I live in a very rural are of the country and currently use HughesNet as my ISP. Because of latency issues with satellite based internet, I also ordered a SLOW DSL circuit.
Can I use 2 ISP's with the Orbi RBR850 or will I just have to use the wireless router feature on the DSL modem for the DSL and the Orbi wireless feature for the HughesNet?
Thank you.

The RBR needs to be connected one mode that has a ethernet connection. It only supports 1 ISP modem device at a time. The RBR supports Link Aggregation however this still has to be with 1 modem that also supports LAG itself. Just combines 2 connections between the RBR and ISP modem that support this feature.

It will not work with it. You will end up needing to put either something like a pfsense/netgear firewall aggregation or a dual wan router/switch setup like the TPLINK ER605 or its successors. That way you can successfuly combine two ISPs
