RBK20 SATELITTE
I wish to add an extra orbi satelitte to my current orbi router for more coverage at home. However, my question is can it be any orbi satelitte or does it have to be the exact same one bought with the RBR20?
Thanks in advance
no, you don't have to use the same satellites from the kit you bought.
you can use:
rbs20
rbw30
rbs40
rbs40v
rbs50
rbs50y
just keep in mind that the 50 series use a wider backhaul. you won't be able to take advantage of that since you have the rbr20 but they'll stil work. just not at the wider backhaul they're capable of.
