Possible connection between the two satelites of Orbi RBK853?
Do the satelites connect with each other or does the connection need to go from the main router to the individual satelites? I am asking this becase I only have the option to connect the router on one side of the house and need two satellites in a raw. E.x. the first satellite will be 30 ft from the router and the second satellite 30ft from the first satellite or 60ft from the router. Will all two satellites work properly? House of 5,000 sqft.
Can I use this model when moving back to Europe? Any compatibility issues to be considered? Are they bivolt? Thanks!

In a Daisy Chain they should work well. Mine work well however are not in a daisy chain in my 5000sq ft home. The farthest RBS should connect to the next closer RBS thats near the RBR.
I would contact NG support to see if they are officially supported in the EU.
The EU uses some different channels than we do here in the US, so you may run into some issues there.
You'll have to check the Input voltage requirements on your AC adapters to see if they are universal or not. The ones that came with my Orbi RBK852 are US only, much to my surprise, though this is not an issue for me.
Good luck!
