Modem and router on the same network
Hello ! Sorry if this is a noobish question, but I'm just starting to learn about network and servers and I don't really know the terminology and terms to type in my search engine. Also, forgive...

simple.
Put the R6120 in access point mode. that'll have it on the same subnet so all the devices can see each other.

That worked ! Thank you very much.
However, now my router IP adress isn't displayed anymore in my modem's listed devices so I have to "guess" its adress to enter the setup page.
Also, One of my servers isn't listed either in my routers devices list. It has an IP, I can access it, but it is not displayed.
Would you know why this could happen ?

After changing the router over to ap mode, The devices connected to it might need to be rebooted to pull a new ip address that is in the same range as the primary router.
