Bridge mode on NG routers is that the router turns into a Wireless Client or adapter. This means that the bridged router connects wirelessly to a HOST service router thus becomes a pass thru for traffic from the HOST router to any ethernet connected devices to the bridge router. When in bridge mode, most if not all additional features on the bridge router gets disabled. All addresses and routing abilities are handled by the HOST router.
Features like Armor and SPC are disabled on the NG bridged router.
