Is it possible to input two internet connections?
Is it possible to input two internet connections, one for router and one for satellite?
Distance between the two makes connection weak/slow. My goal is to get one wifi network on our house/yard. I get connection slots (ethernet ports) on almost every room.
The distance between satellite and router can not be shortened.
Thanks in advance.

Orbi does not support dual WAN internet ports.
- Thanks. I dont mean two different isp. My internet connection is spread to different rooms, I can get the connection from ethernet port from any room.
The problem is that I would like to have one big wifi network over our house and yard, but the satellite orbi gets only weak signal from router orbi. If I could plug the ethernet cord to satellite orbi, this would fix the problem because it would get fast speeds too.If your house is wired with Ethernet, simply plug both your Orbis into the network sockets and they will communicate via wire. That's what I do and it works fine. It may take several minutes for the Orbis to notice the connection change, so be patient.
