How far away can you place the Orbi Satellite?
I have a detached garage with a guest apartment above. It sits about 80 feet from my existing Comcast modem and Apple router in my 3500 SF house. I have tried two Netgear extenders with poor results....
Hello Markinportland
Each unit can cover up to 2000 sq feet this will vary based on your environment. Also later on when we are selling individual satellites you can have up to 3 satellites with the one base.

I bought the Orbi 750 and 3 satellites my home is 91 feet long so I have my router in middle and one satellite placed at each end of house I also have a garage which is approximately 150 feet across the road from my home and the router and my garage has excellent service also all through my home also has great service. So you can place a satellite 150 feet away from router with great results Orbi
If you plug a satellite into power in the garage and it gets a "blue ring light" and reports the backhaul link is "good", then yes.
(This is not typically what happens.)
