Hi All!

 

My primary router is also my cable modem.  IP 192.168.1.

 

AX73 is 192.168.1.200

 

DHCP is ON in primary, OFF in AX73.

 

All devices connect no problem and can use the Internet.

 

In the AX73 setup screen, I'm unable to use some features because the WAN port is physcially empty.  The connections are all happening in the LAN ports.

 

Am I supposed to do something extra so that the Archer AX73 knows that WAN port is supposed to be empty, and there is indeed an internet connection readily available?

I should add that I read an "access point" might overcome this, but my understanding is access points are wireless only when my routers are cabled to the brim!
