Nighthawk mesh wifi 6
I recently purchased a nighthawk. In order to work as extended it can be connected without the ethernet cable or I have to connected to my router
Hi I think I understand your question on wanting to use this router as an AP so that it does not need to be next to your existing router. To make sure you have a working mesh network, I recommend that you use the provided ethernet cable to wire it to your existing router first to perform the initial setup configuration. Under advanced setup (with your brower to connect to the MR60 router), you should be able to configure the router as a wireless AP. I have not tried this option yet, but wireless AP is listed under advanced setup.
