    Actually I tried it but couldn't get it to work. I should have stated that originally.

     

    I came scross a great deal at a large national electronics retailer and got the entire 4 piece system (RBK14-100NAS) for $100

     

    I figured since it was an Orbi, I could use the 3 satelites with my existing system but I couldn't get it to pair.

Thanks for letting us know it doesn't work. Now we know.

Well it didn't work for me but I'm hardly a network engineer. I used the Orbi app several times using the "Add a Satelite" option but no luck.
