Wireless bridge mode isn't supported on XR routers. Only router and AP mode.

As i read this article applies also to the XR700, but I don't have such options in my routers (Wireless Bridge option doesn't exist).
Could someone help me with this? How to set it on XR700?

But XR700 is mentioned in the corner of the article as relevant.

I would get in contact with Christian_R to confirm this. From what I've seen on my XR450 and when I had the XR700, wireless bridge mode is not in the UI. Never has been. Possible the inclusion of the XR series in the article maybe incorrect.
Something to see what NG says.

- Netduma-FraserAug 10, 2019NetDuma PartnerAs above, I've not ever seen this option on the XR700. Maybe it was planned to be included and then removed and the article wasn't updated, either way I think the article is incorrect in this instance.
