Nighthawk X8 AC5000 replacement

I currently have a Netgear Nighthawk X8 AC5000 running in Bridge Mode.

The unit is starting to fail and I would like to purchase a replacement.

Other than searching through the spec sheets of every router, is there a list of available models that are capable of running in Bridge Mode?

I emailed Sales, but have yet to receive any response.

      Thanks.

      I'd looked through some of those but found most were able to "Set up a bridge for a port group or VLAN tag group".

      Yes, I was looking for a wireless bridge mode : client to bridge via ethernet, bridge to router via wireless.
