Netgear nighthawk R7000
Hello, I have problem with connection to web interface of my router Netgear nighthawk R7000 (AC1900). Router has static IP (192.168.0.10) After restarting it is possible to connect and configure...
Yes, it's correct Netgear router is used as a second router behind ISP router.
I understand that I have a double NAT condition, but in my case it's not a problem.
Double NAT can (!) cause troubles for the end users behind the 2nd router with:
Online games, VPN connections, Port forwarding and triggering, Secure websites that use SSL
In my case I need two different private networks and I don't have any users with the internet connection problems.
My problem is that I'm not able to connect to UI of Netgear router not from LAN side (2nd private network), neither from WAN side (1st private network) after a couple weeks of operation. Netgear router is visible from both sides with static IP addresses and only restart of the Netgear router solves the problem for some time.
In my point of view it's not caused by double NAT.
Thanks for your suggestions and solutions, but they change my netwerk topology.
I believe you should be able to reach the host routers web page thru the R7000 while it's behind the host router, You'll not be able to reach the R7000 web page from the host router in that direction thru the R7000 WAN port. You'll have to be on the R7000 side for that.
It's for sure also possible to connect to NG router from WAN port side if remote management is switched on:
ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Remote Management
Ya, that was removed a while back for I believe security reasons and set to use the NH app.
So no more WAN side access to the routers web page.
I didn't know this yet. Thanks for the info.
