Orbi add on satellites
Currently using the Orbi RBR20 AC2200 router with one RBS20 satellite that came with it. Need another satellite however can't seem to be able to purchase them anywhere and the netgear website says out of stock. Is there any new Satellites that will be compatible with the older models, or will I need to buy a whole new system?

It depends where you are located. Here in Europe I can still find Orbi AC satellites at reasonable prices.
With the RBR20 you can use any of the AC satellites like: RBS10, RBS20, RBW30, RBS40, RBS50, RBS40V (with integrated Alexa), RBS50Y (outdoor).
I usually have people watch amazon renewed for kits. You can get the router and 2 satellites renewed for usually cheaper than just the satellties. That gives you the satellites to use. Plus then you have a backup router. Nothing worse than having the router go bad and a bunch of satellites you can't use.
