can I use 2 rbk852 ?

Question

I can buy 2 rbk852 cheaper then 1 rbk853 and now my question is if I can connect them together? and how? does it work without lan cable?

I see. Well for that, you may want to review getting some ethernet cabling installed or maybe go with some power line adapters and connect the RBS to the end of the PL where you need the RBS placed.&nbsp;

Not really.
The two systems would work separately.&nbsp;
Or you could take the RBS from one set and connect them to the other.&nbsp;
The RBRs can only work in router mode or AP mode so you could connect the 2nd RBR however it would be it's own SSID network and not integrate into the other systems MESH.&nbsp;

If its cheaper to buy 2x RBK852's versus one RBK853, I'd do it.&nbsp;
You can use the satellite for the other system and have a backup router in case one goes bad.&nbsp;
Or you could sell the router to recoup some costs.&nbsp;

For this size of home, you'll only need the RBR and 1 RBS, would not need more then 1 RBS. So you shouldn't need two systems.&nbsp;
