Use BT Smart Hub ('Home Hub 6') in bridge mode?


[link to this post]
 
I have bought a TP-Link Archer AX73 to improve the range and speed of the Wi-Fi in my home.

How do I put my BT Smart Hub ('Home Hub 6') in bridge mode?

If it's not possible, is it still possible to use the Archer AX73 with it?

None of the BT Hubs support bridge mode.
Only the BT Business hubs support bridge mode.

Bridge mode is not possible; the AX73 should be able to be used in access point mode.

The AX73 will need to be put into access point mode

If you have a landline phone and it's been moved to Digital Voice then you cannot replace the Smart Hub 2 with any other router (except presumably whatever the next version of the Smart Hub is).
