RBS750 and long range reception
Hello all, I have my house all set up with the RBS750 WiFi 6 system with 3 satellites. I have a shed 400 feet away that I want to have on the wifi network so I can remote connect to the computer out...

You'll need either long CAT#A STP cable however that only goes to around 330feet in a run with out any amp'g. Or This would be recommended.
If the antenna is on same network as the Orbi it should pass thru remote desktop conations once the antenna is connected to the Orbi. I'd take a look again if that antenna could be using a different subnet network, this would cause problems.
Might review this and see though not sure if it's available anymore:

Yeah no way to use CAT cable for hardwire, needs to be wireless. The antenna is connected to CCRane's Vector router that rebroadcasts the signal it receives from the house wifi, and the rebroadcast is a different network (SSID).

Ah...ok. So there is another router there. You might see if there is a DMZ or IP pass thru option on there router that you could put your PC in and see if this helps get the remote desktop connection working thru there router to the Orbi system.
