SXR80 with Wifi5 Orbi Pro Satellites
From a support article I found, it appears that the Wifi6 Orbi Pro Router (SXR80) is not compatible with the Wifi5 satellites (SRS60 and SRC60). Does that apply to Ethernet backhaul as well, or only Wifi backhaul. I would like to replace a damaged SRR60 with an SXR80, and 100% of my backhaul links are Ethernet.

It applies on both Ethernet backhaul and WiFi backhaul. The Orbi Pro WiFi 6 devices cannot be paired and therefore, incompatible to work with Orbi Pro WiFi 5 devices.
