Netgear R6250 can't bridge from other Netgear router?
Hi My internet provider provided me with what I expect is a customized version of the R6250 called a Netgear C6250 EMR. This router connects to the internet and is working fine. To extend this n...
Can you try changing out of AUTO to a fixed channel?
Can you answer my question about the Region setting?
The WIFI channels are set to AUTO.

Can you answer my question about the Region setting?
I've set th 2,4 ghz to channel 7 and the 5 ghz to channel 44 on both routers
I've chosen the 2,4 ghz network for the bridge as I'm using the 5 ghz for many other devices
Both routers are set to Europe as Region as I'm based in Copenhagen, Denmark
It have done the trick since the R6250 now is showing on my network map!
I'll have to check printing for tomorrow though to see if it finally is working. if it works I assume it was a channel setting that needed alignment?
It has however kicked of my Apple Airport Express for some reason? Perhaps that was connected to another port?
Glad to hear that you got the R6250 working. Yes, the C6250 was probably operating on a channel that was not compatible with the R6250.
How is your Airport Express connected to the network? It, too, may need to operate on a certain set of channels. You may have to experiment and find a channel that works for both the R6250 and Airport Express.
The Airport I can easliy fix now.
Thanks for the swiftness, the efficiency and the patience in assisting me.
Happy New Year!
