The Ai Mesh is specific to Asus brand routers. Most of their newer ones can be configured to be in a mesh setup. The network extenders should work fine, you just have to re-pair them back up with the new router.

The catch is that ASUS will not support troubleshooting if you have issues with the third party extenders. AiMesh devices will create a mesh overlay instead of just extending the next work and would be optimized. As an alternative route, you could also look at throwing a third party firmware on both the ASUS router and the Netgear extenders like DD-Wrt.
