RBK850 / AX6000 compatibility with RBS50v2
I recently upgraded my Mesh WIFI system to the Orbi AX6000 router with 2 AX600 satellites. I have 2 Orbi RBS50v2 satellites left over from my prior setup. Are the RBS50v2 compatible with the RBR850...

I used my RBS50's (two of them) in a wired backhaul config for more than a year with my RBR850 and 1 x RBS850 and they worked pretty well together.
I just recently replaced them with RBS850s (for a total of three satellites -- All 850s now) and the system is working flawlessly. I passed those satellites on to a friend with an RBR50, so it was a win-win all the way around.
