replacing RBK33 with RBK23

I am replacing my RBK33 with RBK23. Will the instalation remove or discard the RBK33 and allow me to load RBK23? Anything I should know or watch out for?

 

Thank you

Don't quite understand your question. 

If installing a new system, reboot the router or device you are connecting to and follow the instrustions for installing a new system.

When replacing the Orbi router with another Orbi router, you would have to configure the router and satellites. But it's a moot point, since you are replacing everythhing.

If the RBK23 system is not new, I would factory reset the router and 2 satellites.

Reset the RBK33, if you are planning on selling it.

Re: replacing RBK33 with RBK23

I recently purchased an Amazon warehouse AC2200 RBK33. I want to replace it with a new AC2200 RBK23. If I understand you,I need to start the installation process with a reboot, the same process I used when I connected the RBK33. Do I need to delete the RBK33 form my iphone app? Anything else I need to be aware of?

Yes the same process as you used with the older Orbi. No
