Linking an access point to a range extender

Question

I already have an EX6000 set up (via ethernet cable) as an access point; this is at some distance from the router. &nbsp;I now wish to extend further. &nbsp;Can I link my EX6000 access point to another EX6000, the latter acting as a range extender ?

Hello ric888,&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Connecting the extender to the access point is definitely doable but there could be a decline in performance for devices connected to the extender. You may want to look into connecting both extenders to the routers instead.&nbsp;

Thanks for this. &nbsp;However, my issue is that our house is quite long, so linking the second extender to the router will not take the wifi signal any further. &nbsp;I need a way of leap-frogging.
