| Thanks golfnut.
I made a mistake in my original post. I have the first router in “repeater bridge” mode to make it work this way. It is not able to do what I have described in any other mode including client mode.
I don’t know if that makes a difference to your suggestions or not. I will try to edit the post soon. Now that I have it working I am taking screenshots of every tab and every sub-tab of every tab in the dd-wrt configuration so if I do this again I don’t have to spend so much time figuring it out.
The default router IP is of course 192.168.1.1. I have changed that to 192.168.1.9.
I’m not sure I need to do that but I did it last time. It makes sense to me that I would have to because the other router that is set up normally has an IP address of 192.168.1.1 and I would think it would be bad for the repeater bridge and the normal one to be set as the same IP.
When I am using it I have an Ethernet cable going from the Ethernet port on my computer to the L1 port on the router that is configured normally.
When I am trying to re-configure it I unplug that Ethernet cable from the L1 of the normal router and I plug it in to the L1 of the repeater-bridge router and then type in 192.168.1.9. When that failed I restarted my computer and tried again. After that I gave up and reset the router-bridge configured router. | |
