Satellite configuration with Orbi Router RBR850
I am looking to get an Orbi RBR850 router, and I want to hook up three satellites - two RBS850s and one RBS50Y outdoor satellite. Might there be any issues with this configuration or should it work fine? Thanks.
If I remember the AC3000 outdoor satellite will work in the extender mode with AX6000, due to the differences in technology between the AC and AX, but will not work in Orbi mode.

RBS50Y needs to be configured for extender mode to work with Orbi AX.
Please post about this over in the Orbi AX forum:

Good Luck.
