Will it work together?

I have a 

Orbi Tri-band Mesh WiFi 6 System, 6Gbps Router + 2 Satellites

 

will the satellite of this 

AX4200 WiFi Satellite (RBS750)

 

work with what I have?  All needs to be wireless.  Thanks for your help.  

Trying to do my best here with 2 kids in remote learning because my youngest is a heart patient and the price is cheaper with the rbs750.  If it doesn't just will have to figure out and do it the right way and get the rbs850.  Thanks for your time, patience and help.

  • the 7 series satellites are compatible with the 8 series routers. 

    so you can use that satellite with your router.

      Thanks!!!    2nd question.  About far far in feet on average can the satellite be apart for the signal to go between the unit?  Mine are about 20-25.  I really could use 30-40 between 

       

      Thanks Mike

        20-25 is too close, 30 feet is recommended start distance or more maybe up to 50-60 feet depending.
