Using multiple AX1600 as Access Points with the same SSID as the router?

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to use multiple Netgear AX1600's as Access Points but keep the same SSID as the Virgin router?

 

The main reason to use as access points is because the AX1600's are not in range of the Virgin Media routers WIFI signal but they are all wired to the router via network cables.

 

Surely there must be a way to make one SSID for the entire setup without relying on WIFI extending which is not an option in this case because the AX1600's are out of range and have a much faster cable connection available?

 

Any advise help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Kind Regards Patrick
