Multiple Nighthawk X4/X4s?

Hello,

 

I have one Nighthawk X4 EX7300 extender connected to my FIOS cable modem.  I want to add another X4 or X4s extender to expand my WiFi network.  Can this be done?  Is there a limite of how many extenders can be meshed together?

 

Thanks.

Model: EX7300|AC2200 WiFi Range Extender

Yes you can have multiple extenders but it is best to connect them to the router and not to daisy chain the extenders.

Thanks Darren,

 

I set my X4 to "EXTENDER" mode so, it's neither daisy chained nor hard wired to my WiFi Cable modem.  Can I just add another X4 set to "EXTENDER"mode in another part of the house that is not well covered by my current WIFI network?  I only have one Verizon FIOS WiFi cable model and one X4 connected via WiFi in "extender" mode.

 

Take care,
