I just purchased an Archer AX20 router and RE220 Range Extender to create a OneMesh network in my home. I've upgraded them both to the latest firmware.

When I put the RE220 in Access Point mode, the OneMesh option does not show up on the Admin screen.

The reason I purchased these products is to create a OneMesh network that extends to an area of my home that wifi doesn't reach. I have an existing TP-Link extender, connected to the router over ethernet and running as an Access Point, but it's frustrating having to switch SSIDs whenever I go to that area of my home.

Using the RE220 in Range Extender mode won't really solve the problem as the Range Extender is not able to make a strong wifi connection to the router from the "dead zone" area either. Is there a way to use the RE220 in AP mode to join a OneMesh network?

If not, is there an alternate TP-Link Range Extender than can be connected to a OneMesh network when in AP mode?
