Orbi router in bridge mode over ethernet?
I am need of an Ethernet connection to a satellite in a separate house. Since a sattelite will not support an Ethernet connection, can a second Orbi router be used in bridge mode over Ethernet? Will...

Yes, you could connect a 2nd RBR50 in access point mode at the end of an Ethernet cable in the 2nd house. I would strongly suggest from the 1st Orbi Router. It would have a separate wireless network from the other Orbi system, but that should be fine, being in a separate house and all. And if you need to add a satellite for that separate house, just add it as normal to the router/ap.
