Orbi Setup

[Fbombtom]

I have a Spectrum modem and it is connected to a Netgear Nighthawk router.  I would like to expand my wifi coverage in my home and was looking at the orbi.  I was wondering how the orbi would be hooked up to my set up and would it use the Nighthawk wifi?

No, the Orbi does not use the WiFi of another router as it is not a extender.

If you are using particular features of the nighthawk as a router that the Orbi doesn't have then you could just turn off the Wifi in the Nighthawk and use the Orbi as an Access Point. But, really I would recommend go with the simple setup and just sell the Nighthawk and replace the router with the Orbi.

Thank you for the info.
