Use of Nighthawk® X4S Tri-band WiFi Mesh Extender, 2.2Gbps, Wall-plug, Internal Antenna
My ISP is FIOS and my configuration is the FIOS AC1750 WiFi G-1100 Quantum Gateway Router configured as an access point into my NetGear AC1900 Smart WiFi Router. The house is 1900 square feet with 2...
You can use extenders. However, I usually recommend that people move to an actual mesh system like orbi if they're needing mutliple extenders and not just 1.
It can be done with more than 1 but it can also have stability/connection issues if the extenders are to close to each other/the router, or if the router has stability problems.
Many thanks for the quick response - to be precise, I would replace the NightHawk AC1900 Smart WiFi Router with the Orbi mesh system and if I bought the 3 pack Orbi, my configuration would be to use my Verizon Quantum Router (which is coax) to connect as an Access Point to my Orbi and place the other 2 Orbi's throughout the house, correct?
correct.
LIke I said, you can use more than 1 extender but by the time you buy 2 extenders, the price difference isn't a whole lot (especially if you go renewed on orbi) and you'll get better performance/stability. I'd highly recommend the tribands over the dual band setups.
