I currently have an Archer c7 and then a netgear wireless extender connected over powerline adapters in another room about 25 ft away.
When I speed test with my phone right next to the router I get about 65 down and 59 up. When I start walking towards the extender (say 1/2 way) I get about 5 down and 4.5 up. When I go beyond the extender I get the same 5/4.5 for another 40 ft radus.
I konw it's because the extender is taking over and cutting the speed drastically.
My question is if I get a Netgear Orbi RBK50 and place the satellite beyond the extender, will I get close to the 65 down/59 up apeeds throughout the whole house, or will I get closer to the 5/4.5 speeds?
Like, does the satellite on the Orbi act like the extender?
