Which devices do I buy Outddor Satellite
I am looking to install an RBS50Y Outdoor Satellite. I am pretty sure I read that I can only connect it to an Orbi Router. Which one do I buy? So far all I seem to find are Kits including th...
Hopefully this helps:
Yes, the Outdoor Orbi (RBS50Y) is only sold as a stand-alone, meaning that you have to purchase an Orbi Router from elsewhere. A couple of suggestions:
1. purchase a kit that contains an Orbi Router (e.g. RBK50 / RBK30 /...) and sell off the extra satellite on a 2nd hand site (e.g. eBay, ...)
2. purchase the Router online in a 2nd hand site. I occasionally see people who have purchased 2 kits, to acqure just the satellites and the Router becomes extra.
FYI, from a purely performance perspective, the RBR50 is the best matched because it's the only Orbi Router that has a 4x4 backhaul.
I will take this back and see if we can create a kit for those like you.
