RBK752 compatibility

Hello, I would really like to know that if I bought the new mesh752 kit if I can use my old satellites that came with my RBK40 ((RBS40)) that way I could set up the routers (twin pack) in the both floors and have satellites further away too?
Anybody who can give a definite answer would be greatly appreciated as these are very expensive. Hope you can help? Thanks

    I'm going to guess NOT.  The 752 is a WIFI6 system whereas the RBK 40 is not.

     

    BTW...there is a seperate section in this forum for the WIFI6

    You can only Ethernet connect the RBS40 to Orbi AX systems.
