Orbi and Nighthawk X4 WiFi Range Extender

Hello Community

Can anybody tell me if it would be possible to add a Nighthawk X4 WiFi Range Extender to an Orbi satellaetie AC3000 two pack network?

Currently, I am using the Orbi system in point of access mode.

Appreciated

    Currently no. The extender works with having two wireless SSID names coming from a wireless router with out using any Smart Connect. Orbi uses smart connected to combine two wireless SSID names into one. If you need more extenders, get the Orbi Satellite extenders for use with the Orbi router.
