Tags: #MR500
Model: Archer MR600  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 220517 Rel.52372n

 

 

I'm looking to use my MR500 as a wireless access point into an existing wireless switch/ router (unifi dream machine) so do not need DHCP enabled on the MR500.

In the version of the manual I have for this 3/4G dual band router it shows going to .. Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page and in the first line for the DHCP settings, it clearly shows an enable tick box.

However, when I go to this page on my MR500, there is no tick box there at all, so there doesn't seem to be a way of disabling DHCP

 

Can anyone shed any light on how I might set up the router to just offer up a wired ethernet output, so I can leave the DHCP server on my dream nachine handling this aspect of the routing

 

thanks

Hi,

 

Please see the DHCP enable box marked yellow on the following picture, it is actually the same as that on its user guide, but the picture on the user guide is not the whole page, just part of them, so it looks like on the very top but actually not, sorry for the confusion caused.

Hi, may I have a screenshot of your LAN Settings page? and is the operation mode of your MR500 on 3G/4G Router mode or Wireless Router mode?
