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...
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.
The ones listed in the applies to should have the wirleess bridge mode feature as well.
I wish that were true. But only one that I found while randomly searching (RAX30) mentioned "Enable bridge mode" - the wireless bridge I need.
Enable Bridge Mode maybe referring to wireless bridge mode. All the models listed should support the wireless bridge mode feature.
That's what's confusing.
All the ones I've looked at mention "Set up a bridge for a port group or VLAN tag group", but only a few also have a section on "Enable bridge mode". They're listed as two different features. I don't want to buy one that doesn't have what I need. I guess I'll have to spend the time to search through all of them, note the ones that have "Enable bridge mode" and then check those for price and other features.
Thanks for your time.
