Wifi 6 router and 2 sat extenders

I purchased a router And 2 sat kit and now want additional 2 or 3 to cover dead zones.. Can I purchase another router and 2 sat kit and use the router in 2nd pack at sat?

Thanks

    There is a separate forum for the WiFi6 products, where someone may have personal experience that relates to the question:

    One of the things that is "different" about Netgear mesh systems is that routers cannot be used as satellites. So, the two additional satellites can be attached to the existing router, and the new router will become a "spare".
