Answered by JohnJ
Q: QuestionCan you add an Orbi satellite to this router?(1 answer)
A: AnswerYou can add any other device. But, if you want everything on the same network IP segment, the Orbi should be in AP mode. If not, the Orbi will be another router behind the this router. That can mean more NAT issues, and no being to reach everything from any device. I run a ASUS mesh system in AP mode behind this router for extending range. The router treats anything connected to them as just another device connect directly to it.Answered by Grimmace

FUTUREPROOF YOUR NETWORK
While it may look like "The Emperor's Shuttle" [Star Wars Reference], it is an amazing piece of hardware that provides versatility and scalability to my home and home office network. Bundled with connectivity and security features that blow the competition away. I matched this router with the NETGEAR Nighthawk CM2050V as my ISP includes voice in my internet package/configuration. My network speeds are 1420 Mbps download and almost 100 Mbps upload on average which surpasses the ISP hardware and I feel that I have more control over my network without needing to rely on tech support [eternal hold]. NETGEAR also offers network extenders which I may consider later for any dead spots in my home but thus far, it has not been necessary to consider that option. My main network runs on average 3 smart TVs, 4 laptops, multiple smartphones, and a PS5 without breaking a sweat and I haven't even employed the guest network yet. With the NETGEAR app on my smartphone, I can configure and monitor my network with ease while having peace of mind that it is secure. I highly recommend if you are building a home/home office network that you do your homework like I did but I am confident that every path will lead you back to this solution for your network needs. The bottom line is that I intensely dislike having to pay for something more than once and that is often the case with planned obsolescence. Technology changes but NETGEAR in my opinion has foreseen this by including support for both Wifi 5 and the newer Wifi 6 in this product. A year of ARMOR was also included as an added layer of security with the option to extend hardware and ARMOR coverage based on the consumers' needs.

I got this router to update my 5 year old R7000 Nighthawk. I have to say I am still figuring out the tri-band but overall I am finally getting the data speeds I have supposed to been getting from my ISP and the range is awesome!!! I am enjoying the speed and ease this router has brought to my network and gaming experience. Shout out to geek squad also for helping me determine the best router for my home!!!

Nighthawk Router Axe7800
This router has bumped up my speed +200-350 levels from the current wifi signal I was receiving in my house hold. It’s been terrific with my gaming and internet connection. I would recommend the nighthawk to any and everybody. These are next level routers for a reason. I can even run my gaming pc off wifi without any latency or lag issues.
