Would like to wireless bridge r6230 and wgr 614v10

Hughesnet modem with Wi-Fi disabled
Rr6230 wired to hughesnet
Wish to wirelessly connect wgr614v10 to R6230 so I can connect multiple non Wi-Fi devices from distance. Settings to create connection?
I can’t seem to get connection between wireless part to connect

    This does not disable the router section, if there is one, of this anonymous modem.

    I see no indication in the manual that the R6230, a pretty basic router, supports "wifi bridging", or repeater, mode, unlike the ancient WGR614v10, which is based on a device first launched in 2003.

     

    Manuals are always a good place to start.

    Visit the support pages:

    Feed in your model numbers and check the documentation for your hardware.

    You may have done that already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
