Hope someone can help me sort this. (if not in the correct forum or if cross posting would be helpful, hopefully someone can assist with that too)
I'm working on attaching my mifi2 to a TPlink (TL-WA801ND) to feed internet to my netgear r7000 router and established home network.
My first attempt actually worked, but the netgear automatically created an entirely new IP schema for itself and it killed my IP security cameras which are static IP.
I was able to get revert everything back to original configuration (cable modem connected to netgear r7000) and got everything working again, but I can't figure out what settings to use to try and make this work.
I'm obviously not an expert, so thanks for your help!
Here is what I tried to do -
mifi2 - IP 192.168.1.100, subnet mask 255.255.255.0
DHCP - IP 192.168.1.150-192.168.1.250
TPlink - set to bridge mode (bridge with AP)
static IP 192.168.1.151, subnet mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.100 (mifi2's ip address)
DHCP enabled (192.168.1.251-192.168.1.253)
Netgear -
internet set to not requiring login
router picked up 192.168.1.251 from TPlink - but it set it's own IP address and therefore it's DHCP range to 10.0.0.XXX and that kills my IP cameras.
I need the DHCP to issue between 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.99
when I try to set the router to be a valid unused IP address (192.168.1.57) it tells me the IP address conflicts with the Subnet Mask.
Hopefully someone can help me with this - I feel like I'm so close, but obviously this a bit over my head. thanks in advance!
