Can RBS350 be used as satellite to RBR50?
I have a RBR50 router, and can't find any new RBS50 satellites atm (sold out and no new on the way). Can the RBS350 connect at satellite? I understand that it wont work with full specs, but I dont need that.

You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk). (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)
Many questions apply to different types of device, you might get responses here, but things like compatibility of Orbi stuff is a bit specialist, so you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:
Orbi - NETGEAR Communities
I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

As a satellite connected over WiFi - No.
As a satellite connected over ethernet - Maybe.
Generally,, the only satellites that are guaranteed to work with the oribinal RBR50 router are:
RBS20, RBS40, RBS50, RBW30, RBS40V, and RBS50Y
(RBS10, any "Pro" or "Ax" satellites are not.)
