Hi

Bought via Sotel Gmbh 31 July 2019

I can use router connected to internet via SKY ER115 router/modem, Sky Modem has wifi disabled.

Iam trying to remove sky unit as it suffers from poor latency and issues with assigning i.p addresses. below shows connected direct to sky router/modem 

@Kevin_Z 

Can you give me proper instructions on how to disable the wifi in Sky modem/router? I just bought a TP-Link Archer 6. The original plan was to hook the archer 6 to the sky internet directly but the cable connected to the old sky router/modem was not an ethernet cable. So it appears that I need still need the sky modem/router to enable my archer 6 to work. I just want to disable the wifi provided by the sky modem/router so that the only network that would appear is the network from my TP-Link Archer 6. Please help me. Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. 

 

I understand that you want to remove the Sky router and use the Archer C5400X as the main router to replace it. 

 

While the point is that whether the Archer C5400X can work well without the sky router works as a bridge( wifi disabled, but still works like a router) due to the special DHCP/Mer connection type.

 

Anyway, you can give it a go and test whether the C5400X works well.

 

Otherwise, you may need use the sky router together to make C5400X access internet. 

 

Good day.
