Two RBR20 routers to form a MESH network

I have 2 RBR20 routers and I want to set up a Mesh network, but I'm not getting it, one of them works as a satellite? Can I synchronize the 2 RBR20 devices on a wireless mesh network?

Thank you very much, So I can't make a Mesh network with 2 RBR20 routers via cable or wireless, officially? So it would be useless to form Mesh network?

Does this model use Circle 1st generation parental control only? Wouldn't it be compatible with the second generation?

Or use google/reddit a little to find the procedure to switch one to a satellite.
