AX1800 RAX10 as a wireless bridge

Can this router be used as a wireless bridge, making it connect to an existing wireless network through Wi-Fi, as a client, and provide access to that network to devices connected to its own ethernet ports? I'm trying to connect two NASes to my network from a position where no wired connection is available.

Check under Advanced tab/Advanced Settings for modes. You should see Router/AP and maybe Bridge (Wireless Bridge) if this model router supports it. Then try under Advanced tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings and scroll down the page towards the bottom to see if you might see a option called "Use Other Operation Mode" maybe seen here. This would be bridge mode.

Is there no way to do this in the app?  I notice there is no “advanced” option anywhere in the app

You can’t connect with the app at all io ce the device is in bridge mode, so i would think not, no.
