Just bought a house with a 2nd floor. There will be 2 gamers on this level, not including the gamer on the main level. We currently have a router and are looking to give this a boost. Can you purchase the Orbi Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6 System without a router as we do not need the additional equipment? If you have to purchase the router with this System, is there another System without the router? Thank You in advance.
All Orbi MESH systems come with a router and satelltes. You can I believe purchase separarate router and satellites. However know this, the satellittes can only be connected to Orbi routers. They can not be connected to non Orbi router systems. And there is Orbi compatibility requirements as well:
Thank you for the information about the capability issues with the Orbi router / satellites. After discussion, the intent in the first place was to just extend the router we have, Nighthawk RAXE500. We will keep the PS's hardwired, but with all the other equipment needing wi-fi, that is where the extenders would come into play. Do you have any recommendations for a system that would extend the Nighthawk? Your help is greatly appreciated for this non-techie person.
