Router part of the zigbee mesh network

Zigbee and WiFi are two different protocols. Your WiFi devices don’t act as Zigbee-repeaters/routers/extenders, and vice versa.

The channel numbering is also different. If you have your WiFi on channel 11, and your Zigbee on channel 11, that’s actually a good thing, because that means there is no overlap between those two. See the graphic below:
