Note that the Technicolor C1100T is actually a DSL modem+router, not
a simple "modem". Is your CenturyLink service DSL, or something newer
and more exotic?You have a very different situation. You should start your own new
thread for your own different problem. When you do that, you should
include some basic information, including:Why?
Did you want to connect client devices to both the C1100T and the
R8000, or did you want to use the C1100T as a modem-only ("bridge
mode"), and connect all your client devices to the R8000?Thank you for your response. I am aware that the Centurylink C1100t is a modem/router. I was told by Centurylink I could connect it to a Nighthawk router. The reason is to expand /improve my wifi distribution. My son gave me the Nighthawk router and I downloaded the Install Manual, and followed the steps. First of all will it do me any good to wifi-wise to connect the two, or am I just wasting my time. CenturyLink wifi in my area is quite narrow bandwidth and slow. Will this help or not? You sound like you might know. Appreciate any help, thanks.
