RBK50 Satellites
We have the rbk50 router and one satellite. I’d like to buy an additional satellite to improve-boost coverage in our home.
Which one do I buy? Thanks

The most matching Satellite to your current RBK50 setup is RBS50. This will give you the best wireless backhaul capability (up to 1.7Gbps).
You can also use RBS20, RBS40 or RBW30. All those satellites will give you a backhaul with max 867Mbps capability.
Also the RBS50 will give you the widest radio coverage, after that will come RBS20 and RBS40 and then RBW30 with the least coverage.

Maybe the addition of one satellite could be needed. Ensure it's placed at 30 feet away from the router and the other satellite.
Good Luck.
