What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? This will ba a factor to consider when setting up a Orbi system. You may need more than just 1 satellite.
Distance between the router and satellite(s) is key as well. 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.

Hi,
My flat is around 1800sq ft and I have 4 rooms all in 1 line. So I am planning the router to be in the room at the edge and then the satellite in the middle room . Distance in between will not be more than 15-20 feet. Walls are also regular bricks and not anything special. That's why I think that 1 Router RBR 50 and one satellite will do the job.
