I recently converted my old NETGEAR Wireless Router model WGR614 v6 to an Access Point. It took me sometime, but this video certainly was a great help. Thanks. The three main points that came out of the Video were configuring your old Wireless Router with a Static IP address and a Domain Name Server Address, along with disabling the DNS (Dynamic Name Service) and configuring the Wireless Network. Thanks again.
Thank you very much for this video. I had trouble extending my Internet service. So I bought a new router TP link with Telephony to replace my 1-year old TP link MR500 which couldn't work with my landline. I followed the instructions in your video, including TP link AV1000 extender. Perfect! Absolutely fantastic! I'm more than happy. I'll recommend your video for anyone who needs. And I'll like your video over and over.
Greetings from Sri Lanka.!!!. I followed your instructions to extend my home internet using a D-Link router, and it worked successfully. My internet had been weakened due to a broken antenna. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and providing clear instructions. I greatly appreciate it.
You guys knew that he was being sarcastic when he used that "advance" tool, right? Well, he got me too. I mean when he pushed that "gadget" up, I thought it was a new device that literally identifies which router to reset. But look who's laughing now. Hats off for his humour. He'd make a great teacher/professor. I'm sure his lectures won't be dry and boring.
Very helpful video. I'm extending between 2 buildings using a TP-LInk CPE605 and this has enabled me to create the extended router in the other building. Thank you 👍
I haven't had great luck with powerline Ethernet, but if it's your only option it's okay. If your home has coaxial cables run to convenient locations MOCA adapters are much faster and much more reliable and consistent and not affected by things like vacuums and microwaves. I've got that same Asus RT-AX58U. It's a great router for the money. I was using one, then got a great deal on an RT-AX82U, so now I'm running them in an Aimesh configuration as access points using MOCA Ethernet as the backhaul and it's pretty awesome, I must say. You also get the benefit of better latency if you want to plug a computer or console into the Ethernet ports on the remote access point. I can't say I'm a fan of D-Link. My previous setup was by them. The hardware was very good, but they basically abandoned it completely after less than two years and they brought out very few updates in that time. Asus seems to get security patches out within a few months of disclosure. For me, a commitment to regular security updates for many years has become a major factor in purchasing any tech. At this point, I'll only buy a Samsung, Google, or Apple phone because nobody else will commit to multiple years of security updates.
You're the best! Should've checked your videos first before anywhere else. Watched this and was finally able to set up my old DLink 880L as an AP, with an Asus AX88U Pro as the main router. Very clear instructions as always! Thank you again! 👊🏻
Thank you for this video, I was using router than you but everything still worked. I had a little trouble with the ethernet adapter but got it working after a few tries.
This is hands down the best way to extend your wifi in your home, forget about mesh, been there done that, a cabled AP will always be better, and you get solid speeds too.
Clearly explained and by using a powerline adapter it was just what I was looking for, many thanks for the great video and for the explanation of high tech reset tool that was used LOL.

I really learn a lot from your videos, thank you. One question I have, though, is do I name the wifi network through the extender router the same as the wifi network from the new router? Thank you.
Hi there thank you for sharing the knowledge. I have managed to connect successfully with WiFi, able to browse, etc but however I can't login into certain websites. It allows me to login using my primary router but not via the new 2nd TP Link router. I have left the name and password unchanged . Can you please advise the reason and solution. It seems like the external servers may be thinking my connection via the 2nd router ( now wifi extender) is unsecured?
It's not the toothpick that made me laugh, but the naughty smile after you made the joke. ;) Oh and I never realized that powerline ethernet adapters existed. I assumed they worked with a wireless signal!
Hi I have done all you have said and it works really good I can connect my laptop and my phone on the second router and my firestick but I can't get my smart plugs to connect at all they only connect to the frist router which is upstairs and I really need them to connect to the second router which is downstairs any help would be very much appreciated
Usually, these smart devices use the 2.4GHz band, if you didn't enable it on the Access Point, then they cannot connect to it. Another issue might be the WPA3 security. If enabled on the Access Point, some older devices are not compatible with it
THAT is what I was wondering as well! Why can't you use the same wifi network name that you have on your main router? I think this is my issue in setting mine up. Both similar model routers, too.
@@robinvanasten3840 So, I changed the SSIDs on the AP router to differ from the main one and everything just worked. I verified that I am joining the SSID on the AP but I am still getting my DHCP from the main router. Works good so far!
Amazing and straight to the point, I have one question please, in the main router the range of the IP addresses was from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254, so I changed it to start from 192.168.1.11, and I typed 192.168.1.3 in the access point. Is it going to do the job? Or I did something wrong?
Great video. But there is something I don't understand. If you change the IP address and disable the DHCP serve on the old router (the one being used to extend the signal) why do you need to change the range of IP addresses that the new router is distributing? Please help me understand, if the DHCP server is disabled then the old router is now just a switch like any other switch ....... and if I connected a regular switch to the new router I wouldn't have to change the range of IP addresses the new router is distributing in order to ensure that the regular common-or-garden switch would work. Thanks for your advice! 🤞
The difference between a switch and a router is: 1- Router distributes IP addresses whereas a switch doesn't 2- A Router has Wi-Fi capabilities whereas a switch doesn't If you let the old router distribute IP addresses, it will conflict with the main router
Are you able to utilize the open LAN ports on the new (extended) router or will everything have to connect to it wirelessly? I'd like to hardwire some connections to my new router which is acting as the extended router in my home office but it's not a deal breaker if that is not doable.
Everything was going well with me until you produced the TPLink plug-in-extender as a means of connecting the 2 routers! The problem is that for these connecters are fine when they are on the same ring main from the fuse board which I can’t arrange because the incoming service is in a small service room plugged into a power point that is on a spur for that room only!
Thanks for the video. I’ve watched it a few times now and I don’t think that my old Netgear 6400 is actually working as a repeater. When I unplugged it and moved it to another area of my house the devices that are using the same connections don’t seem to work. I’m missing something….
I have made 2 videos on this, one for Asus that is public: th-cam.com/video/XFNb7pggbVs/w-d-xo.html and one for Tenda that will be public soon, it is now for members only: th-cam.com/video/gwA5KyrG2aY/w-d-xo.html
The two routers must be physically connected via LAN cable to work? I am looking for a way to receive transmitted signal wirelessly from one house (a B & B) to the owner's nearby house approximately 100 ft away. They've been connecting to router in the B&B...but signal is weak in their house.
If you don't want the routers to connect physically, you need to have a router that has Wi-Fi extender mode or a part of a mesh system. Here are some videos to help you with this: th-cam.com/video/gwA5KyrG2aY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/XFNb7pggbVs/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/rHbgsXIYdW0/w-d-xo.html
is it weird to have the in use router and the old router one wishes to use as a wifi access point have the same IP, and when I use the ip I get sent to the in use router?
To connect new router to old router (as an access point) using ethernet cable, is it using cross-over type or using straight type for the ethernet cable ?
I know you told me before that my theory is possible now i would like to learn how to do it since I now have the Asus router. I have a TP-Link Wireless N Router WR840N Model No. TL-WR840N I want to add my Asus RT-AC68U to the network without cables, what mode can I do this in on the Asus? Any reference tutorials or details on how to do it? I also want to be able to access the VPN option on the asus. cant access the tp-link only wirelessly.
Here's the video that shows you how to configure the Asus router into an extender without cables.th-cam.com/video/XFNb7pggbVs/w-d-xo.html For the VPN, it will only work on the TP-Link router.
@@KnowledgeSharingTech Just a wild shot in the dark and tell me if it is possible , what if I flash the 68U with Asus-Merlin , use the 68U as a repeater. Could I then put VPN on the repeater?
Thanks for the video. What I want to know is can I connect the old router to a switch that is already connected to the main router via ethernet cable to use as an switch instead of a WiFi extender or access point. Can it work as a switch and WiFi extender simultaneously? Tks
@@KnowledgeSharingTech I'm looking to set one up in an office that has no Ethernet jack, and I can't run a cable through the walls. So I'm needing one that's inexpensive that can work as an access point and I can plug in the Ethernet only printer into it.
@LVL58Designs Watch this video and get one exactly like in this video. th-cam.com/video/XFNb7pggbVs/w-d-xo.html . You can find a used one on Amazon or ebay.
In my use case, main router delivers via gigabit port and my secondary router as a repeater only has 10/100mbps port, so if my internet speed is 1Gbps, then how much internet speed will I get in my secondary routers ports (excluding the connected one) and Wi-Fi medium
Yes you can, but technically speaking it is Not wise. An ever changing IP address on a Secondary Router will lead to some issues down the line. Plus it will be inconvenient if you would ever need the IP address to access the Secondary Router GUI later. So it's best to let it remain Static if it will remain in the same Network for a infinite time.
Although I follow the steps and managed to set up the secondary router, the signal is in not way better than without the secondary router. During messing about, the signal transiently improved as if the secondary router is working (getting speed of 600mbps upload and download) but this quickly disintegrated into no connection. Now I’m back to wonky connection again
I followed this and I added a 2nd router in my basement, connected it to the main router via a cat 6 cable. I have around 25 devices, all works fine EXCEPT 2 devices, a Samsung Galaxy Tablet and a Kindle Fire. It connects to the local network, but cannot connect to the internet, I get the message, No Internet Connection. I checked the gateway, all good, I changed the IP address of the new router, same; I changed the SSID (and worked for about 30 seconds, then stopped). As soon as I switch off the 2nd router - all works fine. Any ideas???
I don't know why the page for 192.168.0.1 it's not opening which wifi should I connect I connected my pc with the old router however the page can't be loaded

Don't you have to first connect the two routers together with an ethernet cable? Or does this work wirelessly?
very clear explanation. Thanks
Can you use this set up if your using a MoCA adapter?
Even a cheap mesh system for 200 or less is far superiors to extenders or repeater, but if you're on a budget then its better than nothing i guess.

If you change the IP address and disable the DHCP serve on the old router (the one being used to extend the signal) why do you need to change the range of IP addresses that the new router is distributing?

The difference between a switch and a router is:

Does connecting two routers like this boost the signal?
It repeats the signal so you have more coverage, so in way, it boosts it
In my use case, main router delivers via gigabit port and my secondary router as a repeater only has 10/100mbps port, so if my internet speed is 1Gbps, then how much internet speed will I get in my secondary routers ports (excluding the connected one) and Wi-Fi medium
depend on your 2nd router
Can't you turn off dhcp on the extender and let the main router just assign it an ip address? Instead of giving it a static ip?
Yes you can, but technically speaking it is Not wise.
An ever changing IP address on a Secondary Router will lead to some issues down the line.

During messing about, the signal transiently improved as if the secondary router is working (getting speed of 600mbps upload and download) but this quickly disintegrated into no connection. Now I’m back to wonky connection again
Have you toggled around the Channel# and also the Channel Width? 👍
If your router doesnt have the repiter opcions, ????
2nd router use same ssid or different one? if I add 3 router, any special? thanks
It is always better to use different SSIDs
@@KnowledgeSharingTech if I add 3 router, 1 main to 2 router, any special setting? thanks
I followed this and I added a 2nd router in my basement, connected it to the main router via a cat 6 cable. I have around 25 devices, all works fine EXCEPT 2 devices, a Samsung Galaxy Tablet and a Kindle Fire. It connects to the local network, but cannot connect to the internet, I get the message, No Internet Connection. I checked the gateway, all good, I changed the IP address of the new router, same; I changed the SSID (and worked for about 30 seconds, then stopped).
As soon as I switch off the 2nd router - all works fine.
Any ideas???
I think I fixed it - I turned off all the IP6 settings on the 2nd router
