Nice, we will buy just need to know if it will work with the SXK80?
- These kits have a base (router) plus 1 satellite (sat) or base (router) plus 2 sats.
Sounds like you already have the base (router). If so, you only need more SXS80 units. Those are the sat units. I have not seen 2-packs or 3-packs of those. If you already own the SXK80 base router, pricing is such that it would make little sense to buy a new kit.
Beware Orbi-Pro WiFi 6 SXK80 is not compatible with netgear’s Orbi WiFi-6 for residential (RBK852) nor Netgear’s earlier WiFi Pro models."These kits have a base (router) plus 1 satellite (sat) or base (router) plus 2 sats."
I needed to know if it will work with the SXS80 as I know I can just buy the 1 satellite on amazon. :]
Yes. I have the one SXS80 and one SXR80.
Thanks for the info!

good

Sounds like you as of now have the base (switch). Assuming this is the case, you just need more SXS80 units. Those are the sat units. I have not seen 2-packs or 3-packs of those. In the event that you effectively own the SXK80 base switch, evaluating is to such an extent that it would look bad to purchase another pack
