Orbi 960 Wifi Extender
Just learned we need a Wifi Extender for our new Orbi 960, AXE 11000, wifi 6E system to connect to an outside solar battery. Is there any alternative to a $600 extra satellite? Many thanks to all in ...
Our home is about 3000 Sq Ft, the Router is on the second floor and the battery is outside right beneath it. There is a second-story overhang, so about 20 ft is my guess from the main Orbi router to the battery. Thank you, the add on satellites are just a little spendy now.
That should be well with in reach and coverage to this device for it to connect to the system.
How many RBS are you using?
Yes, they did, the battery's firmware won't update, they want to drill a hole in the wall and hardwire an extender to it, I was looking for less invasive options, but $600 is spendy.

The Solar battery app works except for firmware update? or,
The Solar battery app cannot be set up at all?
Can you provide a link to the installation instructions for this solar battery?
Did they say what kind of extender they proposed to install?
