How to add a MR60 to my mesh network as a satellite?

I have a mesh system. 1 MR60 and 2 MS60s. I bought a new satellite on eBay and the person sent me an MR60. It won’t connect to my network. Wondering if I’m missing something here. I am definitely a beginner on this stuff. Any guidance is appreciated.

    You can't use MR60's as a satellite. 

    they're a router only device. 

    You can connect it in access point mode but it'd need to be hardwired in and wouldn't integrate with the system. 

    I'd contact the seller and get it refunded/returned if you're truly needing a satellite.
