Orbi RBK 50

Question

Hi, I am currently using a pair of Orbi's RBR50 and a RBS50 satelite hardwired in my house. Can I purchase a second kit, hardwire the second RBR50 from my original RBR router in my house to my gazebo and hardwire the second RBS50 satelite from my main RBR50 router?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

The 2nd RBR50 could be wired to the 1st RBR50. The 2nd RBR 50 would need to be in AP mode and use a different SSID name and different channels on 2.4 and 5Ghz.

The 2nd RBR won't work as a RBS. Will have to be configured for AP mode.&nbsp;Good Luck.&nbsp;
