Secondary Router Configuration for WIFI extender

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/secondary-router-configuration-for-wifi-extender.210734/

My main router IP address is 192.168.100.1. And secondary router address is 192.168.1.1. what should be the IP address of the secondary router so that it can be configured as a wifi extender. I have changed it to 192.168.1.2 but it didn't work. Any suggestions.

@whitestar_999 @omega44-xt @RumbaMon19 please help here.

@stellar meanwhile could you provide more details like which exact models you are using so that members can suggest better?

Main Router is Huwaei HG 8245H and secondary router (Extender ) is Digicom DG-ZA204M.

In some WiFi routers, there's an inbuilt extender mode. So, depends a lot on model of primary & secondary router. Apparently TP Link ones don't have it.

I recently bought 2 of these for my parent's house at 3k each:

It will only work if you have wds option in wifi settings in secondary router which I seriously doubt.
