I have two surplus used-but-functional Orbi RBS50 satellite units. I have just installed a new Nighthawk MR80/MS80 1-router, 2-sattelite Mesh network. Can I add those surplus Orbi satellites to my Nighthawk Mesh network to extend the network throughout my unattached garage and shed? Are they compatible? If so, what configurations or settings and what process would I need to use to make that happen? I am using one SSID and password for both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz segments. I am using the default wireless backhaul. I am not using a guest network. Thank you in advance for your help.
