Daisy chain two X6S (EX8000) wifi extenders
I am wishing to daisy chain two EX8000 extenders. I am hoping to use the "mesh" features that this model seems to have. There seems to be a backchannel on the extender. Orbi type features.
Does this back channel also get utilized by the second daisy chained extender #2 to the first extender #1?
Also, could i daisy chain another model of Netgear extender to the EX8000? I have a EX6200 (ac1200) unit that i would like to try to connect to the EX8000.
I also cannot find any documentation on how to do this either.
Thanks.

Yes, you can connect an extender to the EX8000. It would be the normal setup.
