Unable to configure the second router.
Unable to configure the second router.
Yes, but you won't know the IP address needed to log in, and technically acting as an "access point" doesn't require a local IP on your network. You just need the IP to change its settings. I'd keep it in router mode, set up the Wi-Fi, turn off DHCP, and assign the IP as .2 (compared to your router's default .1). Then configure the LAN port. That should work. Also, if your C60 router is 192.168.1.1, you must use 192.168.1.x for your WLAN. Otherwise, you won't be able to connect. Both need the first three octets identical. X.X.X.
The only point is that I wouldn't suggest using .2 since it might be assigned to another device through DHCP. I typically use IP addresses at the end of the subnet, like .240 to .254. Another choice would be to adjust the DHCP settings on the main router, though that's more complex.
I believe the DHCP issue isn't working on this router. Turning it off causes me to lose connection to the web portal, and I'm unsure how to regain access. Both access point and router modes lose functionality when DHCP is disabled. I haven't updated the firmware yet, so I'll attempt that now.
When you enable DHCP for the Wi-Fi on that router, it allows you to join the general internet but prevents access to the web portal. The IP address you use depends on your connection setup—either the one assigned by the router or the one provided by your main router.
I can connect to router, But no access to internet. To access web panel, I have tried default IP address, Address I manually put in LAN IP address box, Address that is assigned by main router (Main router-DHCP client list and IP address that is assigned to second router) None gets me to portal. Nor ipconfig command from CMD shows gateway address (As far as my knowledge goes, That should be address I should put in browser and access web panel) And on top of that, How stupid might it sound, I also can't access to main router web panel when I'm connected via WiFi. When I try to visit 192.168.0.1 it gets stuck on blue screen, Same happens with phone. I can access panel if I plug cable to notebook. This happens only when I disable DHCP on second router, Otherwise I can access web panel on main router any time. Somehow disabling DHCP on second router does stupid things I can't completely explain.
Yes, the second router is linked to the first one via the LAN port.
Please share the relevant screenshots for C60: Advanced > Network > ‘LAN’ & ‘DHCP Server’. Regarding the WR845N emulator, let me know where the AP mode activation switch is located on your device.
I've uploaded the screenshots and updated the firmware. I'm trying router in access point mode, changed LAN type to static IP, turned off DHCP, and restarted it. The cable is plugged into the yellow LAN port. After reconnecting, I still can't get internet and can't reach the second router's web panel. The ipconfig image from the main router shows the issue. Could you clarify what's happening?
