I wonder if may I have a mesh network if I extend my wifi 5 network with a mesh (wifi 6) extender? If it´s possible and considering that I have a Netgear Nighthawk R8000 X6 AC3200, which Netgear wifi 6 extender is recommended?
thanks

You can add a wifi 6 extender to a wifi 5 network.
You'll still be bottlenecked by the routers wifi 5 but it'll work.
Were you planning on getting a wifi 6 extender because you plan on updating the router at some point?
