R7000p router with Orbi 4200
Two story house with fiber coming in through basement. Hoping to use the following setup: Basement: modem to r7000p (WiFi off) wired to First floor: Orbi 4200 base (set up as AP) First/second floor...
Thanks for the confirmation. Is the wired backhaul all or nothing? Meaning I need to wire all satellites back to the Orbi base or will it still help if I have 1 satellite wires back to base and the other is wireless?

Any combination is acceptable. Some can be WiFi, others can be ethernet. Another satellite can Daisy Chain off of an existing satellite with either ethernet or WiFi no matter how that first satellite is connected.
