I want to use it as extender, How to setup WDS R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200
I have wifi dongle, it's jioFi. I want to extend it's wifi range by using my netgear router as extender, How do I set up WDS on my netgear router ? model is R8000 — Nighthawk X6 AC3200
The R8000 doesn't have an extender mode. You could hardwire it in and use it as an access point.

could you please elaborate more on "HardWire"?----In access point mode, the R8000 needs to be connected back to the primary router using a hardline. Meaning ethernet. That could be done using just an ethernet cable, using a powerline connection, or even using moca adapters (ethernet over coax).and .. CM2000-> RAX200-> GS716v2-> EX8000
What are thsese numbers ? are these model numbers of routers ?----Its my signature with my current setup I'm using.
plemans really appreciate for your quick response
however i can not connect ethernet cable to router
reason is - its a dongle which uses micro USB cord (same as android phone charger)
I have this JIO wifi Dongle
