AIMesh - do ALL nodes have to be in range of the primary router?

[WhiteHawk7]

Basically I'm wondering if I can extend the range of my network by having: router--node--node (the last node is not within range of the primary, only the 1st node).

Thank you.

No needed. The 2nd node can connect with 1st node by wifi or ethernet. The connection shall be ok. But the performance shall be depend on you needed.
