Hi guys,
So I'm trying, and failing, to set up an old Belkin N+ router as a wireless access point on my BT Home Hub. So far it's gone like this:
BT Home Hub IP is 192.168.1.254
Set Home HUB DCHP range to 192.168.1.64 - 192.168.1.252
Reset Belkin Router to factory
Connect to Belkin over wifi via 192.168.2.1
Disable DCHP on Belkin
Set Belkin IP to 192.168.1.253
This is as far as I can get. As soon as i assign the new IP address I obviously drop connection to the Belkin router - I can no longer connect either through the BT wifi or through the Belkin wifi which is still showing. I'm sure it is something really simple but it has me stumped - do I need to connect through a wired connection and if so how do I apply the BT SSID?
The routers are connected via ethernet cable (Not WAN ports)
Thanks
