Orbi AC3000 Tri-band WiFi Router (RBR50v2) and RBK13
Hi - I have an existing Orbi AC3000 system and picked up a new RBK13 system. I was hoping I could just use the satellites in the new system to extend the AC3000 system. Is this possible?

Thanks. Shame on me for believing Netgear's Product Data Sheet or the description on Amazon.
oh, well. I have looked stupid before.

You're not alone. For the longest time I didn't think they worked together until I was corrected by a mod. Its just like the one AX kit where they use a triband router but dual band satellites. Makes me wonder if they've made a way for the dual band satellites to connect to the wireless backhaul of if its connecting to the fronthaul or whats actually going on behind the scenes. topic for another conversation but seems if that is the case, it'd be good to know as the satellites would maintain higher speeds than just the dual bands alone.
