I’m trying to setup wifi for my parents guest house behind their home it’s going to be a separate wifi connection I had understood this would be possible by connecting a second router to the main one through Ethernet and setting it up in AP mode. I purchased a NightHawk AX6 plugged the Ethernet into the yellow internet port and it had no internet so I logged into the setup menu and I put it into AP mode still no internet and now I can’t log back into the admin panel at all through the 192.168.1.1 address have I gravely messed this up looking for advice.

    I haven’t done it before but I would have to imagine when you changed it to AP mode it changed the devices IP address to avoid conflict with the main router.

    Try going and logging into your main router in the house and look at the attached devices. See what the new IP address is.

    I’m talking out of my ass right now though
