Compatible Routers to extend same wifi network with Nighthawk AX4

[kogber]

Hi,

I have the Nighthawk AX4 4G LTE WiFi 6 Router.  I plan to purchase a 2nd router that would connect with a long ethernet cable to the AX4.  I would like that 2nd router to extend/mesh the same LAN/Wifi network that is created by the AX4.  I would like to know what models of router would be compatible for this 2nd router extend/mesh purpose.

Thank you

I have done some research and realized I need a router that can function as an AP aka Access Point.

MIght try some NG EX or EAX extender models.

I am looking for an actual 2nd router with 4 ethernet ports, not just an plug-in wifi range extender device.

Not a good idea. You end up paying for something you don't need. Cheaper to buy an AP.
