    Here is my set up:

     

    Xfinity coaxial cable goes into C3700-100NAS. Ethernet cable from C3700 to RBK753S-100NAS. Both are act as router.

    My house only has 2200 sq. ft. Maybe it is overkill with the orbi?

     

    C3700 & RBK753S router are next to each other in the main living room.

    1st satellite is one room a apart from the living room.

    2nd satellite is up stair.

     

     


    If the C3700-100NAS is setup as a router, you should probably set the Orbi in AP mode. If not, at least disable WIFI on the C3700-100NAS. The RBK753S-100NAS is a bit powerful for your sq footage. Also you want your satellites and router spread apart at least 30 ft.

    The second satellite upstairs is probably fine taking into consideration you have Floor, wiring, etc factor. You may want to remove the downstairs satellite as it is probably too close, which can cause as much issues as far away.
