NetGear ORBI RBK53
Hello, I'm about to buy an Orbi RBK 53 home wifi extender with 2 satelites, but I may need to add more satelites. My house is large about 6000sq feet and extends over a fairly large area. My question s more about my Internet speed from my ISP. I currently have 150mbit\sec and have the option to upgrade to 500mbit\sec or 1000mbit\sec. Given that the satellites cannot connect to the devices in my home at higher than 800mbit\sec for 5g and 400mb\sec for 2.4g is there any point in upgrading my Internet speed beyond 500mbit given that the the devices can only connect to the Orbi at less than this. I'm assuming that in some areas of the house i will have to use 2.4g due to the large floor area. I'd appreciate your help Thank you Seamus
