Orbi AX6000 and outdoor satellite compatability question
I have Orbi AX6000 system (Router and 2 x Satellite Extenders).
I would like to increase the range outside of my property for external Cameras i have fitted that have a drop in / drop out connection as they are on the edge of the network.
I have seen the question asked about would the RBS50Y Outdoor Satellite work with this setup but can't find an up-todate answer.
So the question i have is -
Is the Orbi Outdoor Satellite (RBS50Y) compatible with the Orbi WiFi 6 System (RBK852) AX6000?
If not is there any other options that could work to help achieve what i'm looking to do maybe another brand extender that would work or will Netgear make a similar outdoor satellite that will be compatible?

If you load up the RBSY with the extender mode FW, it will work with Orbi AX.
Is this verified? I was planning on upgrading to the AX6000 and talked to a Netgear rep before I did – she said it wouldn't work currently, but that they're working on a solution.
Someone posted not to long ago same question and they reported back saying it worked. You can do a search here to check that.
