Adding Velop wifi to this router

I have added the Linksys Velop to my home and wondering if there is a way to add as a bridge. I show two seperate wifi and am curious if they are conflicting. I keep hearing someone mention bridging. Not sure what that means

You can put the C7800 in modem only mode. It disables its router functions and would leave the velop controlling all routing/wifi functions.

2020-11-20_10-00-25.jpgThanks so much. WHen i get into the router menu, i dont not see an option for router mode.

Could it be somewhere else in the setup.

Photos have to be approved by a moderator and it takes a while. If you click "choose file" and attach a photo, then it can be viewed. 

You have a C7800?
