Trying to bridge a second nighthawk to my main nighthawk&nbsp; router.&nbsp; In all of the setup guides I read not one mentioned when and where to plug second router to.&nbsp; Right now I have a cable connection from main router to pc and a nighthawk just sitting here.&nbsp; What next??

Correct. with the A router already setup, just configure the B router in bridge mode for A routers SSID name and PW.

So how do I access B router?&nbsp; With my hard wire from A router?&nbsp; If so would I not access A routers setup?
