After over 6 hours it was determined by the tech support that it didn’t work. I’m still trying to figure out how to return for another one but with the covid 19 it seems to be a challenge. Would love to know how I could exchange it for a working one.

Bought this during in home quarantine from geek squad advisor but they failed to say how difficult it is to bridge Verizon router over to Orbi router. Then you may have to run Ethernets to your TVs. I will be returning the tri band and the outdoor mesh extender I bought once it is safe to enter stores again. Has to be something easier on the market then this. Plus NETGEAR customer service is horrible!!!

We purchased the outdoor satellite to extend our Orbi system further on our property. The unforeseen issue we encountered was that the Orbi system we purchased is not (yet) compatible with the satellite. Netgear is working on the firmware, so we hope that we can connect the satellite soon and put it through its paces
