Hi,

I am currently using PowerLine to get hardwired internet access to two rooms in my house. My current WiFi reaches, but has two bars less showing on my iPhone, and the Switch can't see the SSID. https://kb.netgear.com/000051205/What-is-Ethernet-backhaul-and-how-do-I-set-it-up-on-my-Orbi-WiFi-System 📡

I'm also looking to get a Ring camera outside my house, where my current WiFi is not strong enough.

 

What I am looking to do is replace the PowerLine with Orbi as I like the idea of the WiFi 6 backhaul, whcih should also provide WiFi for the Ring cameras.

 

My concern is that inside the house, there may be too much overlap between the main router (in the center of the house), and the two satellites (one at the front, and one at the back). Could this cause me an issue, and is it possible to reduce the range \ power of the satellites or the satellites and the router? Yes

30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Also, if I use them as AP's, can I still keep a custom IP address range? Yes. 

 

Oh, and I'm based in the UK if that makes any difference.
