RBK50 paired with Two RBW30
I see some mixed discussions about adding the RBW30 plug-in satellite devices to a RBR50 router. I do not see this combo in any of Netgear's Orbi pre-packged device combos which leads me to beleive t...

The RBW30 satellites are supposed to work with the RBR50 router. However, the backhaul of the RBR50 is 1.7 Gbps and the backhaul of the RBW30 is only 866 Mbps, so you would not be taking full advantage of the RBR50 if you use the RBW30 satellites.

Hello Ulairi
We have released the latest firmware on the auto update server you may try updating all your your units and see if the 30 will stay connected.

Hi DarrnM,
Thanks for that heads-up. I've updated the Wall Satellite from V2.0.0.34 to the new V2.0.1.2 and - so far - all good! No dropouts.
NB - I've got both the RBR 50 router and the RBS 50 satellite at V2.0.1.4 (downgraded from V2.1.0.18 and not yet updated to V2.1.3.4 because I haven't had problems with dropout and don't need the wired backhaul). So this is confirmation that these two versions (V2.0.1.4 for router and V2.0.1.2 for the wall satellite) seem to be compatible.
