Nighthawk R9000 Ap Mode
Hi, Nighthawk R9000 in AP Mode, how does it deal with physically connected devices? If you connect a device to the AP will it just hand all traffic back to the router to then send back to the AP...

Cheers Kurt,
I'm hopefull this will work then as I know like you say the ethernet ports do work when in AP mode and in the advanced settings anything not available is greyed out when in AP mode, link aggregation is not greyed out, so with your explanation of it still utilising l2 not l3 routing I reakon I'm good to go.
Will try it out.
Best Regards
Oli

Please post about this here for your model router:

You might try Voxels 3rd party FW as well.
Good Luck.
