Bridging the Zing (AC771S) to a router (AKA using the zing as the router's client)

[alanhouser]

I've been trying to do this for days, but still haven't found a way to do it.

I'm wanting to use the Zing as the Internet Client —hooked to a router, so I can better use the signal throughout the house.

I've tried USB tethering with the Zing, but that didn't work at all.
The TP-LINK (N600 Dual Band) router has two USB ports, but so-far it looks like you can only use them for sharing printer/drives, etc.

I've even followed to the letter, the TP-LINK instructions on "how to configure WDS Bridging"

My next step will be to research USB Dongles to maybe "grab wifi and convert it to ethernet" somehow.

After posting this, I landed on a Netgear-owned page (not finding now) that stated— there ARE routers made by third-parties that have been configured to work with the Zing. They didn't divulge the list, but the fact that it's possible tells me I need to shop for a new router.

Can anyone point me to a list of routers compatible with the Zing?

Are there no Netgear routers that will work??!?

This is the Netgear information stating that this could be possible: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/23911/~/can-i-use-my-aircard-usb-modem-with-my-3rd-par...

I sent the Zing back to Sprint and opted for the Netgear LTE Gateway LG6100D. On like Donkey Kong.
