What IP for LAN when TL-WDR4300 is secondary router ?

Region : Argentina

Model : TL-WDR4300

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version :

ISP : fullrate.dk


My ISP has provided me a router: Zyxel P-2601HN which has an ideal WLAN transfer rate of 150 mbps. I live in a concrete 2 story house so signals are weak at best on the other floor - therefore, I Have bought the TL-WDR4300 as an extension for the latter floor. I have connected the routers from LAN to LAN and the Zyxel has 192.168.1.1 on LAN and the TL-WDR4300 had 192.168.0.1 as out set. I have changed this to 192.168.1.2 and all the setup (disabled DHCP + other) seems to work alright. BUT i can not log into the TL-WDR4300 !! Not with http://192.168.1.2 and not with http://tplinklogin.net. Does anyone here have an ideer what I can do to get into the setup of TL-WDR4300. I know I can alays backup the setting and reset the router and load the setting again, make alterations, saving .....but it kind of drastic !!

Can the two radios SSID names (2,4 MHz and 5 MHz) be the same name as the SSID name on the Zyxel P-2601HN ? What are the implications ?

I have more questions but not for now !!

Thanks

Lars

it's not mhz it's ghz .......
on the dual band router here you can create diffrent ssid for each band
if you could try....
what type are you using? [like Bridge,Access Point] and others
if you were using bridge you could do it as you want but if router mode please set ips like
192.168.2.1 < For Router
And
192.168.2.10 - 200 for ip clients
enable dhcp for easier way

Hi Nathan Adhitya,

Thanks

m's an' g's ....hmmm....what a world we live in !!

I an not sure what you mean. My setup for the routers are...

On the primary Zyxel router LAN IP is 192.168.1.1
DHCP is active / mac filtering is active (includes the Mac address of the TP-Link router)
I have connected the two routers from LAN to LAN ports.
On the TPlink router LAN is 192.168.01 as default and I have changed/saved it to 192.168.1.2 so it wil be in the range of the Zyxel router. DHCP is disabled in the tplink router.
ssid for both the 2,4 GHz and 5 GHZ is the same name as the wireless ssid in the Zyxel. Both arials are set to be active and channel is 'Auto' on both. Security are identical setup on both routers and both arials in the tptink router. I don't get any error messages.

I suppose you can call this setup 'bridged'.

I still can't login to the tplink router with http://192.168.1.2

HELP !!!!

There is even a difference in capitals...it should be GHz ;)

Configure Wireless settings exactly the same as your Zyxel, except for the (fixed!) channels: use 1,6 or 1,11 or 6, 11
The last thing will give you roaming which is very cool!

I'm not syure if there is a bridge option in the TP-Link...

Or you sure that the routers are connected (can they ping one another?).
