(First, I did search...)Think this is a good place to post known compatible satellites with the (new) Orbi 770 Home Mesh system (RBE770/771). SO far, I have been able to confirm: RBS750 Please add as you confirm.

It will be a cold day in (you know where) when an RBS750 is 'compatible' with either of the two Orbi WiFi7 systems. The RBS750 is a WiFi6 product. It has no 6GHz WiFi capability of any kind. None. Zero. The Orbi 770 product is a cheaper alternative to the Orbi 970. It has only 2x2 MIMO on three bands, for a total of 6 antennas. The 970 has 4x4MIMO on four bands (one 2.4G, two 5G, and one 6G) for a total of 16 antennas. The 770 costs less than half the 970. It's just not possible for a 750 satellite to connect to a 971 or 771 router. Supposing one could connect them with Ethernet, the 750 will not support WiFi6E or WiFi7 client connections.

350,750, 840, 850 and 860 series are all AX. 950/960 series is AXE. CaidlyReally wrote: Are the RBS750/850 considered AX/AXE?

Thank you for that chart link.It is still not updated (as far as I could read) with the RBE770/771.Hope it will build soon.

Just because the RBS750 series works, may not mean that NG will support it. NG has been known to close those doors later on in FW updates.

    Got you now...
    I only got the info from NG Tech Support this morning. I have not added the RBS750 myself.
