I also bought the RBR852 from Best Buy on 10-24-19. I exchanged it for another RBR852 thinking there was something wrong with it. I have an RBS50Y which now doesn't work.

This product is not ready for the novice as you must tweak every setting to get it to work right. Only my old outdoor Satellite issues remain. But a ton of good points were made by EchostormFury.
Orbi AC RBSs won't work currently with Orbi AX wirlessly. Only wired RBSs will work. NG will probably make the Orbi AC RBS compatible in a future FW update.
