I'm having trouble adding an Asus RT-AC86U to my network.
I have the following setup;
1. Huawei - HG659 - Modem connected to VDSL (Spark NZ) and connected to Asus (via Ethernet port 1)
2. Asus - RT-AC86U - Connected to Modem (via WAN Port) predominately providing house wifi
----------------
Huawei - 192.168.1.1
Asus - 172.16.0.1
I can get to the internet via the Huawei router when it's set up as a standalone router (with PPPOE configured) and computer attached to it.
I want to attach the AC86U to the HG659 to provide Wifi to the home, I've connected the LAN port on the HG659 to the WAN port on the AC86U, the documentation says the setup the AC86U with the WAN connection Type as PPPOE and add the Spark username and password, I've done this but no luck.
Questions;
1. Do I set the HG659 to Bridged Mode or leave it as PPP (IP routing)
2. On the Asus do I have to set up a static route?
