RBK50 Initial Setup Question with Arris SB8200
Hi Guys,
I searched for a bit and couldn't quite find the answer I was looking for (or maybe I did, but the lingo was over my head). I just got the Orbi RBK50 3-pack and I'm getting ready to set it...

Awesome, thanks for all the great information! I just set up the Orbi today, initially wasn't impressed (the speeds were slower than the TP-Link router it replaced), but after about 30 minutes speeds were much improved. Getting around 450 mbps down on WiFi at home router, 350 mbps in the basement upstairs, haven't tried with ethernet yet.
Question for you though, is there a specific ethernet port I should plug into the satellite from the home router? None of them are labeled for internet.
Thanks!

The Yellow marked port in back is always for Internet or ISP Modem connections. All the other ports in back, the Black ones are LAN ports. Any of them will work.
