Does anyone know if any of the other models are compatible, maybe the RBS50 v2 ?

Any info would be much appricated.

Thanks

New RBS50 satellites are available on Netgear's website https://www.netgear.com/orbi/rbs50.aspx.

There are also many used ones available on many sites. You can choose an pretty much an AC line of Orbi. But the RBS is more powerful than most of the other AC systems. 

Currently Netgear has the RBS40V tri-band satellite for $99.00. That is a great price. And the fact that it is a great sounding speaker with Alexa, is a plus.

OK, I would search various websites there for new and used compatible Orbi AC#### satellites.
