Orbi RBR50 + satellite
I have an Orbi RBR50 & satellite wifi network setup at home. Working OKish but dead spot in gamer son's bedroom. Bought a Nighthawk X4S Range Extender to try and boost the signal there. Can start up ...
That makes it a repeater by my reckoning, a subset of the extender range. Most extenders can repeat and do genuine access point.
Why does Netgear insist on confusing people with its inconsistent nomenclature?
Might not be the best choice in these circumstances, given that the user already has Powerline.
You might get better answers in the Orbi section:
There is a manual for the Orbi somewhere at the end of this link:
