Connecting MR1100 hotspot to a RAX29 router
So I don’t know a whole lot about it because I’ve only been learning about it for a week, but I’m struggling to get my RAX29 router to work with my MR1100 hotspot.
From everything I’ve read, for the hotspot I need to enable IP passthrough, turn off DHCP, change the usb port to charge only, and disable standby. Well I’ve done that multiple times, and my router still won’t connect to the internet. I have no idea what I’m missing and any help would be appreciated.

I thick DHCP needs to be enabled on the MR1100 and use it's IP pass thru/DMZ for the RAX router.
Why not use the MR as your main router and the RAX in AP mode?
You might be best to check the mobile routers forum for additional help and information regarding adding of a external router the the MR cell router:
