I have an AC1200 wired into my Ethernet and want it to act as a range extender so that everything is on the same wireless network vs having to switch between.  What has to happen to do that?

What's the AC1200 device ? This should be printed on its bottom sticker.

If it's a router then you can use this guide to configure it in AP mode with the same SSID names as your main router.

This won't be a seamless roaming as in mesh networks and the smoothness will depend on your client devices.

If this was helpful click once on the arrow pointing upward. If this solves your issue, click once the star to mark it as a "Recommended Solution".
