Netgear ex7000 range extender

I currently have the ex7000 nighthawk range extender at one end of the house. I would like to add the outlet plug in ex7500 range extender at the other end of the house ? Can a person have 2 or more range extenders?

Yes you can just make sure each extender is connected to the main routers wifi.

Re: Netgear ex7000 range extender

Thanks. So I have the AC1900 currently and want to add the EX7500 plug in extender. Is there a way to set this up so it boosts the main routers signal? Right now with the AC1900, it created 2 new signals (a 5g signal with a different name, and a 2.4g signal with a different name). I am trying to boost the signal of the main router. Is this possible with the EX7500 plug in extender?

That cant be done with the EX7000 but with the EX8000 or EX7500 you can make it 1 network SSID and it becomes a mesh like network.
