Change default gateway R6230
Netgear Nighthawk
Trying to add a second router in my shop, after several YouTube videos it looks easy but its killing me.
I disabled the DHCP then I'm told to change my default gateway to the same as my main router, ok.
Got to the LAN setup, it shows IP address, subnet mask, but no default gateway.
I've clicked on very thing that can be clicked but I can't find it.
I want to use the wireless AND the wired for my main computer, help please!

Is this the model router your trying to add as a 2nd router? What is the brand and model of the first router?
Only the WAN side would be needing to be changed. Or configure AP mode on the 2nd router for less configuration hassel.
