I'd like to turn my AC1350 Archer C60 into an access point, but I can't see how to do it.

 

Any help much appreciated.

 

Thank you.

If there is no operation mode option, you can configure the Archer C60 as an access point manually. 

 

Please refer to the instruction below: https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/1199/

 

Or you can watch the setup video, it contains the configuration method when there is no operation mode available.

May it  help and have a good day.

Hi Samuel,

 

Thanks for the tip.

 

However this is what I also saw on a Youtube clip, but my system doesn't have 'Operation Mode' under Advanced Settings.

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Andrew

Hello Andrew. So may I suggest you to try the "quick and dirty old fashion" ? It is not guaranteed but could eventually work : unplug the ethernet cable from the WAN port and put it in one of the LAN ports of the C60. Then, power off the C60 and power it ON again. It could now act as an AP (it was the way we did with old TP-Link routers). I hope it will work for you. Just remember that you will have to access the C60 by its new IP address the main router will provide it.
