R6350 AC1750 configure Wireless Bridge/Repeater
(Moving my post over here as suggested.. Note this is an R6350 - The Model dropdown when posting does not have that. previous post was https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-WiFi-Routers/R6350-A...

Success!
Last night I tried again. From a hard reset I went in to the Advanced Wireless setup, checked Other Mode, filled in the Wifi SSID and password for my primary router, filled in a valid 10.0.0.xxx address, subnet, and dns for the Netgear for the primary network, and saved.
After the router rebooted, I still had the wireless networks and everything I had before - Like I hadn't changed anything, but the Other configuration information was still there. Saved/rebooted again (couldn't think of anything better to do).
When it came back up, I no longer see the Wireless SSIDs/networks for the Netgear.First time I had not seen those show up in all my attempts.
Connected to my primary wireless network. Now my servers that are connected to the Netgear are there!! The Netgear is also there at the IP I had set. Success!! Network is bridged! Everyone on the same subnet.
Many thanks to plemans for his clarifications!
