Mesh Network Question

I currently have a AP50 attached to my UTM. Everything is working as expected. I'm looking to extend the wireless network within my home. The documentation states "note that only AP 50 access points can be used for broadcasting mesh networks at the moment.".

Since I already have an AP50 to broadcast a mesh network, would I be able to use a AP10, AP15, or AP30 to extend the wireless network?

Or

Am I stuck getting another AP50?

Thanks for clarifying.

You'd need another AP50. You won't see the functionality added for the older AP10 or AP30. I would guess it'll be added for AP100 at some point.

It's not a true mesh. It is either a wireless bridge to another ethernet segment or as a wifi repeater.

Thanks Scott and William. I'm looking to use a 2nd unit as a wifi repeater. Sounds like I'm investing in another AP50.
