Netgear Orbi AX6000 and adding a Nighthawk AX12 (AX6000)

I have a Nighthawk AX12 (AX6000) right now and its not quite giving me the range I need in my house. 

I am looking to buy a Orbi AX6000 2-pack but instead of just selling the AX12 I have now I was hoping to use it in the mesh.

Is there a good way of doing this that won't cause more harm then benefit?

 

Maybe its just better to buy another AX12 and create a mesh out of that?

      Not sure on the model number for my ONT but its Verizon Fios gigabit.

      I have a ~2400 sq ft home but the problem really is its a townhome as is 3 floors so the plan is basically a single device per floor.

        Would be something you may want to try with the Orbi AX system, find a place that has a good refund policy and take one for a demo ride and see how it works for you.
