Model: Archer C6  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.0

Hello all,

 

I have bought an Archer C6 router in Amazon in order to extend my network provider wifi due to in some rooms of my house I have a low wifi...

 

My problem is that I don't find WDS Bridge mode so I have performed an access point mode, that is a temporaly solution cause I have to turn off and turn on every time I move over my house...

 

I don't know if is it explained properly.

 

I suspect that Archer C6 is not compatible with that mode so I have to buy another model.

 

Thanks in advance,

Best regards.

If You cannot find WDS check if:

 

  1. Operation Mode is set to Router (not Access Point).
  2. WDS is enabled in advanced options -> system tools -> system parameters.

 

Cheers!
