Is the Nightwawk Mesh system compatible to other manufactures?

Hi all,

I have a Hybrid DSL/LTE Router (other brand) with Mesh function and in the upper floor the EX8000. I tried to create a Mesh Wifi but the Router is telling me there is no Mesh device in the network.

I reseted the EX8000 and the router already but with no success.

Thanks in advnce for your answers.

Kind regards,

Nico

Hi @Niccoo, welcome to the community! Your router may not detect the EX8000 if you are setting it up from that since it may be using a proprietary system. However, you can set it up via the EX8000. You can go through the usual setup process and enable the One WiFi name feature to take advantage of the Mesh capability of the EX8000. The installation guide and user manual linked below may help out.
