Hi!

 

Link to original post: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/187442

 

I'm having issues getting my VR400 and P7 to work in a bridged config. I want to have VR400 only taking in the VDSL connection, and P7 to make the wireless network. Is this possible in any way, and if yes, could you guide me to the right direction?

set up your P7 in access point mode and plug your P7 into a spare LAN port in the VR400. Turn off the WiFi radios on your VR400.

Hello, it is okay. 

 

First, to make the Archer VR400 work in bridge mode, you only need to hard reset it, then it will synchronize the DSL connection only, no other functions available.

 

Second, please connect Deco P7 to the Archer VR400 and set it up via the Deco app as the main router, then it will work.

 

May it help.
