RBK50: Ethernet Backhaul + Multi Gig
Hi there, I'm in trouble with my new network setup which include a Multigig ISP router (10Gbit GPON) and Orbi RBK50 (1 Router in AP Mode and 2 Sats). My goals are: Keep a multi gig link from ISP ...

If your connecting your 2.5Gb PC to the nr2 switch then this will work to maintain the 2.5Gb speed from the host router to the PC.
You can connect the RBR to nr2 here as well, then connect the RBS if you want it ethernet connected to the back of the RBR or use the D-Link switch in between the RBR and RBS for this segment of the chain.
You could connect the RBR to nr1 switch then behind the RBR, directly connect the RBS or connect the DLink switch behind the RBR then connect the RBS to the DLink switch in this segment.

if you don't expect this to become kind of a 2.5G wired backhaul it's all fine.

No I'm happy with 1G wired backhaul.
Goals are:
- Keep a 2.5G wired connection from ISP to my Workstation
- Keep a 1G wired backhaul for my RBK50 Orbi System
- Invest less money possible to achieve both of them at same time

The Orbi will remain a 1 GbE device even in AP mode. There is no magic to plug a 2.5G network in some fancy random connection sequence or the like. It does not matter of the aggregated wireless backhaul is involved.

But it's ok (for now) 1GB wired backhaul... if I can obtain this I'm going to be happy!
I love the ultra low wifi ping that wired backhaul guarantee and 600Mbit\600Mbit on a mobile device is far enough for my actual needs.

"ultra low wifi ping that wired backhaul guarantee" What tree are you smoking from? How shall we understand "600Mbit\600Mbit on a mobile device" in comparison of talking on a direct wired symmetrical Gigabit Ethernet? Experimenting on LSD?

I don't know why are you using such sarcasm and bad way of talk with people: It's not useful nor put you in a better light. For sure my english is not good as needed to explain me in the proper way, so excuse me.
My iPhone 14 Pro with my old ISP (1000\300) and Orbi wired backhaul reach 450\500 Mbit download and 280 Mbit Upload with average ping of 20ms
My iPhone 14 Pro with my new ISP (10000\2000) and Orbi WIRELESS backhaul reach (more than) 600 Mbit download and (more than) 600 Mbit Upload with average ping of 250ms
For the third time I'm saying A and you answer B. i talk about WiFi ping (with or without wired backhaul) you answer with wired symmetrical ethernet. I ask how to get a 2,5Gbit link PLUS ethernet backhaul (never said 2,5Gbit backhaul) and you answer about magic, cable cat.8. I said I'm happy with 1Gbit backhaul (which gives posted results in mobile devices) and you answer that I'm using LSD... so when I was a mod in a board like this your way of talking with users was called flaming and not tolerated.
Thx in advance for your help
