Part of my house gets little to no wi-fi and I want to get that covered properly. So, I have an Asus AX-86U router and was thinking about getting a newer BE one and making the old one the AP/mesh/whatever. I’m going to run a cable to the bad part of the house and I also want to be able to use the old router like a switch (it’ll be by the TV and consoles). What’s the best way to set that up?
Most routers will have an “extender” or “AP” mode, main thing is to disable the DHCP server on one of them, but keep the same wifi name and password for both and it should work OK.
I guess for the secondary device, I would also set it to a static IP address, let me know if you need help with that.
Okay, that’s all stuff I’ve done before. I’ve just never setup a multi-router config before so I wanted to check that there wasn’t anything I was missing.
