Will do. Thanks for the tip. Does it connect into the existing 5Ghz backhaul channel of the existing Orbi system to get the internet feed and then distribute via its own 5Ghz and 2.4 Ghz channels? I guess it does as it is tri band. For my 2 orbi satellites I have one connected via etghernet, and one connects via 5ghz back haul. Will the EX7700 work in the same fashion as the second satellite i mentioned.
Thanks, but of a novice so appreciate the assistance!

I don't believe it will, I believe the EX7700 2nd 5Ghz radio is for routers with tri band front haul signals. The Orbi is only for back haul and with in the Orbi system between the RBR and RBS only, which is not accessible for anyone.
