Upgraded to AX6000, but my PoE cameras won't connecct
2021-02-11 21:55:01
Model: Archer AX6000  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20200714 rel 18254

I replaced my Apple Extreme router with the AX6000.  All devices connected except cameras which I have on a PoE switch, and two on Power line adapters. I see that all my devices (over 30) are on the routers subnet 192.168.0.1, but I know at least two of the cameras are on 192.168.1.xxx.  Should I change the router's IP? and if so how do I do that?

@Richinwalla 

You can either change the IP of the router or change the IP of the cameras. I am not sure which would be easier with respect to your network.

 

As far as the router, log into it and go to Advanced > Network > LAN > Change the IP there to 192.168.1.1

 

What will happen is when the router reboots it will start giving out IP addresses that start with 192.168.1.x automatically.

 

I'm not sure if the router is connecting to another router, but if the WAN IP of the AX6000 is already something similar to 192.168.1.x then just change the IP on the cameras in that case to reflect 192.168.0.x

@Tony Hi, I ended up changing the IP of the router.  Much easier than trying to change 5 cameras. My Apple Extreme was giving out IP addresses in the 10.0.1.xx range so I changed AX6000 to the same. Thanks.
