RBS850 compatibility with RBR750
Hi,
I have an RBR750 system with 2 RBS750 satellites. We've moved to a bigger house and the system isn't quite covering the whole property. You can't seem to buy additional satellites for the 750 systems any more so I'm wondering if I a RBS850 could be added to the system. Would this work?
FURRYe38 Finally seem to have it fixed. The issue with the FW was that I was trying to update the RBS850 to V7.2.6.21 as that's what the 750 system is on but the V7 for the 850 is V7.2.6.31. Have now updated the 850 successfully to V7 and everything seems to be working as it should.
For some reason though, I can no longer log into the web UI for the 850 satellite since updating it to V7.2.6.31

What the size of the home?
Know that the Orbi systems are meant for indoor use and some out side of the home use, depending on home size and placement. Not meant to cover acreage out side of the home.
It's big enough that my current system has a dead zone at the rear of the house (inside) so I just want to double check if I get a RBS850 it could be added to the current 750 system. The compatibility table suggests it would but I just wanted to check with the guys and gals on here.
There a size in sq feet?
