RAX200 + Orbi best practice
I currently own a RAX200 for my one bedroom apartment. It's amazing. I just bought a 5 bedroom house (2300 sqft) and have CAT6 run to every room. Sonic Fiber Modem is in garage. I have 9 ethernet...
Thank you. This is exactly the type of info I was looking for. Very helpful. I am also considering the Nighthawk Mesh WiFi 6 system - I know it's not TriBand, but might be all I need for extra coverage to rest of house. Most of my devices will be hardwired via Gigabit lines anyway. Orbi might be overkill. I assume with the Nighthawk Mesh the idea is exactly the same, run the main in AP, and then chain the Satallites to it. Although there aren't enougn ports on the Nighthawk to backhaul each one via wrired. hmmm...
running them with the wired backhaul is ideal since its just the dual band system. A cheap gigabit switch would fix the port issue.
