RBK33 extended using RBS50 ?
I have the RBK33 system, with an AC2200 router and two of the smaller wall plug-in satellites. I'd like to add wired Ethernet backhaul.
Can I purchase the RBS50 (AC3000) as an extender and co...
I believe you can use either of them since you will use Ethernet Backhaul. I doubt that RBS50 will work properly with RBR40 if you will use wireless backhaul, so I would avoid adding RBS50 satellite to RBR40 router.
As mentioned earlier, I see no reason for you to get the RBS50 satellite since you have RBR40 router as you will not get out the best out that satellite (wireless backhaul capability of the RBS50 will only be useable together with RBR50 router).
I recommend that you get RBS40 (Option A) or RBS20 to connect to your RBR40. RBS40 is the same as RBS20 but with more ethernet ports (same number of ethernet ports as in RBS50).
