Tri-band AXE5700 3-Pack (MK93S)
I want to replace my older RBR50 router with 2 satelites. ISP speed 350 MB - 25 devices. Thinking of Tri-band AXE5700 3-Pack (MK93S). Will this work and will this improve yhe performance. Any info appreciated. Rudy

My biggest concern about my RBR50 is that is at EOL and no new security updates are availeble anymore.
EOL for that series just means they aren't making them anymore. Security updates have slowed down (significantly) but its still getting them. And there's more to worry about security-wise from the people using the internet at your home than there is from users hacking your router.
If it was me? I'd keep rolling with what you have and wait for wifi 7 devices to cause the Wifi 6/6e devices to drop in price.
If its still maxing out your speeds and performing well, I wouldn't worry to much.

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
Yes.
My home is about 2800 sft. One level with a basement. Router in basement and a satelite on level.
I am also wondering about 2.4 GHZ smart devices. Like garagedoor opener. lights, etc will they reconnect to
the new router if I set it up with same SSID and pw.
