Review: Very poor coverage compared to the price - I originally had a basic Velop mesh system and decided to upgrade to a premium option. I chose Netgear, expecting great performance given its price and marketing. However, when I set it up in the same spot as the Velop, the units couldn't even connect to each other. Despite the large size of the device, I was willing to overlook its appearance for a superior connection. Unfortunately, this turned out to be my worst experience ever, and I felt completely ripped off. I will be replacing it with the Deco X90.
Review: Very bad compared to the previous version - I bought this as an upgrade but it is not working well. I bought it a year a go and it keeps failing from time to time and i need to reconfigure it. Never had to do this with the previous model.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The base rbr850 is connected to a router via ethernet. does the satellite rbs850 need to connect to the rbr850 via wifi or can i use ethernet?**
A: You should be able to add an ethernet cable for backhaul.  I would suggest it, use CAT6 would be best.  Backhaul wiring is going to be faster than Wifi backhaul signal.  CAT6 cabling is rated for 1gb and PoE.  Also, the cabling type being installed for the last few years in new homes with digital ready feature.  Also, cabling length you don't go over 100 meters or 328 feet.  I usually stop cabling at 300ft.  300ft is a 100 yd football field.  Unless your in a mansion cable length isn't a worry.

Your best speed on wifi will come from the base router, it is the first hop from your home network to the internet provider equipment.  When you add more satellites (which are extenders)  your going to be adding the first close to the mesh router just within range to get it's signal.  Your next one you would connect within range the 1st satellite.  You'll see they talk about coverage of square feet, and not to exceed to so much sq. feet on a system.  Because your satellites are drop on signal quality the further away you are from the router.

MESH systems are good for small homes, where you can get by with a mesh router and one or two satellites. The best configuration is get the router centered in the house, you can always run a cable from the ISP modem to the router.  Then set your satellites in range of the router, not in range of satellites.  You'll have a better and stronger setup with Wifi signal as backhaul.  You can improve that backhaul and speed to satellites by wiring them to the router or switch that is connected to router.

**Q: Can the rbk852 be used with the orbi outdoor satellite?**
A: no

**Q: Do you have to use the Orbi router, or can you use the Orbi satellites with an Xfinity router?**
A: I have the RBK 853 system in my home. I am pretty sure if you want to run Orbi satellities you need to have the main Orbi router to take advantage of the excellent wifi 6 mesh features of the Orbi system. This last weekend I helped a friend with an Xfinity modem / router box combination install an Orbi system. Just connect the main Orbi router via ethernet cable and sync the satellites. Boom fast wifi everywhere first floor, second floor, basement, attic even out in the yard. Just spend the money you will never look back. Assumes you buy the fast internet connection from Xfinity of course.

**Q: I purchased the rbr50 and two rbs50’s right before the release of this rbk852 bundle.  :-/  what’s the most cost effective way to incorporate the 852?**
A: Be careful, one series of orbi may not be compatible with another series. Stick with the rbr50's.

### ⭐ WiFi constantly disconnecting
*by H***A on 6 July 2024*

This thing is a headache, I had it connected to my modem which was on bridge mode and used PPPoE with it to connect, it kept constantly disconnecting my clients at least 5 times a day so I had to return it
