Connecting
I’m trying to connect this to a PS4 in a different room to the modem. I have calibrated the router but for some reason I can’t get it to connect. When I go on the app it says that the internet is offline. Does it always have to be wired to the modem?
Model: R7000|AC1900 Smart WIFI Router

Re: Connecting
What modem do you have?
If its a modem/router combo device, then you could put the R7000 in bridge mode.
but if its a modem only device, the router does need to connect to the modem

Re: Connecting
If you look at the label on it, it should have a model.
that'll tell us if its a modem, if its a modem/router combo device, or what it is exactly.
If its a combo device, then you could setup the R7000 in bridge more or even use it as a repeater
