create wireless bridge with 2 EX7300

Hi

Could you tell me if it's possible to create a bridge between 2 EX7300 :

- 1 connected to internet box by RJ45 in access point mode

- 1 connected to the first one by WIFI

And if this bridge is possible could you tell me if the SSID of internet box is the same on the 2 EX7300

Thanks for your answer

Best regards

    You can connect 1 extender to your router in access point mode and then the other extender to the 1st one. 

    In access point mode, mesh mode doesn't work. So you wouldn't be able to use mesh mode for all 3 devices. Just whichever one the extender running in access mode connects to.
