I have two Netgear R6700v3's that are in a host and client Repeater Bridge configuration, with the client router wirelessly repeating one wireless network that is connected by ethernet to the WAN.
Unfortunately, if I am connected to the repeater, I cannot see clients connected to the host.
As of now Google points me to the "everything works just as intended" answers.
Am I out of luck here?
I feel like I'm missing something major.
Any help would be appreciated.
Note: I had previously attempted to set up WDS, but was having the 0% signal problem and was running out of time until my partner needed wifi, so I factory reset both routers and set up the repeater bridge.
Edit: Finished writing my Google story.

My main routers and Access Points are running DD WRT, but If i want a repeater bridge i use FreshTomato ARM (haven’t tried it on MIPS variant). I have a very stable repeater bridge config on several R7000 and R6300v2 (called wireless ethernet bridge in FreshTomato). Haven’t tried it on R6700v3 but its supported so you can try.

To be clear, the clients on the wireless ethernet bridge can see the rest of the network?

Yes, from the bridge side I can use airprint to print on the printer connected to main router. I can also login to severs connected to main router and it works two way so from main router I can see bridge clients too.
