Range extender nighthawk axe11000 tri-band wifi 6e router

Looking for a range extender for my Nighthawk Axe11000 tri-band wifi 6e router. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I use it for work, play, and media streaming. I also have 3 Netgear network attached devices that are raid 5 arrayed for streaming 20 terabytes of media, along with 20 other devices such as TVs, Rokus, Galaxy Notes, Cell phones etc.

Looking to cover close to 12,000 sq feet combined interior and exterior.

    12k feet is quite a bit of area to expect to cover. Even the RBKE963 is only rated to 9k with a router and 2x satellites. 

    And if you're needing more than a single extender, I don't recommend using extenders but switching to a full mesh system. 

     

    If you have some place around you with a decent return policy, you can always try the EAX80. Its a solid AX extender.
