Can a New RAZ45 have the same name and password of an old Netgear R7000 with all linked devices

Can a New AX6 43000 RAZ45 have the same name and password of an old Netgear R7000 with all linked devices, and they automatically connect?

Yes. 

I do it all the time because I change routers often.

Thanks so much for the answer.  While i understand this is not Netgear Support, it's great to hear from acutal users that have experienced the same issues and have the same questions.

    Its just part of my signature. :)

    you get a lot of people on here that are rude or think we're support. 

    so I just put that on there to try to help cut down on it.
