Orbi RBK53 latest hardware
Planning to purchase the Orbi RBK53 mesh system, and would like to order today, if I can. (I have a couple of days off work this coming week to work on set-up.)
I have a few outstanding questions posted yesterday, but will take these as it comes, I think.
Checking with various vendors, hardware identification is unclear. I simply need to figure out how to tell if I'm buying the latest hardware.
Netgear website indicates a version 2, noted:
RBR50v2 (router)
RBS50v2 (satellites)
I've not found these model numbers on Amazon or any other vendors!
Seeing RBK53S-100NAS on more than one source
Also finding RBK53S and RBK535 on Amazon vendors now.
I am confused by these varied designations.
Any clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Netgear support website will have this information. Just type rbk53 and you should see 3 versions availble. RBK53S-100NAS is from Costo, which is same as RBK53v2. RBK53 is the first generation/version.
- RBK53
- RBK53S
- RBK53v2
Good luck and welcome for Orbi family!
