they did mention on release of the RS700 but they didn't say if it'd be specific to that device, for all the RS devices, or if they'd be interoperable. And that was a year ago. I wouldn't hold my breath.
Are these 1-2 locations needing "the fastest" speeds that a RS series would provide? Or just coverage for devices to be used?
A used EAX80 can be picked up pretty reasonable 2nd hand and provide quite a bit of speed for additional coverage. Or even a EX8000 with its dedicated backhaul. With proper setup, they should hit in excess of 300-400mbps. (I've hit that with them). Again, that speed is very dependent on your home/setup/speeds but with 4k streaming only needing 25-40mbps, it should provide quite a bit of coverage enhancement.
