"NBN" means Australia? (thanks to Google).
Anything that an Orbi can connect to, a Nighthawk can as well. So, "redundant" seems a bit ominous.
I hope people provide useful comparisons between the Nighthawk mesh and Orbi mesh systems. I have only Orbi.

Yes, Australia. Sorry didn't even think of that. Yes, National Broadband Network (NBN) which is for me 'Fibre to the Curb' and not to the house. From my reading online, this is going to bring our national internet speeds up the the superfast speed the USA had back in the 1990s. I guess that comes to big country, low population :)
The old nighthawk is only ADSL2 compatible, apparently, but not sure if anything new is backwards compatible.
But you are happy with the Orbi CrimpOn ?
Cheers
