Nighthawk RAX200 as APs across home

[Srl2007]

Brand new home built with Cat8 wiring to every level.  Can I put RAX200's on each floor and set them as APs and connect them with a netgear switch to create a wired mesh with the same SSID to cover the entire house?

3 kids and a ton of devices so the Orbi mesh networks keep getting bogged down.  Hoping the wired implementation will save us some backhaul bandwidth.

thank you!

The only problem is its not a mesh system. You can use the same ssid but it won't roam like a mesh system would.

You'd be better to look at the orbi AX system versus multiple RAX200's.

1 - thank you for the info

2 - what will the difference be compared to the orbi mesh systems?

my existing orbi system bogs down due to nest cams, Apple TV's, etc - just trying to takes advantage of the wiring
