1) Access Point---Yes
2) Repeater---No
3) Range Extender---No
And what are the processes to set up for each?
the manual goes over placing it in access point mode.
Ah so I can string one as a router and 2 as access points ...
Thank you so much.
That'd be an expensive setup.
And it wouldn't work like a mesh system as that isn't a mesh router.
It might be worth checking into a mesh system like orbi or another one.
I've used the arris ax11000 mesh system. I've never used an Orbi AX though.
