Hi Guys

 

Im trying to load balance 2x VDSL connections and a 4G router but with an external DHCP client. Is it possible to have the ER5120 utilise a Netgear Nighthawk router attached as a DHCP router while the ER5120 just acts as a load balancer?

 

Thanks in advance

I think you can make it with the following points:

 

1. Configure the WAN connections on the ER5120 and ensure the WAN links are up before you disable DHCP Server on the ER5120

 

2. Connect the DHCP Router to the LAN port of ER5120, configure the DHCP Router's IP and gateway to fit in the ER5120's LAN network.
