Bridge Mode for 5Ghz Connection with Netgear Nighthawk R7000p as extender
Hello Everyone ...
I am planning to buy an Archer C6 to be used as a main router i e the root router. I would also like it to connect wirelessly to a Netgear Nighthawk R7000p router that i wish to use to extend my wifi network.
The R7000p doesn't have a repeater mode but has a bridge mode.
So in essence my query is:
1: Can Archer C6 Connect wirelessly as the root router with Nighthawk R7000p configued in the bridge mode in 5G or 2.4 G Frequency.
2: Also can i also connect another old N300 routers from Netgear that have wirless repeater mode in 2.4G frequency as extenders alongwith the Nighthawk R7000p configured in bridge mode.
3: If this or these are possible ... Can I do it via the wds bridge function in Archer C6
Request the experts to please help as i need to make a quick yet informed decision to buy the same.
Thank you
PS: Compatibility to connect and use the Netgear Nighthawk R7000p configured in bridge mode is vital.
Nighthawk R7000p is an AC2300 router from Netgear.
