Hi,

 

Does FAST 5364-3.T8 support bridge mode yet?

 

And if I does would I be able to connect to a mobile hotspot and have this out out via ethernet?

 

Thanks!

Simple answer - no.

 

If your mobile is running as a WiFi hotspot, it is broadcasting out a new network name (SSID) for other devices to connect to. The 5364 would need to act as  a WiFi client to connect, like any other phone or tablet etc to your hotspot. It can only be used, as designed, as an AP (wireless Access Point).

Hi, thanks for the response. I ask because my FTTP is down, and wondering if in bridge mode I can connect the router to my mobile hotspot and then use the connection as ethernet. I have a device that needs to be wired. I have this hub and and eero 6 extender that I don't use, just wondering what options I have.

Why do you want to put it into Bridge mode? I ask because most people mistakenly mean Modem mode. When I know what you want to do, I will answer your question & tell you how to configure the 5364, to achieve what you want.
