No option to enable WDS Bridging on AX1800

I have looked through all the options and there isn't an option for WDS or any similar features. Only wired Access Point mode.

Hi, as far as I know, the Archer AX1800 doesn't support WDS feature, it can only be used as a wireless router or an access point.

@Kevin_Z They really need to release a firmware update to enable wireless bridge mode. I own the AX1800 and this missing feature makes it useless in my house. If I had CAT5 running everywhere I wouldn't neet their router!

Hi, it seems there might be some misunderstanding, when we mention WDS bridging, which is the feature that allows you to connect the router to another wireless network via the Wi-Fi connection. You can refer to the guide to know more details:

However, what you are talking seems that the basic wireless connection of the AX1800, that is apparently supported on the router, you can connect the wireless devices, such as mobile phones or laptops to the network by entering the correct wireless password. You may find or change the router wireless settings as follows:

I bought the AX6000 and the AX1800 to extend to my upstairs.
I have ahad to run a cable now to the upstairs because WDS is not supported on the 1800.
Also both devices claim to support onemesh. but it seems they cannot act as onemesh clients only hosts.
