Gateway setting on R7000
Hi. I am trying to implement a configuration where a BT SmartHub2 connects to my BT fibre broadband, but our DHCP and Wifi is provided by the R7000 Nighthawk. Taking guidance from another BT SH2 use...
Some more info - I downloaded the Manual for the R7000 Ac1900. The section on setting up with a fixed IP - which is what I am trying to do - says
Use Static IP Address. Enter the IP address, IP subnet mask, and the gateway IP
address that your ISP assigned. The gateway is the ISP router to which your router
connects.
My problem is that I cannot see in the Admin UI where to input either the subnet mask or the gateway address.
I read on another thread that the R7000 doesn't allow you to specify a Gateway address. I hope this is not the case, and if so then the manual is wrong (maybe a cut and paste from another product's manual?).
All help appreciated.
