I'm looking forward to setup my home network. I'll be connecting an unmanaged non green gigabit ethernet switch to my Orbi router. To this switch I will be connecting 5 Orbi satellites.
1. Which one would be better RBS750s with RBR850 vs RBS750s with RBR750 ?
*I'm trying to put RBR850 so that over a period of time if I feel the need for RBS850, so I could replace the same. In this case can I have a network with RBR850, some RBS750s and some RBS850s.
What would be the best option for optimum efficiency?
*Note I'm not asking for a pure setup with RBR850 with RBS850s
2. Which switch shall I use for connecting Router(RBR 750/850) to Satellites?

Re: RBR850 with RBS750
The main difference is AX4200 is 600 + 1200 + 2400 and the AX6000 is 1200 + 2400 + 2400.
That's a 2.4GHz connection rate of 600Mbps vs 1200Mbps, but you might not be using 2.4GHz anyway, since multiple sources of 5GHz are usually better than one long range, congested 2.4GHz connection.
Then the local 5 GHz connection bandwidth available doubles from 1200Mbps to 2400Mbps, and finally the 2400Mbps for the wired backhaul remains the same.
Additionally, the AX6000 has support for 2.5Gbps ethernet from the WAN whereas AX4200 maxes at 1Gbps.
You can use the 7 series RBS with the 8 series RBR.
Sure sure that D-Links DGS-105/108 series and HP Procurve 1400/1800 series work with Orbi AX. I'm waiting on a 3rd NG switch to arrive so I can test out NGs GS105/108 series which are reported to work as well.
