    Yes you can add extenders to the R7000P. 

    I'd recommend only adding 1. If you're needing more than 1, I'd recommend moving to an actual mesh system.

      Thank you. Do you have a recommendation for the type of extender. Maybe going less then 75 feet?

        I'm a fan of the triband line of extenders. They have higher throughput and lower latency because of their dedicated backhaul. 

        But if you're just needing a little more coverage, then a decent dual band extender would work as well.
