ORBI 970 Overkill? To much saturation?
I just purchased the 3 pack ORBI 970 and it says up to 10k sq feet coverage . My home is a 2 story rancher/4500 sq feet. Will placing all 3 of these cause saturation, should i downgrade to the 2 stat...
Could. Might get the 3 pack and then deploy what you need. save the other RBS for later, or if needed.
Hello Tcrus ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
Start your network with one Orbi satellite connected to your Orbi router. If there are any dead spots, then you may add the second Orbi satellite into your network configuration. Based on your network topology one Orbi satellite and a router will be fine.
Please be sure to follow to the recommended Orbi placement in the link below:

So would adding the 2nd sattelite interfere cause saturation/slower speeds? I am in a bind because the 3pack was on sale and sale is off so the price for the 2 pack is about the same!!!
