I am planning to move to a new house where I have the option to put the satelites very high, almost near the ceiling (like in a coridor and provide WIFI to couple of rooms).
My questions is:
1. Does the RBS20 WIFI wave pattern is ok to use when the unit is mounting high above the floor?
2. Can I connect another Netgear satelite from a different type? I.E, I saw the business line has couple of options for ceiling mounts. I would like to avoid buying a new router just to hook one ceiling satelite.

I doubt you will notice much difference with the satellites mounted high. Dipole antennas have a pretty broad coverage area.
Would think that electrical outlets "up high" would be more of an issue.
Alas, no. The Orbi product lines are not interoperable.
