Can I connect SRS60 or SRR60 (AP mode) as additional satellites to an RBR850?

Hi, I planning to buy an RBK852, and I happen to have an SRS60 and an SRR60.

Can I connect them to the RBR850 as additional satellites?

 

Please advise if you know for sure if I can do so.


Thank you,


Seif

Not sure if the Pro series is compatible with the Home 8 series systems. I was told my 30 series isn't...

The SRR in AP mode could be however it would be a separate SSID name using different channels and would not integrate into the MESH system of the 8 series system.

@Seif,

 

The Orbi Pro WiFi 5 devices which includes the SRR60 and SRS60 are not compatible to work with any Orbi Home devices such as the RBK852 and RBR850.

 

Also, the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 devices which includes the SXR80 and SXS80 are not compatible to work with any Orbi Home devices such as the RBK852 and RBR850.

Thank you DaneA,

Even with wire backhaul? Still not compatible?
