I recently bought the C64 to extend my home network after checking the feature lookup here:

https://www.tp-link.com/en/home-networking/wifi-router/?filterby=AND%7C6086

I've tried in both Access Point Mode and Router mode and in both cases the set up page does not offer WDS Bridging.  I've checked all the headings/options and cannot find any mention of WDS bridging or scan to connect the router to the existing Wifi SSID.   If I look at old threads here with screenshots the set up pages seem to have WDS as an option to enable under the wireless section but my version is missing this option.

If I use Access Point Mode and an ethernet connection to the router then the router  will create its own network but the reason I bought it was to have a Wifi connection without miles of ethernet connecting both routers.   

Have TPLink removed WDS bridging from current models and if so do any of the existing models upport WDS (without requiring an ethernet cable between the routers)?  Also concerned that even if I find a model with WDS support is it likely to be removed in the near future as it seems to have been removed from other routers on the C64 supported features page?

TIA for any advice.
