Does X4 AC2200 & X6 AC2200 work with BE6500?
I have an AC1900 R7000 router on the ground floor of my house. I have an X6 AC2200 extender on the second floor. I have an X4 AC2200 extender in the basement. This has worked well for a couple...
Will it work? Yes. Will you enjoy the benefits of the Wireless BE speeds on the extenders? No. Will they have wpa3 like the BE router? No.
If you're already using extenders, I'd look at going to a mesh system versus keeping it cobbled together. That luckily works.
the RBE773 system is pretty solid.
Thank you for your time and answer. Your comments had me reconsider and I installed a complete new Orbi mesh system. I went with the RBK753P as a compromise of getting a complete system, upgrading my system functionality, and price.
good luck with them!
What system did you go with?
Your comments had me reconsider and I installed a complete new Orbi mesh system. I went with the Orbi AX4200 (RBK753P) as a compromise of getting a complete system, upgrading my system functionality, and price. Got it for $470. Installed it Friday. Easy install. Been working great since...my Spectrum speed is 600mps. I really wanted to go all the way to the Orbi wifi-7 system, but couldn't justify the $1000K for my needs.
for the speeds you're paying for, that system is perfect. It'll handle a ton of connections and do great.
Good choice
