You mean use BT Hub as main router, AX11000 and AX5400 connect to the BT Hub via Ethernet cable and work as access points?
If so, you could refer to: How to configure the TP-Link wireless router as Access Point

@xrg901 Because the AX11000 is much more powerful than the BT home hub and can handle multiple devices easily, your best bet is to put the BT Home hub into Modem Mode and connect your Ax11000's wan port to the BT Home hub's #1 ethernet port.
Then setup your AX11000 to run in router mode so it can handle the DCHP server. Follow the setup wizard under advanced and quick setup at the very top.
BT uses dynamic IP when you come to that setting.
Leave all other settings at their defaults.
With the other router you have (AX5400) - if you connect it via an ethernet cable - connect it into port #1 on the TP-Link AX11000. With the AX5400 second router for your son, ensure DCHP server is OFF and set the router to access point mode.
Other than that, you should be good to go! BT router will be the modem, the AX11000 will handle the clients connected to the wifi and the archer AX5400 will be a really nice access point!
Good luck, any further questions pm me
