“My house is two-stories, apprx. 2700 sq ft. My Verizon gateway router is on the 1st level on the right side of house. My 2nd level gets spotty to no WIFI signal at all. Will this product fix that issue? Would one router and one satellite fix the issue?”

You would probably swap out the Gateway router and plug in the Orbi to your modem instead, unless the Gateway is a combo modem/router. I get terrific coverage by running a long cable to the new Orbi router placed high on a bookcase where the signal is still strong through the ceiling to the next floor. The downstairs satellite is in direct line of site at the foot of the stairs and covers the entertainment center well.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It might, it did for me. Lots of variable though. I have great three story coverage over 2700 sw ft.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Buy it and try it. I found it worked well for me. My house is 3800 sq ft and I was getting a signal throughout WITHOUT plugging in the satellite. With it, I'm getting amazing speeds and no dropouts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The RBK50 Orbi router system was designed to break through traditional barriers to cover up to approximately 5,000 Sq. Ft. under its powerful Tri-Band mesh network. Instructions for optimizing placement of your Orbi Satellite begin on page 17 of the User Manual: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/rbk50.aspx?cid=wmt_netgear_organic#docs
