Network layout improvement
I have the following network layout, with Windows 10.
The internet is accessed thru comcast. The WNDR4300 is hard wired to my computer and to the WNR2020 which is in the front of the house. The entertainment is is hardwired to the WNR2020 and we use it for WIFI on phones and 2nd computer.
The phones particularly do not stay connected to the WNR2020 and routinely must be re connected. When I installed the WNR2020 it seemed to map directly to the WNDR4300. Maybe I need to upgrade the modems, but other than the connect issue in the front of the house they seem to be working well.
Any suggestions, I have thought that maybe instead of having the IP addresses assigned by the modems they should be fixed. Thanks
Thank, sounds like you have upped your system to WIFI 6. Pretty sure that would not help me due to Cable limits. Sounds nice though.
Will I be able to tie in my printer to the Orbi system with the Netgear ReadyShare app?

You didn't give us much.
1. what modem do you have from comcast?
2. is it only devices connected to the wnr2020?
3. is the wndr2020 in router or access point mode?
I have a Zoom 3.0 Series 1094, Model 5341J bringing in the comcast signal.
Only problem is connectivity to the WNR2020.
and the WNR2020 is in Router Mode
Actually I went back to that computer in the front room and noticed that when I logged in it actually took me to the WNDR4300 which is in Router Mode. I am not sure about the WNR2020 since when I try to log in with 192.168.1.1 I only get to the 4300
