Agree, I purchased two RBS850 satellites from the Netgear store website, one on March 24 and the other April 4. I keep checking that page for availability. Hint: Use the 10% coupon code they offer for signing up for Netgear communications.

Is there any info on the max number of satellites that can be added to the RBR852 system? I have not found anything and am running two (the one that came with the router and an additional I bought with my original purchase) but would like to add one or two more.

I also got my extra satellite from netgear and used the 10% code. - FURRYe38May 10, 2020Guru - Experienced User
Has been any offical word from NG on what they support. Others in the Orbi AC forum have posted 6-9 RBS connecterd to one RBR. Something users will have to try to see how many. If users seem to run into problems after setting up the last RBS, then you maybe hitting a max limit with the RBR.
