Orbi router [RBR50] and 2 Orbi satellites [RBS50] in a Daisy chain limits?
Dear Netgear,
How many satellites can you Daisey chain. Currently I have two and am wondering if the following scenarios are possible:
a- buy one extra RBS50 and have Router > sat 1 > sat 2 > sat 3.
b- buy one extra RBS50 and have Router > sat 1 > sat 2 AND Router > sat 1 > sat 3.
c- buy two extra RBS50s and have router Router > sat 1 > sat 2 AND Router > sat 2 > sat 3.
Has anyone any experience of this configuration?
Kind regards,
Tristan

The wireless backhaul allows many possibilities. But each jump in the node is going to add some latency. If its possible, here's how I'd do it.
Sat 1<------sat2<--------Router---------->sat3---------->sat4
This would only be a single hope, daisy chain setup. Sat 1/4 still get a little extra latency but not bad. Kind of a combination daisy chain/star configuration.
I've never ran more than router------sat1------sat2 setup because my home isn't large enough to need another satellite at the end and its worked well.
