Multiple RBR50s and Satellites, which configuration makes the most sense?
I have a RBR50 Router + 2 RBS50 Satellites and am replacing an old access point (diff brand) in my detached office. I have ethernet running from the main router to the office and so after speaking with someone in Netgear Chat Help they said I just needed another Satellite. I bought a pack with a RBR50 router and RBS50 Satellite as it was cheaper than just the satellite alone. Now I am reading that I could turn the router into an AP. My office is so far away from the house that the Satellite wont make a wifi connection and would always be fed from the ethernet, sp would I be better using the router in Access Point mode or the Satellite? Either way they would be plugged in to ethernet. Ideally, I am just want solid wifi that covers my office and allows my phone to seamlessly switch between the house wifi and the office wifi. Thanks.

You could do it either way.
If you're only going to need 1 access point in the office, I'd just use the satellite and either sell the router to recoup some $ or I'd hang onto it for a backup incase the primary ever goes bad.
