Hello everyone. I have a three bedroom apartment that is approx. 1,500 square feet. The only [active] coaxial hookup is in one corner of the apartment. It's not an ideal spot, but it's what I have to work with. I am planning on getting the RBK50 (router + one satellite). I wanted to use the satellite to hard-wire my entertainment system (TV, Bose system, PS4, etc.). I am worried that if I do that, the rest of my place won't have ample coverage. 

 

My wife and I are expecting our first child in a few weeks and we purchased an Arlo Baby. I am especially concerned that there won't be ample coverage for the video/audio streaming that the Arlo Baby will require. 

 

I've attached a floor plan of my place. The star is where the router has to go. S1 is where I'd like the satellite to go. S2 is where I would put a second satellite (if necessary). The baby's room is the 10' 12'4" room in the bottom right corner.

 

My questions for you all are:

 

1. Do I need a second satellite? 

2. If I do, is my proposed layout ok? 

3. Could adding a second satellite hurt my performance at all? 

 

Thanks, in advance, for your help!
