Archer NX200 bridge mode
Hello,
Do you have any plans to implement bridge mode for Archer NX200?
Or can you please forward this request to somewhere where requests for features are?
Archer NX200 is the best 5G router with external antenna ports for reasonable price, but it lacks bridge mode.
And yes, I am not behind CGNAT, and have my own IP address.
Only option is to hassle with DMZ but it overcomplicates stuff.

Hi, May I ask why you need this feature? Is it needed for your network topology?
Or based on what kind of usage scenario do you need this feature?
Or do you just want this product to have more features?
Thanks for your sharing in advance and best regards.

@Marvin_S bridge mode makes using another router possible without double NAT, and only use the NX200 as 5G receiver/sender.
(Sure, you can workaround that by setting the other router in DMZ of NX200, but that will prevent the another router from knowing the real public IP of itself, and also UPnP stops working, and im sure there are more negatives from that workaround than only the above)
Why was bridge mode added to Deco X50-5G?
I dont seriously get it, Deco is the "more simple" product than NX200, but it is the one that gets it but not NX200?

Hi, I went to the FW simulator (FW 1.4) https://emulator.tp-link.com/NX200_1.4.0_Emulator_v1.2/Emulator/index.htm and there's a bridge option (?) Can someone try this configuration and report back? (I haven't bought the router yet)

@Bit2021 hey, that section is not relevant to cellular WAN, that is the wired WAN settings, meaning you could bridge wired connection, as NX200 has ability to have fallback wired connection.

ok, so you are saying that there's no option to use the NX200 as a "purely" 5G modem and then connect/use my own router?
I want to use my own router/Wifi and use the NX200 as a purely 5G modem. Is that possible?

@Bit2021 that is the exact feature request this post is asking to be implemented, so no, not yet.

got it!
thanks!
I need to buy a 5G router in the next few weeks. Hope TP-link can make this work...
There seems to be a new NX210 model coming in (Portugal website)... not sure about the diferences with the NX200
