ORBI satellites

[jbbevan]

I have the RBR50 base station operating as a simple MESH with one RBS50 satellite.  My question is what models of satellite units will work with this system that are cheaper alternatives to the RBS50?  I only need it as a WiFi extender and it is not required to have any physical outputs (USB or Ethernet, etc.).  I am new to this forum and any help/suggestion will be appreciated.

ALL satellites will work with the RBR50 base unit.  (although only the RBS50 will have the full bandwidth backhaul over WiFi)

On Amazon today, the RBS50 is selling for $211US, the RBS20 for $138, and the RBW30 for $145.

There is a list of satellites that are sold separately https://www.netgear.com/orbi/add-ons.aspx
