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.

If your talking about Wireless bridge mode. Most RAX and RAXE series have wireless bridge mode support.
Look thru the user manual and if you don't see wireless bridge mode mentioned, then you can presume it doesn't support it.
Or can take a look at this article and look at the applies to lists for models supporting:
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.
