RBR750 with RBR50 in AP Mode
Would that pairing work? I was thinking of getting the RBR750 on ebay and using my current RBR50 as the satellite. The 750 is wifi6 and the 50 is only wifi5 so idk if they're compatible or not.

Thought would not integrate as a MESH satellite, you can use the RBR50 as a wired in AP using far separate channels and SSID names for additional coverage.

When you say far separate channels do you mean like put the 750 2.4GHz band on channel 1 and the 50 on channel 11? And 5GHz band on 36 and 48? I'm a noob when it comes to this stuff so any help/info is much appreciated. Also i want to upgrade my router to Wifi 6 because i'm about to update to a Wifi 6 capable phone so yeah i want the best possible device for it.
