Model: Archer C1200  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.0.3 Build 20211219 Rel. 67401 (EU)

Hello,

 

I have my own server with its own gateway and bridges configured. I want to create a static route so it can be reached through its own subnet on my LAN. However, when I add it, it doesn't get added to the system route table. I even restarted, and it didn't help a thing.

 

I have refreshed the table already but it doesn't help. Come on TP-Link, why are you leaving a device this bugged? No more security updates sure, but this should just function!

Hello@Minionguyjpro ,

Welcome to our community.

 

Please let me know if your network topology diagram is as follows:

ISP modem—router—main deco )))((( client devices

(Note: — stands for wired connection,)))((( stands for wireless connection )

 

Please confirm that you have correctly configured Static Routing: How to configure Static Routing on wireless routers.

Could you please take screenshots with static route settings after you save them?

Oh and I know the route works, since it did function when I manually added it in the network settings on my laptop and then try to ping clients from the subnet.
