Hi guys!
I hope you're having a great time.
I'm having difficulties setting up my home network. I'd say I'm usually okay with computers, but networking has always been my weakness, so I need your help!
Here's my new appartment and my setup:
My problem is: the modem is in the restroom, so the wireless signal is very weak in the bedrooms. My main computer is in my bedroom, so I also want a wired internet connection there.
I used an old Linksys router with DD WRT (router2) in my bedroom, connected to the main router (router 1) with a powerline adapter. I've followed this basic guide to connect the router LAN to WAN.
Unfortunately, now everything connected to the second router (wired or wireless) can't access the main router nor the Internet. What do I do wrong? Is this the correct way to do what I want to do?
Here are my settings for the main router:
Here are my settings for the second router:
Any help would be really appreciated. Many thanks in advance!
