Using Archer MR600 v2 as a switch

2022-12-20 12:17:52 - last edited 2022-12-21 11:55:45

Hello everybody, I wish to use my tp link router as a switch, now that I have bought a 5g router.

So, according to the guides I've been checking out, I should be able to switch gateway mode OFF (NAT OFF) on ANY wireless router, though I don't seem to find this option.

Can anybody help me figuring this out?

Thanks in advance!

@THECATTO

Use MR600 user guide - Chapter 4.2 to locate the NAT option - it should be in Advanced > Network > Internet.

You should disable the MR600 LAN DHCP server as well - Chapter 11.4.2.

Finally, if you don't plan to use it as an access point, disable its wireless radio as well - Chapter 11.5.1.
