Netgear wifi extension compatibility ac1200

Moving to a HomeHub 4000, I was informed the 3000 does not have third party compatibility. Does anyone know if the 4000 does?

For Bridge mode, the DMZ / Advanced DMZ in the Advanced Tool section of the GUI should provide the necessary functionalities needed.

Depending on the scenario you want to achieve, in your 3rd party device that should be connected on a LAN port you may also need to do some or all the following configuration tasks:

Turn off Whole Home Wi-Fi and Primary Wi-Fi network on the HH4K / Enable Wi-Fi on device
Turn off DHCP in the HH4K / Enable DHCP on your device
Configure PPPoE settings on your device by either inputting you Bell b1 and password [Bell Internet user ID (e.g., b1xxxxxx)] - (under the internet tab on the top page of the GUI) or inputting other credentials you may want to use. This will circumvent the HH4K NAT.
