Anyone use standalone RBR850?

I am in process of procuring a standalone RBR850 - someone purchased two RBK852s to get additional satelites.      I understand the limitations of using the router without the satelites.  I was wondering if anyone has any experience, results, issues and reviews of just the router in standalone mode.

  • Yes. RBR850 works well as stand alone. Depending on the size if you home and building materials. I presume the RBR alone will suffice. Placement will be key. Central and on a main floor for best coverage. If you need an additional RBS, you can get one later on at some point.
