Configure WNDR4300 as base and WNDR3700v3 as access point to create a bridge
I am trying to create a wireless bridge to connect ethernet components in one part of my home to the internet. The intenert connection comes through a cable modem connected to my wireless router WNDR4300. I want to re-purpose a WNDR3700v3 to bring the internet access to devices which do not have wireless capability (DVD Player and Roku) but have ethernet ports. I followed the instructions for each of the routers (different), but I must have missed or done something wrong, because it didn't work. Can someone help? Thanks. JuanSolvedwndr3700v3 guest network allows access to my private network
I have a netgear N600 WNDR3700v3 updated to the latest firmware update. I have connected the WAN to my home network and set it to obtain an IP automatically. So my home network is 192.168.1.x and so the router nicely picks up 192.168.1.23 and I have set the DHCP server to make the LAN side of the router 10.0.0.x and that is working nicely so when I connect wirelessly or wired to the WAN, it picks up something like 10.0.0.101. I have enabled a wireless network, call it NETWORKA and NETWORKG and that works fine. I also created a guest network call it GUESTA and GUESTB. I thought that this would prevent guests from seeing my home network. Alas this is not so. While logged onto the guest network from my laptop with a wireless connection I get an IP of 10.0.101, but I can both ping my desktop computer at 192.168.1.12 and if I map a network drive from the laptop using \\192.168.1.12\temp it connects. Seems to me like guest neworking is not giving me the isolation that I need from the guests I give the guest network password to. Do I misunderstand? Shouldn't a guest network isolate the guest from my internal home network? Am I missing something? Looking forward to help on this issues.Solved
