Brennan Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 the area in my house is lonley from the rest the wifi didnt reach and I needed more hard lines so instead on buying an extender for the wifi or a switch to get more port I had a extra router so I hooked that up, hey why not i hit two birds with one stone. but now I upgraded the cable boxes in my house to tivo which can communicate with each other but that is nhot possible when they are on different networks so is there a way that I can have my D-Link DI-524 act pretty much as if it was just an access point and switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Disable the DCHP server, don't use the WAN port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr-Protocol Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 If you are looking for wireless coverage, you could have router 2 connect to router 1 to extend the wifi as a mesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 If you are looking for wireless coverage, you could have router 2 connect to router 1 to extend the wifi as a mesh. Two ways you could achieve that, through wire or through bridging mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
