RAX45 Bridge Mode

The manual for RAX45 on page 82 states that you can enable Bridge Mode by "Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Router/ AP / Bridge Mode" but there is only the option for AP mode, not Bridge Mode.  I would like to set it up as a bridge.

    While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Nighthawk Routers with WiFi 6 (AX) - NETGEAR Communities

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
