    Second Router (Accessing Configuration Page)

    I was going to add a managed switch but after thinking about it, I decided to buy a second router and take advantage of the WIFI.

    I was able to added a second router (WAN port) to the first router (LAN port) successfully. WIFI is working for both.

    Before I connected the ethernet cable between the two routers, I did have to plug each router (LAN port) into my computer and did the configurations for the WIFI.

    So the question is, when I do the configuration for each router, do I have to plug it directly into my computer? Yes, I can always access the first router because the computer is always connected to it through ethernet cable. The question is there a way to access the second router login page since it is connected to the first router? Putting in the second router's IP Address only timed out.

    The first router and second router has different IP Address.

    What I have tried so far for the Second router:

    • Turned Off DHCP
    • Turned Off UPnP
    • Updated the Internet Gateway to match the IP Address of the First router.


    Did not work.
