Daisy Chain 2 Orbi

Is it possible to hook up an orbi on 1st floor as a router with satellites, then run a cable and daisy chain a second orbi to my 2nd floor and have satellites hooked up? I have two large floors all seperated by concrete and would like to get coverage throughout.

Re: Daisy Chain 2 Orbi

The two systems would not be MESHd together. You could use the 2nd RBR in AP mode though it would still be a separate SSID name. 

RBRs can not be used as satellites. 

 

You can do this with RBSs:
