Connecting NETGEAR WiFi 6 Extender to Nighthawk Router with Ethernet Cable
Hi everyone,
I have a NETGEAR WiFi 6 Mesh Range Extender (EAX20) and a Nighthawk router. I'm wondering if I can boost my signal strength by connecting them directly with a wired connection. Can I just use an Ethernet cable, or is there a specific setup I need to follow for a wired connection? Any help on this would be much appreciated!
Thank You,

You can hardwire it in and it will be faster.
You just have to set it up in access point mode
