Orbi

 

I have a Netgear EX7000 and Nighthawk X4 range extenders.  I set up Orbi RBR50.  

Can I still use my 2 Netgear Range Extenders with our Orbi or are they entirely different systems?  Sorry I am not very tech savvy.  

We have a very large 1 floor home.

Thank You very much for your replies.

  • Yes, you can use your old extenders with Orbi but please note the following:
    1. You should set the radio on the extenders on different channels than those used in Orbi.
    2. You should use a different SSID in the extenders that the one used in Orbi.
