“Is this the RBS50Y-v2? I was told by Netgear support that the second generation of this extender works with the orbi wifi 6 routers.”

• RBS50Yv2 is not compatible with the Orbi Mesh WiFi 6 system. It says it works with “every router,” but it doesn’t. In fine print, it states it is not compatible with Orbi 6. After spending morning troubleshooting without success, I had to return this product. Netgear does not have WiFi 6 compatible outdoor extender.

• We returned the outdoor unit. It would not stay connected to our Orbi system. Ironically we have very good wife in our yard and outbuilding without it, using the new Orbi RBR 850 so no loss to us. Not sure if the unit was defective or what.
