netgear support that the Orbi RBK53 would support ethernet backhaul, is this correct?
Hello Gabepaul
Ethernet backhaul is on the roadmap to be added at a later date.
