R8000p setup with 2 additional routers on ine network

  This setup is in a church the R8000P connected in one room with a concrete wall between them, ORBI RB20, the other router is a R7000 in a seperate building but under the same roof. All are running on the same network. I have 3 three 1itches on NETGEAR GIG Bit switches one off each router for additional devices in each area.

I plan on the R8000 to be in BRIDGE mode and the other 2 in AP Mode. I"m currently running the R7000 and the ORBI off the switch in the different areas. Would it be better to run them off the R8000 then the switches? Or run the cables from the switch in the R8000?

Re: R8000p setup with 2 additional routers on ine network

Really not sure what you have going on. 

1. bridge mode might not be what you think? Basically it turns the router into a wireless bridge to connect back to a different router. Maybe you mean you're going to leave the r8000 in router mode and the other devices in access point mode? 

2. are you having issues or just seeing if your setup is feasible?
