Connecting Router

Background:

1) I believe I have V1 since nothing says V2 on my unit.

2)  I have a Arris cable modem provided by Brighthouse/Spectrum  connected to a Netgear router.  I had wired the router to my R6300 as a remote AP.  All worked fine.  I replaced the Netgear router with a Norton CORE.  All worked fine. 

 

Question : how do I describe this type of connection?  It is not a wireless bridge.  I just plugged it in and it worked.  I cannot search this topic effectively because I don't know how to describe it.

    Fair enough.  I have seen multiple questions get lost on on other forums.  I thought this would be easier for everyone.  Thanks for the feedback.  I will move to "Accessing a connected router"
