How can I sync my RBR50 with EX7500

I used to have my AC1900 + EX7500 configuration.  However, it was not very stable.  The communication between AC1900 and EX7500 drops very often.  Recently I decided to upgrade my router to RBR50.  The RBR50 works very well, however, I want to use the EX7500 to increase the coverage and performance.  Just wonder if there is a way to use EX7500 as satellite for RBR50?  Thank you.

    Yes they will work together but the ex7500 will not show up as a satellite for orbi.

      I have successfully connected both 2.4 and 5 GHz on the EX7500 to RBR50.  Is that right configuration?  Should I connect only 5 GHz only to make it as a fastlane?  By the way, my laptop sometimes keeps the WiFi connection, but it losts the Internet connection for seconds.  It's anything wrong for my configuration?

        If you are seeing speed issues you can try fastlane to improve that.
