AC1200? Rather old (speed) technology, which is why it's as cheap as it is. Some units went to AC2200 (maybe faster?), and the current protocol/speed is AX-something, like I've seen AX4000 from one brand, which is about 3x the speed of this one with a compatible unit... The downside of the new ones is they're typically $250+ !

Wow nice. I bought warehouse used set for $50. Only need the satellites to beef up my existing RBK23 setup.
I've got a rbk23 set with a router and 2 satellite. Got a 3,700 sq ft house with a pool and the pool/patio lags connections. Can I use these satellites to supplement coverage? TIA.

Have this system installed at home. Only complaint is the satellites do not have RJ45 (Ethernet) ports on the back. Only on the router itself has. Good coverage for this price

I think you can use those satellites on the RBK23. Keep in mind that those satellites don't have Ethernet ports in the back.

Does this work with RBK23 setup?
Yes, both units are WiFi 5 Orbis, so they will work together.

I have 100mbps Internet so whatever AC rating it is doesn't really matter. Bought it for $99 1.5 years ago. It's stable and setup is easy. The only compliant is that there's no way to manually assign which satellite a device connects to. So once in a while I'd have something trying to connect to a satellite further away at 2.4ghz vs. another satellite a few feet away at 5ghz, but I think this is the same issue with some other MESH setups.
If you use one of those old school repeaters with a separate network etc. this is a no-brainer.
