Archer C6

AC 1200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Routers 

 

I am using the router of above model number in range extended mode (Wireless Bridge Mode ) and  made all settings as mentioned in the guide. The router works as range extender without any issues. But when the power is off and comes back, the settings are lost and it is not able to connect to the router with the configured IP address. I will have to rsest the router to factory settings and then again have to reconfigure it as range extender. How to solve this problem?

Is the C6 disconnected from the host router or does it lose the settings completely? How did you find it out? When configuring the C6 as an extender, you may use a fixed IP address for it, which would be even better if you set it in the IP range of the host. I mean you can set a static IP for it like 192.168.0.2 if the IP of the host is 192.168.0.1. Try logging into the web page next time if it doesn't connect to the host after a power outage, and check if the WDS status still displays RUN.

 

You'd better fix the wireless channel on the host router to a clear one to avoid interference, which may also cause the extender to lose the connection.
