Connecting Airport Extreme to Orbi Network
Greetings All,
I apologize if this is a bit of a newby question.
I have a 3000sf house that is covered by an orbi system with two towers (rbk50), however, I have a large screen tv that would be improved by connecting to the network using a stand alone wireless router rather than its own built in wireless connection. I have an unused Airport Extreme that I was thinking of using for this purpose, but wanted to know if this made sense or if I would be better off getting another orbi unit and accessing the network through that.
Thanks
Kevin

Hello 19kevner59
You could use that router but just know it will create another wireless network in the home if your are fine with that should be no issues.
