Tri band but also not wifi 6 from what I can tell.
There really is not much of a use case for the more expensive models from Netgear. Not many people have devices that support wifi 6 nd even if you do, it is more speed than almost any application requires.
The current FW drops connection quite a bit. But, I had dropped connections on previous versions of FW too. I'd install a stable FW and forget about it if that was an option, but some FW upgrades are forced. (I can install a FW and block ports to prevent this, but I've been lazy.... and also I shouldn't have to do this.)
I've recently did a reset and did a full reinstall again. See if that makes it better. If it doesn't then I'm probably going to grab a good deal on eero pro 6, which seems to have a good reputation for stability, on blackfriday. I need to go wifi 6 soon anyways. I don't know why any one would buy a non wifi 6 router now.

RBR50/RBS50 works great for me (base + 3 sats) but when it decides it has a connection problem (or when I have to reboot a satellite) it never took less than 10 min to boot up and fully connect.
Edit: most likely factory refurbished. Last batch of new units sold out around June last year.
