Thanks for the reply, I believe he has it hooked up like this:
Modem > router > booster (plugged into the wall and hooked up via Ethernet upstairs) > booster (plugged into th e wall downstairs) > my router (via Ethernet) > my pc (Ethernet)
I get the conflict with the double routers. How ever my previous basement suite I was able to log into it, I actually bought it while in that place. It was hooked up : modem> Router> Ethernet cable ran downstairs > my router
Only difference I can see is the booster but I have no way of removing that

That's odd. Two routers usually cause these problems. Maybe your previous location had something else.
The obvious answer is to switch your R7000 to AP mode.
- AP mode?

- I have it set up right now as an access point. The internet cable from my booster is in port 1 not the internet port. My pc is running into port 4, and all my wireless stuff (iPhone, xbox, iPad etc) use the wifi from my router. I just don’t understand why I can’t log into it now but at the old place almost same setup I could.
