Model: Archer A8  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Archer A8(US)_V1_200907

As subject asks if the Archer A8/C8 supports wds bridging?

The software settings doens't have an option for WDS nor does it have a "System Parameters" where WDS could be. Would getting an older Archer A7 or even an Asus router be a better bet for bridging capabilites? Thank you.

The web UI may be a slightly different from some other Archer models, you may find the WDS option under Advanced > Wireless > WDS as below, which is similar as on the C80:
