WAX360 ... How many extenders per root?

WAX360 ... How many extenders per root?

This is about WAX630

 

I have a setup of 6  WAX 630 access points. 

 

When I setup Mesh as one root and five extenders one of the extenders fails to configure (Blue Green Amber flashing led does not go off)

 

Is there a limit to the number of mesh extenders per mesh root?

 

I cannot seem to find a definitive answer.. 

 

Does anyone know.

 

Thanks in advance

Hello Simon,

 

Each NETGEAR Insight Instant Mesh master can connect with up to four other satellites to create a full mesh network.

 

More does simply not make any sense - the wireless Mesh backhaul is much to limited.

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Business Wireless products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with business wireless products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:
