SXK80 router as satellite?
Hi all,
So I see the SXK80 2 pack on a mega deal, it if I purchased 2 is there any way to use the second router as a satellite or anything else useful?

No. it won't function as a satellite.
You can hardwire it in and use it in access point mode but it won't integrate with the other devices like a satellite.
- Hmm figured as much. I might just try out one pair and see how it does.
Does anyone know of a sensible and high speed way to connect my wired NAS over Wi-Fi? I can’t seem to find any Wi-Fi 6 to LAN bridges.- schumakuGuru - Experienced User

I can’t seem to find any Wi-Fi 6 to LAN bridges.Start with a network cable connecting the NAS direct to the router. Reliable, the best speed available for this undefined NAS, .... Wi-Fi isn't made for this. Unless you strongly believe in marketing. Possible compromise connect it to the SXS80 satellite where i understand you have two available.
