Why is Google Wifi not allowing bridge mode?
To enable bridge mode, there needs to be another router between your modem and your router or primary Wifi point. If your router or primary Wifi point's WAN port has a public IP, that means it's directly connected to your modem. In this scenario, the bridge mode option in the app will be unavailable in the app.
