Orbi RBR/RBS50 vs RBR/RBS50 v2

I have a system I recently setup with RBR/RBS50. Just noticed a newer version with RBR/RBS50v2 for $80 cheaper. Can someone explain the difference and if it's worth the pain setting up the new hardware?

Hi @TanujB

 

Welcome to NETGEAR Community! 

 

The RBR50v2 does not support Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and there is no USB port. Those are the only 2 difference, performance wise they are the same.
