How to configure double router and keep Onemesh?
Here's the full story guys
I recently got Verizon fiber. The service is blazing fast, as expected. Unfortunately to have the speed I'm paying for, I need to have my gaming router as a second router in wired piggyback fashion to their router. If I don't, my upload speed tanks hard
This was tested on the Speedtest app. You can see by the time stamps, but I'll clarify just in case. The 2 at the bottom is without their router with just the Archer, and the 2 at the top is with the Verizon router and the Archer plugged into that. This is of course based on the testing environment of the app and some other websites test higher with fluctuations involved, but you get the idea
If I have them piggyback like this I have long loading some websites or to log in to games, particularly ones that require authentication. This leads me to believe that the piggyback has some interference on secure sites when a login is involved
I have the Verizon router with all of its wifi radios turned off. Of course a simple solution might be to just flip the Archer into access point mode, but then I'd lose my mesh. I'm looking for help configuring the two so they don't have a conflict
Thanks in advance for your time
