Nighthawk AXE11000 link aggregation

Hi everyone,
I’m looking into combining two separate gigabit ISPs to get a dual gigabit network through link aggregation. From my research it seems like the Nighthawk can accommodate this and pass on to a switch with the 2.5gbps port. Will this work? And is it possible to combine two Nighthawk AXE11000 routers to form a wired backhaul the way the Orbi satellites do? Thank you.

  • LInk aggregation needs to be from the same source. Not seperate. 

    that'd be dual wan setup that usually involves failover and load balancing. 

    None of the consumer router from netgear provide that option.
