RBR50 and adding satellites
I have an Old 1900 Victorian Home 2300sqft that I'm sure has Lead paint here and there.. I bought the RBR50 with the Satellite and it seems like my coverage isn't as good as I want it to be. I'm gues...

So each Satellite is feeding off the router?
Presenty my router is at the front of the house and the one Sat. is toward the other end.
I was hoping it would sort of Daisy chain from each other.
If I was to hard wire the furthest one from the router and one stand alone satellite in the middle, would that work?

In my case my network architecture is set up as a hub and spoke system with the orbi as the hub. All satellites report directly back to the router.
You can easily implement your daisy chain where one satellite plays man-in-the-middle relaying between the router and a third satellite.
Anytime you hard wire it will be better/faster/simpler
