Sep 11, 2021Ok, so since the Netgear EAX20 Range Extender is not compatible with Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Access Point, what are the options to extend the WiFi network without having an Ethernet cable connected WiFi device? Will another Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Access Point work like an extender without a Ethernet?
Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I did not say that. What I said was that you won't get a Mesh network. It may well be possible to set up separate wifi networks, or even networks with the same SSID. But they won't be Mesh.
Try your question in the right place and you might get better advice than you'll get from people who understand WiFi Routers.
