How to add the AC1200 WiFi Range Extender to the AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender?
Source: Verizon WiFi device
First extender: Netgear Nighthawl X 4S AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Extender (Model EX7500)
Question: How can I add my old AC1200 (model EX6150) for use inside my bedroom?

so you're currently going:
Verizon wifi device (model?)---->EX7500
and you want to conenct another extender to the EX7500
What error/problem are you running into?
You can daisy chain extenders. I wouldn't recommend doing it but it can be done.
Yes, that's exactly what I am looking to do. The Verizon router is all the way in the living room. The EX-7500 is half way in the middle of the apartment. I need to put the EX-6150 inside my bedroom, which is at the end of a long hallway.
How do I configure it? Thanks in advance for your help!

I need to put the EX-6150 inside my bedroom, which is at the end of a long hallway.---dual/single band extenders cut throughput 50% by the very nature of how they work. If your computer is in the same room as the (EX6+++ extender, you'd be better off connecting directly to the EX7500.
How do I configure it? Using the same guide from the installation support site.
