Yes, you can use an Optimum router as an access point.

@Saksham Well appreciates the effort. I'm planning to test a Verizon router instead, as I didn't use one during my previous Verizon plan.
The Verizon connection functions properly, DHCP was turned off, and an unused IP from the first router (192.168.1.2) was assigned. The Verizon router is connected via LAN to the Netgear one, both using 5GHz Wi-Fi. I’m checking if it’s possible to merge these networks so devices automatically switch to the strongest available connection.
