bridging n600 c3700 and r6400

I don't get the wireless range I need for my home from my present modem/route the N600 3700. I bought an R6400 and was planning bridge it to the 3700.  But I must have read the wrong manual for the N600. In the admin section of my router/modem, I can't find any bridge configuration. Is this possible?  I was hoping not to  have to replace the modem.

Hi @fredathome,

 

There is no additional configuration that needs to be done with your C3700. You can setup the R6400 as an access point by following the instructions found on page 128 of the user manual for the R6400 as suggested by @netwrks. Please feel free to respond if you have any clarifications.

The manual shows using the 6400 as an Access Point on Page 128.

Thank you so much.  I didn't understand what an access point was b4 posting the question.  It is working well for me.
