Multiple Devices
I had two homes and now just one. So I have two sets of Orbi AC3000 systems;
2 - RBR50v2
2 - RBS50v2
1 -RBR50
Since this is what I have for the new home I would like to use them.
I have a spectrum Modem and house is wired completely.
Can I use the RBR50 as the Router and set the 2 RBR5-v2's to AP mode connected to the RBR50 Router via network cable?
Connect the RBS50v2 via network cable via netgear switch?
Looking for opinions or possible options using the above gear.
Thanks

Re: Multiple Devices
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
Having too much wifi could be a bad thing...
You can run 1 RBR as your main host router with the RBS, The other RBR could be used in wired APs as long as distances and channels were far apart. You might also run into a situation where the RBS may attempt to connect to the other RBRs in AP mode. Something to avoid.
