Hello,
I am about to buy the NETGEAR WiFi 6 Mesh Orbi System (RBK353), Pack of 3, WiFi 6 AX1800 Router for my home.
I've read pretty good things about it. The idea is to replace the WiFi from my Livebox 5 with WiFi 6 and have broad coverage. What do you think? I have a WiFi 6 repeater from Orange in my package, do you know if I could add it to the Orbi WiFi to further increase the coverage?
Thank you for your insights.

    Hi,
    I think you can add it, but they won't work together, it will be an additional wifi network, which will probably reduce the radio bandwidth for the Netgear wifi.
    After that,
    wifi 6 doesn't increase coverage, it only increases wifi speed and especially the ability to have more devices connected simultaneously.
    It's just the fact of having 3 mesh access points that increases coverage, not wifi 6.
