How to turn my Nighthawk R6400V2 into an Extender
I am unable to get into the advanced settings to change the router into an extender.
Can anyone help me?
I have used a cat5 cable to connect the nighthawk to my router but I can seam to find the right software to change the settings of my Nighthawk

I know extender mode was pulled (removed) from the r6400v1 at some point in its firmware. Not sure if the v2 even had it.
You could hardwire it in and use it in access point mode.

To turn it into an access point just turn off the DHCP.
