Convert Orbi 870 router to a satellite?

Hello Annoosse​ ,

Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!

I understand that you would like to extend your network coverage range by adding another router to your network. Though using the second router in AP mode can extend your network it will not work as a whole mesh system solution. Establishing a seamless network using two routers will take advanced network configuration. It is recommended to use a satellite that is compatible with your RBE870 which in this case is the RBE870 satellite.

Best,
