Two routers on one network netgear setup
Hi, I'd like to ask for some help setting up my Netgear N300 router as a second router, so it will be on the same network already existing. I managed to make the router function, but it showed up as ...
Thanks guys for your answers, I'll try to make it work as a AP ;-)
Hi, thanks for the reply. I made a quick picture of the network as it is. As I have it now set up, PC1 can see PC2 and PC3, but but not PC4, which is connected on a different router. Same goes for TV3 can see the MY CLOUD, but TV1 and TV2 on the different router not. So there are actually two seperated networks (also two different wifi networks).
Now what I want, is to set up the netgear router, so all the devices will be on the same network. For example so PC1 can see PC4 on the network. Or TV1 can see the MY CLOUD on the network. Is there a way to set up the Netgear router, so all will be on the same network?
your easiest option is to make the Netgear router an Access point...that way it is not acting as a DNS server and all the devices on your network are given their IP address by the Dlink router which will allow them to automatically see each other.
oh by the way, the devices on the second router in your current set up are suffering from double NAT....:)
