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.
Here updated config, what do you think about? It's going to work for Ethernet Backhaul?
Thx for the time you are wasting helping me
Goal! It works!
Thx everyone helped here
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Already done, thanks for the advice.
I want to share another point: After linking Orbi Router - Switch Nr1 - and Switch Nr2 I can revert back to the first config posted removing Switch Nr1 and Orbi keep it's wired backhaul.
Maybe it's because Switch Nr2 acquired Orbi Router Mac address and updated its table?
Yes and it should persist thru the power cycle as well. Just moved from two switches to one is all. As long as your 2.5Gb is connected to same switch, it should still get 2.5Gb rates as well.
I can confirm: It persist even after power cycle
Kewl. Enjoy now. 🥂
