Which AC1900 WiFi router is that?
AC1900 is not a unique Netgear model number. Many devices come with the AC/AX tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and others, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
Look at the label on the device for the Model Number. And, if there is one, include the "V" bit to show the hardware version. If there is no V number, then you have V1.
Just another user with time on their hands.

Thank you for reaching out. It's a R7000.
You'd put the MR5200 in passthrough mode and wire the R7000 into it
Or you could leave the MR5200 in router mode and hardwired the R7000 into it with the R7000 in access point mode
Thank’s. Problem is I’m not able to figure out where to enable this in the mobile router menu … and wiring the M7000 into the MR5200 yields a connection conflict barring access to the M7000 menu for parameter changes.
