I can't find that in the Netgear system?
Do you mean C7800 cable modem/router?

A modem in bridge mode does not deliver WiFi.

Re: Connect google mesh to nighthawk 5G
1. The C7800 (if thats what you have) doesn't have a bridge mode. It has a modem only mode and a modem/router mode.

2. the google mesh setups need their own router to run off. they don't have a wisp mode to connect to another routers wifi and act as repeaters. Only their own.
3. so I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do here.
Do you have the C7800 setup in modem only mode? If so, simple connect the google mesh router to the c7800 in port 1 and then setup the google mesh's satellites. Or maybe a better description of what you're attempting might help

We still don't know what you have in "bridge mode".
I have replaced it with the Orbi and the Orbi passes by the 2.4 and connects to the 5G.
Good for you, although it doesn't make much sense.
