Extend RBK852 with RBS20s

Hello

 

I am just about to buy a RBK852 kit but are a litle worried after reading threads here.

 

Today I have a RBK52 with two extra RBS20s, doing almost the job except for handling the Gigabit uplink.  

Will I be able to connect by ethernet backhaul my two extra RBS20s to the RBK852?

 

Is there any kind of "childmode" DNS or Disney available?

 

 

  • Yes, you can connect the RBS20 satellites wired to the new RBR850 router. Wireless support will come later.

    Disney Circle is not yet supported in the new Orbi AX but should come soon, I hope.

    Meanwhile you can use the site blocking and blocking schedule in the web GUI for parental control.

      Thank you, then I will go for this.

       

      Just hope the new config will be as stable as the old one.
