Bridging a R7800 main with R6700v3 secondary
Hello. I need help connected 2nd router as a bridge/repeater. The model numbers are: R6700V3 as a 2nd router to be connected to an R7800 as the main router. I have tried to update the settings on the ...
I have done that, didn't do anything. I've spoofed the secondary router with MAC address, Subnet mask, DNS, and changed the IP address. That didn't work. I've tried WAN and LAN ports, I've tried to enable bridging, but the I can't connect to the Wi-Fi. I've tried so many paths but I can get the secondary router to connect to the internet even when it shows its connected in the settings. I'm at a loss. Any additional insights are appreciated.
Try setting up the R6700 router in AP mode behind the R7800:
