How to set up lan-lan cascade with Netgear R6300v2
I'm unclear how to set up lan-lan cascade with Netgear R6300v2. I have tried to leave internet as select automatically, and then changed the lan to be 192.168.0.2, while my main router, and therefor...
So, my steps are:
change the lan ip address as mentioned
turn off dhcp server
turn on wireless ap?
Do I need to have the same wireless broadcasts and/or passwords?
Is there any problem connnecting this to UDM as main router?
Thank.
Turning on AP mode, disables the dhcp server.
You can set them with the same ssid/password as the primary router but it won't be a seamless setup. Devices will tend to be sticky and stay connected to the wireless they initially connected to until it drops/becomes unusable.
I prefer to use different ssids in this instance.
