Hi
Can you give me some more info please.
I’ve got the orbi rbk81 modem now with the satellites. How do I put it behind my night hawk and get it to work together. Is the orbi plugged into the pan port of the night hawk? Or does it need to to go to the modem and night hawk from the orbi lan. Thanks

You're trying to go?
Modem--->RAX200----->Orbi RBK850?
Is that correct?
If so, put the orbi system in access point mode to prevent a double nat.
The RAX200 won't "integrate" into the system as part of the mesh but it will work as a seperate ssid/network you can use. I usually use mine for IoT devices and for peak performance streaming (because it'll have faster peak speads when you're close to it)
