“I want to extend Apple Bluetooth range to cover a 1/4 acre lot; house walls concrete block. Since Bluetooth v5 uses 2.4ghz WiFi, would adding two Deco X50 Outdoor routers to my existing 3 node indoor XE5300 mesh accomplish this goal?”

Hello Bill Bluetooth, in general, operates on 2.4 GHz. It is a separate sub-frequency from those used by a router's 2.4 GHz antenna. Because of this separation, Bluetooth requires its own separate radio. Deco cannot extend the range of BT. However, that said, the maximum range of BT 5.0 is up to 800 feet. Assuming your coverage is a square lot, that 1/4 acre should be well within the range of BT 5.0 on its own. If it's not then you would want to look for a product specifically designed to extend Bluetooth. and I do not know if any currently exist.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
