Model: Archer AX1500  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version: 1.3.10

Recntly installed a Starlink Gen 3 system wired to aTP-Link 8 port POE switch to two TP-Link Archer AX1500 WiFi 6 routers and one direct connect to desktop computer via CAT6e cable. Must leave Gen3 router WiFi enabled for use locally. The two AX1500 routers will not connect to the network. There is a brief flash on the AX1500's and then goes out. No connection. What do we need to do in order for this confirguration to work?

  @Tommat,

It is likely because you are trying to get more than one router running on a network, which is not recommended without some very advanced configuration.

The easiest method since you are keeping the Starlink Router at the head of your network would be to just setup both of the Archers as Access Points - this will leave your starlink router in charge of things like routing and the DHCP server, while your Archers while in AP Mode will be in charge of providing the wireless network from your home. 

 

If you can, you can disable the wireless network on your starlink router, or configure your Archers to use the same wireless credentials so that devices can connect to either.
