Orbi RBR20 5EH3855N022C

I have the RBR20 and one (included in box) satellite receiver. The systems works pretty well but I'm wondering if I can improve my signal strrength by adding one more satellite. The folks at a local store have givenm two DIFFERENT answers! (What a surprise!!)

One tech said no, this system is fixed the way it came in the box. The other of course said sure you can!

 

So, which is correct??

 

If I can add a satellite, which do you suggest??

 

Thahks so much

Yes you can add more satellites. Other users have posted having up to 6 RBS connected to 1 RBR.

The RBR20 comes as a bundle with the Orbi Satellite (RBS20).

 

The most appropriate satellite to add is probably another RBS20. This delivers AC2200 wifi, like the RBR20.

 

The Orbi Wall Plug Satellite (RBW30) is also AC2200, as is the RBS40.
