Netgear RBK50v
The Netgear orbi rbk50v is currently on sale for $199 on amazon and Netgear website. Is this still a capable router or is it outdated? Should I look at other routers instead of this router?
This is a (sort of weird) combinationi of a RBR50 router with an Alexa voice satellite. https://www.netgear.com/orbi/rbk50v.aspx The Orbi "AC" product line was first submitted to the FCC for approval in 2016, which makes the design 4-5 years old. I have an RBR50 router and RBS50 satellite, am happy with them, and plan to keep them for at least another two to four years before upgrading to the WiFi6 technology. Maybe with Netgear. Maybe with someone else.
So, "yes, if this product will meet your needs, it is a fine package at an attractive price."
Only you can decide if it is right for you.
- Thanks you for the info, along with the other Info I received, I will probably look for something more updated and useful
