Model: Archer C80  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: LATEST

Hello ! I have the Archer router connected to the ISP's router. Everything working following this steps:
 

Router 1

Set up this router as normal. In the wireless security settings of the router, disable Automatic Channel selection and manually set the channel to channel 3.

Router 2

In most cases, this router must be wired to the original router. Consider a wireless media bridge or by running a single network cable in this case to the other location.

  • Disable the DHCP server on this router to prevent IP conflicts or network configuration issues allowing only Router 1 to manage the network.
  • Manually set the IP Address of this router to 1 number higher than the existing main router, for example if your router IP is 192.168.1.1, set this router to 192.168.1.2. Plese make sure this address is out of the 1st router's allotment of addresses for DHCP distribution. If not, please make a DHCP reservation for this router's address in the router 1's DHCP table.
  • Set the Internet Gateway of router 2 to router 1's IP address.
  • Connect the two routers using a wired connection from any of port 1-4 in router 1 to any of port 1-4 in router 2. You can use a Wireless Media Bridge or Powerline Ethernet Kit to create a wired connection. DO NOT use router 2's WAN port.
  • In the wireless security settings of this router, disable Automatic Channel selection and manually set the channel to channel 8 - or any other channel not being used by the main router or any other router on this network (it is possible to set more than two routers for really large areas).
  • Set up wireless security to be identical in router 2 as it is in router 1.

 

I have no wireless connections setup on the ROUTER 1 (ISP) and all wireless connections on ARCHER. They seem to be working except for the guest one... it says no internet. All wired computers have access to internet, all non guest wireless connections have access to internet. 

Any ideas on how to fix this?


Thanks in advance !

Hello, my suggestion would be reconfiguring the C80 to work in AP mode like this (Case 1). Then check again if you can access the internet when connecting to the Guest Network.
