Bridge Mode with wlan

Hello

Is it somehow possible to configure the R7000 in bridge mode (2.4ghz) and then use the 5ghz wlan to connect devices wireless instead of wired to the r7000?

Mine shows "wlan off" if in bridge mode.

Thanks in advance

Hi hparegger,

 

For bridge mode, you can only use the router's LAN connection since the wireless is used to connect from the main router. You may try wireless repeating function.
