Hello, back with another question.

So I’ve setup my r6700 in bridge mode, but I’m not sure if I’ve done it right. Do I have to do anything to the other router I have, or do I just set it in bridge mode and devices can connect to the NETGEAR router?

    Are you having some sort of problem? Is it set up and not working? Something else?

     

    What do you mean by "bridge mode"? I ask because that term gets used in different ways.

     

    Earlier this week someone used the tag to describe wireless access point (AP) mode.

     

    You probably mean as a wifi repeater, but best to check. It could also be as a WDS.
