Archer C2600 not using WAN port
Model :
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I got an Archer C2600 to replace an Asus model.
I don’t want to use it as a router, just as an access point. I was able to configure the Asus for this before, so I got 5 Gigabit ports instead of 4.
However I don’t see how to do this with the Acher C2600.
I hope it is possible, otherwise I need to return it and keep using the Asus, even if the WiFi performance is lower.
I’ve updated it to the latest firmware version, and I don’t see any option for disabling the NAT so I can use all the 5 Gigabit ports in bridge mode altogether with the WiFi links.
If I use only the 4 ports, as I don’t need to use the DHCP (because I’ve it already in another TP-Link which is the real router for my network), there is not way to tell the C2600 that there is a default router and the DNS settings so the C2600 is able to use NTP servers, do firmware upgrades, etc.
Please, let me know.
