TP-LINK Archer AX1500 Access Point mode - No internet connection
Hi,
I've recently bought Archer AX1500 router and wanted to set it up as Acess Point. I was able to do so but I'm not able to reach the Internet through it.
Here are my main router settings, to which I'm connecting the new Archer AX1500 in AP mode (using ETH cable):
- IP: 192.168.100.1
- Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
- DHCP server: ON
- DHCP server addresses range: 192.168.100.5 - 192.168.100.199
After logging in to the router, I've switched it to Access Point mode and Setup WiFi networks (changed SSID and password) and no other settings were changed.
I've connected my new Archer AX1500 using its WLAN port to my main router LAN port (this is how the picture, while switching to AP mode, showed).
This configuration did not work for me - no Internet.
Next, I've configured Archer AX1500 LAN settings:
- Changed its IP to static: 192.168.100.3
- Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
- Default gateway: 192.168.100.1
- Disabled DHCP
I've tried connecting Archer AX1500 using both WLAN and one of LAN ports to my main router LAN port, the result is the same - no Internet.
The cable I connect both routers with should be fine because I've used it to configure the new Archer AX1500 router.
I can see on my main router that the Archer AX1500 is connected to its LAN port with the IP 192.168.100.3 and it's online.
I have another router functioning as AP (TP-Link TL-WR1043N/ND v2). This router is configured the same as my new Archer AX1500 with the change to the IP address which is 192.168.100.2 and it functions properly (I have access to the Internet, I've been using it for few years now).
Any suggestion why I cannot reach the Internet using my new TP-LINK Archer AX1500 router?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Dawid
