NETGEAR AC750 D6000
Hi there.
I would like to use this router as an additional access point / wifi repeater on my existing wifi.
Does this D6000 model have a "bridge" setting or access point mode?
I do not seem to find anyting like that when I connect to it with Netgear geni?
I can hard-wire it to my existing router, but I will still need to set it to access point mode?
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Joe

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for "access
point". I see nothing relevant. On a D7000, it's at ADVANCED >
Advanced Setup "Wireless Access Point".However, almost any wireless router can be configured as a WAP. See,
for example:https://community.netgear.com/t5/x/x/m-p/1463500
That's written for a Netgear C6300-as-WAP, but the steps are about the
same for any other router (any make/model) which lacks a one-step WAP
option.
