Orbi RBK853 compatibility with the RBK53
Does anyone know if I set the Orbi RBK853 as the main router system and use the older RBK53 system as an access point to the newer RBK853 system?
Would it work together as I know the RBK853 is compatiblite with older wifi technology?

The RBK53 would be a separate Wifi mesh system while in AP mode connected to the 8 series Orbi system. Orbi AX is not currently compatible with Orbi AC wifi systems. You can however connect the Orbi AC RBS to Orbi AX systems by using Ethernet connections.
