Hey, I see the issue. You have three routers, but they seem to be set up separately. If you want separate IPs for each server, you need a way to share the same LAN between them. Maybe using a network bridge or a VLAN would help. Also, changing ports for RDP isn't working because the ports are on different networks. You might need to configure your routers to connect to the same subnet. Let me know if you need more details!

Your speed remains limited to a single fiber optic link, but you can achieve two fiber connections along with two high-speed routers.

People keep doing this because devices are hidden behind multiple NAT layers. A basic home setup only requires one router, which can serve as a switch or access point for other nodes. Switching some routers to AP mode via their management interfaces keeps everything unified and solves the current issue. @atomium64 Clarify the exact router model and configuration you're using.

I own three routers but only installed one, and I’m struggling to afford a switch.

You seem confused. We still don’t have the specific model of your router. Also, it isn’t clear if the fiber connection ends at a media converter or gateway device. More details about your equipment would be useful.

I still have a question, I couldn’t find anything else. I can reach my main router via the servers, but when I switch the gateway to the primary router it fails.

the wifi provider you signed up with installed the main router and another on the second floor. later i needed a switch to link devices in another room, connecting them via an internet connection through an electric line device. i looked into configuring the router settings and tried my best, but in my main router the LAN IPs are 192.168.100.xxx while it is set up as 192.168.0.xxx. i have a main router—Huawei EG8245H and a server router—Ovislink Evo-W311AR. i want both to use the same IP ranges like the first one.
