Can you connect more than 4 satellites to the Orbi WIFI 6 Mesh AX4200 when using wired backhaul
Can you connect more than 4 satellites to the Orbi WIFI 6 Mesh AX4200 when using wired backhaul?
I just bought 2 sets from Costco and the forums say you can connect 4 satelllites to the Orbi Pro WIFI 6.
The Tech Support guy i just talked to said you can only connect 3.
The netgear website shows they sell a 4-pack of satellites.
And I have been able to successfully connect 4 satellites so far, 3 using wired ethernet + a 4th one using wireless.
Can I connect more using Wired without any performance issues since they would be using wiredbackhaul only? If so, how many more wired could I install?
Based on only having 1 wireless satellite. could i still install 3 more wireless satellites (so i would have a total of 4 wireless satellites?) in addition to the wired ones that I have?

Netgears own KB articles show up to 6 satellites.

And it actually says you can have more than 6 but it can start degrading performance.
