D7000v2 and 5GEE wifi/router
I have a Nighthawk D7000v2 and I'm using it via a Landline. But I'm looking to switch to a 5GEE wifi/router either this one or this one. Does anyone know how to set this up? I have a bunch of LA...
I found this page:
https://kb.netgear.com/29327/How-to-set-D6220-D7000-to-pure-bridge-or-DSL-modem#
I think what I need to do is set this up as a Pure Bridge. How do I do this?

What are you trying to achieve now?

I interpreted that as meaning that you want to ditch the D7000v2 DSL modem/router and replace it with a mobile modem/router. The broken links you provided to EE end up with devices that work on the mobile phone network. That has nothing to do putting a DSL modem.router into "bridge mode".
If the idea is to use the D7000v2 as a router behind a mobile modem, then bridge mode on the D7000v2 , as described in that KnowledgeBase article, isn't what you want.
I have already explained how to find out how to use the D7000v2 as a router. You will have to work out for yourself how to use whatever mobile device you buy with a router. That is why I suggested that you consult the section here that covers mobile devices.
The other alternative with a mobile front end before your router is to use the D7000v2 as a wireless access point. You can also read about that in the manual for your Netgear modem/router.
