Hi,

 

Yes, this should work.

 

Configure one of the RE550 as range extender and connect it to the Wi-Fi of your router. (you can use the "Quick Setup" menu to make it easy) 
After that verify this range extender is working to your satisfaction.

 

Then log into the second RE550 and change its mode to "Access Point Mode".

After it has rebooted go through the "Quick Setup" to configure the "Wireless Settings" according to your needs.

 

Then connect both RE550 via the Ethernet cable. The second RE550 should now start working as well.
