Hi, 

 

Which range extenders are compatible with Archer A9 to utilize the Smart Connect technology.  I mistakenly bought it thinking I could configure my RE300 with the OneMesh technology. 

 

Thanks in advance.

All the T-Link extender can work with Archer A9, while they do not support smart connect; and even if they support smart connect, cause they are not in the same mesh network, the devices connected to the extender will switch to the other wifi band with strong signal of the extender only. 

 

So to make the most of the wifi performance, it is suggested to use the router and extender which support mesh function to build a mesh network together. Like Archer A7 +RE300.

 

May it help.
