Levent's statement is accurate. Many contemporary routers offer settings to adjust to various modes, ensuring there exists a default configuration that handles these changes automatically.

Just adhere to what Levent instructed. Open the router settings page. Turn off DHCP. Apply a static IP address. Connect the old router to the new one using an Ethernet cable. That should resolve the issue.

I attempted it but it didn't appear in the main router's connected devices list.

I haven't checked the router yet. Could you confirm whether it's functioning properly? If it is, I can help you connect your other devices and ensure you have internet access.

It worked. You reached the configuration via 10.0.0.138, so you don't need to change it.

It might not work because your PC is connected to the main router instead of the Switch router.

Turn off DHCP on the "swithc router" or the main router.

I managed it successfully... however, a few ports aren't responding. I disabled the firewall temporarily, but now I can't connect via SSH or FTP to other machines due to the connection refusal.
