RAX10 in Repeater mode?

I have a RAX10 AX1800 WIFI Router with Firmware: V1.0.11.112.

 

I would like to use it in Repeater Mode but it is not an option.

 

Would an older version of the firmware enable it?

    Most of the newer devices don't support a repeater/extender mode. 

    You can hardwire it in and use it in access point mode.

    If you want to reach people who are using these devices, then this section, which covers General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk and Non-Orbi), isn't the best place to ask.

     

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
