Is the RBK850 Wifi 6 router backwards compatible with older Orbi satellites?
Is the RBK850 Wifi 6 router backwards compatible with older Orbi satellites? Specifically the outdoor model.
Can you post a link to these specifications? The Product Data Sheet clearly says that both router and satellite have the same three radios:

Sorry I misread the specs. The first radio which is 2.4Ghz does not include AC which is expected but it does include AX interestingly enough. I haven’t read up on AX so was unaware it was capable of using the 2.4Ghz frequency. Radios 2 and 3 are 5Ghz and include the AC/AX. They are the same for both satellite and router. Apologies for misinformation on my end.
