Nighthawk AX1800 (RAX10) wifi router
My current set up: Nighthawk AX1800 (RAX10) wifi router, connected to a Netgear wifi cable modem. If I want to add the Mesh 6 system, do i need to: replace the Mesh 6 router with the existing RAX10 ...
The cable modem is Netgear. The Nighthawk AX1800 router wifi is hooked to it.
Since my post, I ended up connecting the Mesh Router to the Nighthawk wifi router. And created a separate wifi system for the house. Long work around. However, it works......
I want to add one more satellite. I add, I bought 2 of the MK62 box systems from Sam's.
Soooo......
as noted above, I have a mesh router system set up, and working. Now I'm trying to add the other satellite, that I took from the other 2-piece system. Hence, I will not use the other router except for a doorstop.
Now I cannot get the additional satellite, from the other box, to sync up with my current 2 pc system????

As plemans asks, which cable modem?
Since my post, I ended up connecting the Mesh Router to the Nighthawk wifi router.
Which Mesh router? An Orbi?
Are the MS60 satellites compatible with whatever it is? They are designed for the MR60 router.
You can just slap together a random selection of routers and satellites, especially in Mesh systems, which rely on coordinated communication between routers and satellites.
Hence, I will not use the other router except for a doorstop.
Or an access point?
this guide goes over syncing the satellite to the router.

So here's what I have:
Netgear Cable Modem
Nighthawk AX1800 RAX10 wifi router
I added an AX1800 MK62 Mesh Router / satellite
I want to add another satellite. So I bought another MK62 2 pack, as it was cheaper than just buying one satellite.
- I want to connect the satellite from that box set to the already put in service MK62 Router. I will bag the extra router for another day.
