what is different between RBR20 and RBR40
Hi,
I know RBR20 only 1WAN port and 1LAN port, RBR40 more LAN port, RBR20 size smaller, apart from that, what is different?
Thanks in advance.

Apart from what you mentioned, and looking to the physical size of the boxes, the antennas' size in the RBR40 seem to be bigger than those in RBR20 and similar to those in RBR50 which means better coverage. I compared the RBR20 and RBR50 and I could clearly see the difference in radio coverage, so I guess the same will apply to RBR20-RBR40.
On the other hand, both RBR20 and RBR40 have the same throughput and backhaul capacity (AC2200)

Thanks all,
I think RBR20 is good in terms of size and price, but I still concern the heat problem of RBR20 itself as the size smaller than RBR40.
I used to other brand homeplug, in summer it over heat and lead it unstable~:smileysad:
