RBR50 vs RBR50v2
I have an option to keep either RBR50 or RBR50v2. Assuming RBR50v2 is just revised model to keep manufactoring cost down with mem and port differences which one should I keep? Need help in deciding. ...
In practice, they are identical. You are correct that Netgear reduced the memory in the v2 model, most likely because they discovered it was not being used. The Orbi's will use the same amount of electricity, whether the power supply is rated at 2.5amp or 3.5amp.
Support for mounting a USB stick will never happen.
If I were in your position, I would keep the second one as a spare. (which, in fact, I did by purchasing one on eBay.)
