Is RBS 40 satellite compatible with RBK53-100ES ?
I tried to link my extra bought RBS40 satellite (my third satellite) to my existing Orbi RBK53-100PES home wifi system. But I believe this is not compatible.
What can I do to link and add this single RBS40 to my actual 3 devices (1 router and 2 sats) RBK50-100PES system ?
Thanks !

Hi, my experience is different. I added a RBS40 on V2.1.4.16 to a RBR50/RBS50 set (V2.2.0.66 beta) without any issues. Maybe I am just lucky?

Hi JaapB,
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
You can connect the RBS40 to the RBR50 just by pushing the sync button on both the Orbi router and the satellite.

You'll need to factory reset the Orbi router and satellites and set up from scratch. Walk thru the set up wizard with a connected PC and this time write down important information for safe keeping and future needs.
