Can RAX40 be configured in bridge/extender mode?
Can the RAX40, or other models in the Nighthawk series, be configured either as router or as a bridge/extender? I purchased a RAX40 on that assumption, but there is no bridge option in the Advanced Settings menu.
I am aware that there are specialized Extender models. However, I thought I was buying something I could use in either configuration. Perhaps that was a mistake.

The best way to find out is to get the manual for whichever router you want to use.
If you visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
you can feed in the model number and find all the documentation for the hardware.
