Model: Archer C60  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: AC1350

Hello,
 

I am on Airtel Broadband using Nokia ONT device G-2425G-A, channel 36. After enabling my TP link router (Archer C60 AC1350) as repeater, internet is not working on devices connected through the TP link router. It works fine if I enable bridging using 2.4Ghz band but doesn't work with 5Ghz band. Please help.

 

Steps for configuration -

1. Set router IP to 192.168.1.2

2. Advanced - Network - Lan - Set IP

Advanced - System Tools - System Parameters - Enable WDS bridging for 5ghz band

3. Advanced - Network - DHCP Server - UNCHECK enable DHCP server

Have you tried to set the WDS mode like this:

 

 

A good practice is to set the repeater IP address outside the main router DHCP pool range (e.g. 192.168.1.254) or make an Address Reservation if you want it to be in the DHCP pool range.

If this was helpful click once on the arrow pointing upward. If this solves your issue, click once the star to mark it as a "Recommended Solution".
