Netgear AC1600 Manual Do Proprietário

You can set up your R6250 Smart WiFi Router to run in Bridge mode. This mode lets you 
connect multiple devices wirelessly at the faster 802.11ac speed. To use the router in Bridge 
mode, you need two WiFi Routers: one set up as a router and the other set up as a bridge. 

Installing your R6250 Smart WiFi Router as a bridge offers the following benefits:

You can take advantage of gigabit WiFi speeds on current devices.

Use Gigabit WiFi for applications like video and gaming.

Connect multiple devices like NAS, Smart TV, NeoTV, Blu-ray Player, game console at 
gigabit WiFi speeds using a WiFi link.

Avoid the need for separate WiFi adapters for each device.

For example, you could install the first router in a room like a home office that has your 
Internet connection. After this router is powered on and set up, set up the second router in 
Bridge mode. Then place the router in Bridge mode in a different room that has your home 
entertainment center. Cable the router in Bridge mode to your Smart TV, DVR, game console 
or Blu-ray player and use its 802.11ac WiFi connection to the first R6300 router.

Make a note of the WiFi settings of the other router to which this router will connect:

You need to know the SSID, WiFi security mode, wireless password, and operating 
frequency (either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz).

On the R6250 Smart WiFi Router that will run in Bridge mode, select Advanced >
