The statellite is pricey also.
What a joke, they have satellites but it won't be released untll March. Does Netgear not realize that this is a mesh system which consists of more than router and 1 satellite for a lot of customers. Why release a mesh system without having satellites available for it.

At that Amazon link at the bottom in the "suggestions" (on how they can take more of your money), the Linksys Velop pair is the same price as the Orbi pair. But the Orbi Satellite is cheaper than the Velop by $20. But it's cheaper . . .
