can I use netgear N600 for receiving wifi signals and share internet in its LAN ports

Is it possible to use any of the netgear wifi routers to recieve wifi signals and distribute the net through its lan ports?

    You're looking for a router that's capable of bridging

    There are certain model number that supports bridging. 

    You can verify this by accessing the admin page of your router then look under Advanced Setup.

    If you see "Wireless Bridging" then your router is capable to bridge. 

    If not, I suggest that you try looking into a different model number of router such as the R7000
