RAX40 can I connect it to existing wifi ?

There is a wifi network and I would like to connect my RAX40 to it so I can use it as a router with my wired devices. Is it possible ?

Not as a router, but in Access Point mode (AP).

If it has wireless bridge mode, you can connect the RAX to a SSID broadcast and use it to connect wired devices to the RAX and get services. 

 

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the RAX (WiFi 6) products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with RAX WiFi6 routers and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this "general router" forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Thank you.
