RAX200 - Can this model be bridged AND act as an AP?
I'm wanting to use the nighthawk RAX200 as a bridge, but also need to retain the AP. Is this possible?
No.Bridge mode is just a connection from router<----->router with only the ethernet ports active.
The mode you're looking for would be extender mode and the RAX200 doesn't have that mode.

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the NightHawk RAX WiFi 6 Router products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with NH router products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Routers-with-WiFi-6-AX/bd-p/en-home-routers-nighthawk-wifi-ax6Check the user manual for these options. Most RAX routers have AP mode at least. The last RAX80 I had also supported wireless bridge mode.
