Hi alayman,
Welcome to our community!
I suggest you to purchase another Orbi Pro satellite rather than purchasing a wireless AP. So that it will be easier for you to synchronize it with the Orbi Pro router.

I like that idea as well, but it would mean that the new satellite would connect to the existing satellite. I thought each satellite needed to connect to the router. Assuming the satellites can connect to each other, is there any special setup necessary or do I just do it like I did the first satellite - which was very easy by the way...

Ok, but that means that the original response is incorrect. Whatever I buy new needs to be able to connect to the exisitng satellite. Based on your last response, that is not possible. So the only solution is to purchase a wireless AP?
