Have Nighthawk EX8000 and EX770, can I use 7700 as AP and use 8000 as extender?
My home is a 2floor long rectangle. The modem/router is located on 1st floor at the front of the house. Office room is located at the backend of the house on the second floor. I currently have EX8000...
Use the EX8000 as the access point. In access point, the device is hardwired in. The EX8000's backhaul is much wider than the ex7700's so when its in access point mode, that backhaul is freed up for usage. And you can connect the EX7700 to it so its got a better connection back to the AP.
Thats the route I'd take.
