Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

The reason I want to use the Router as an AP is because the Modem is tucked away in the furnace room and there's really no use for the ORBI to sit in there - it would also place the ORBI Router right below an ORBI satellite which is upstairs.

I bought an Unmanaged Switch with no "green features" other than cable length power management. This one specifically: D-LINK DGS-1024D

Thanks for the advise! I will let you know how the install goes!
