RBR20 Connectivity Question

I have the RBR20 and two satellites. I was wondering if I can plug Ethernet into one satellite and just use wireless with the other satellite.

thanks

      I did try to plug in the on satellite and it did not work. It just said offline. Guess I need to read up some more on how this is done. My RBR20 is plugged into a switch on my 1st floor and I tried to plug in the satellite to a switch on my 2nd floor.

        What switches is it? And a layout of how you actually have it setup helps. 

        How is the rbr connected to the switch? Via lan port? Wan port? 

        What modem/gateway is the rbr connected to?
