The EAX80 would be closest and recommended. NG doesn't have a extender with 6Ghz as of yet. But the EAX80 should work well.

Very cool thanks for your help.
Out of curiosity, do you foresee a time when NG will come out with a fully copyable extender? . . not a big deal if this item will work . .. just curious.
Anyway, my irrigation system thanks you.

FURRYe38,
Apologies for the bother; but before I seek out the EAX80; can you tell me if I could use then following as an extender?
I have a a satellite cube from a previous NightHawk Mesh Wifi 6 system; so, I have this satellite cube (MS80) . .. would this work as an extender . . . I'm guessing not; but thought I'd ask before spending the money on the MS80
thanks again for any help.
