Hello Winterstorm ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that you would like to add additional satellites to your RBK853.
FURRYe38 is correct, the satellites must have the correct firmware installed for optimal network compatibility.
We recommend a maximum of 4 satellites for Wi-Fi 6 Orbi Mesh systems.
