It should be able to extend any reasonably modern wifi network.

    You don't need to use WPS to set up the extender. So that is not an issue.

     

    Do you know if it is the GFRG110 or the GFRG100?

        There's not a lot out there on the router specs, but it looks like it delivers AC1700 wifi network - dual band with 3x3 802.11ac at 5G.

         

        The ex6120 should work ok.
