One perfect video, especially for the workaround without operation mode 👌
Thank you so much for the explanation of the 2 methods.
Your video saved so much of my time and effort. Thank you so much for explaining everything properly.
Perfect video. no nonsense. straight to the point. Subscribed. worked like a charm. I had the operation mode in access point tplink, and once i set that, everything worked automatically after that.

bro how to make the range extender (repeater) without lan cable wirelessly ?
this is awesome thank you, I was confused when TP link said we can just connect the main router to second router through WAN , I thought method 2 was the only way. Now i know they have method 1 came in handy for some router
Thank you so much for this video... Direct to the point and was really helpful in setting up my extended wireless in 1st floor..
Superb explanation.. After so much of void videos finally got one meaningful
Very helpful. Thanks 🙏
Thank you. Worked like a charm

Thanks. Really work on mine without operation mode.😊
Really thanx Boss....its working
is usb of router archer a7 can be accessible remotely in AP mode as earlier accessible in main router mode?
perfect, thanks for helping
It works for me.. thanks bro
Great video.
Many thanks to you , bro
Essalam Alaykoum, Hello Bro, thank you very much for all these details, please tell me, could we use the same parameters to configure the Archer VR300 and VR600 routers? THANKS
AP wifi is working perfectly in laptops, but not working in phone any reason why?
Can we use different company routers? Example I have an D Link and TP Link... Will it work in that case..
I have a question… I don’t know much about extenders.. if I connect my router to the extender through Ethernet, can I use the “Ethernet internet” to create a new WiFi through the extender, while my routers wireless WiFi is turned off? I’ll appreciate every answer 🙏🏻
Dude, which router did you turn into access point? the main router or the other one or both? I'm talking about in-built AP mode
easyyy-peassyyyy🎉 make sure the power is on for every electronic box power has to connect to 😊
For those who are struggling, make sure you “reboot” after performing those steps.
Thank you very mouch!
Thank you ❤
Thank you for the video. How do I setup router with same SSID as main router?
My main router is downstairs and I am trying to use my tplink router as an extender. How do I got about this if I can't connect both routers with an internet cable
Thanks for this video, i've been looking for a solution for my home network. Coz my wifi is not reaching my room but there's a ethernet cable on the wall that i can use for access point. Question is if i connect my Pc to the access point through Lan cable, can i still use the wifi for my mobile phones and tablets? Thanks for the response.
Okey this might be a stupid question but if i connect the tp link router to a router with 2.4GHz does the 5GHz work on the tp link or is it not faster than the router its linhed to??
Any other option without lan cable?
The second option, point accès, is it set up with an RJ45 cable or without a cable
With the second method will I be able to connect wirelessly
Very nice
hello! I bought tp link td w 9970 v4 ,i want to do it access poin, its possible that?
I love indian from pgilippines so good at technology
Thank you
Thanks bro🙏👍
Wowww... Superb anna... Picha. Clarity ichav
Does this router have a mac clone feature ?
after rebooting in the second option, I cant access the router again with the new IP address or the previous one, it simply says nothing was found
Sir konse port mai ethernet cable dalna hai wan mai ya LAN mai
what if the ip address of the tplink access point router is by default different from main router, do we still need to change ip of access point router?
can we enable guest network with this mode?
Can the access point be connected to the modem wirelessly?
This work for me bro Using TP Link AX55 now connected to AP mode
For first time I found that the Router Mode was working when connecting to the main router. But later months it's had issues like dropping connection, terribly slowing down internet speed that unable to run the speed test etc. Only after changing to Access Point mode this problem was resolved. However, I didn't have have dynamic IP anymore when connecting to the internet in Access Point mode. In such mode only assigned static IP provided by the main router (inspite of DHCP enabled in this router). DHCP setting also greyed out in TP-link. Is there a means to have dynamic IP to all the devices connected to TP-link ? or any possibility to change back to Router Mode again ?

I have madearcher a6 5ghz wds bridge with airtel xstreme fiber router.I think it is CG nated but ip is in 122. range.I have one synology nas to lan network.Not able to port forward or DMZ is not working i think.Can you help me out pls❤
1 problem on your connection though, you not supposed to connect the cable to the WAN port on the AP. Must be the LAN port
what if I dont want to connect ETH from main to Extender, and I just want to range extend via WDS bridging?
How do I keep one single WiFi name or connection with multiple access points. Here it is having separate WiFi name to connect either using access point or router mode.
Can you use this as a satellite router?
bro, the default security of the router is incorrect, i cant connect to it, i'd try to reset it, but still cant get into it, do you know the solution? thanks in advance!
I tried. the AP router connected with internet. but the internet access is limited. i can watch youtube. but i could not use internet banking, ebay. and some web could not connected. why this happened?

You should try to read up and get a better understanding of Wi-Fi and connections. I don't mean that in a bad way I just mean it's rather confusing unless you have a little more knowledge. however it can all easily be found online. in order to extend or boost the Wi-Fi you have to have Wi-Fi. so if you were talking about extending it with a router you need an ethernet cable or you need to get one with a Poe switch so you don't have to plug it in but you're still going to need the ethernet cord. otherwise you're talking about a range extender or something that just plugs in. not a router. look into Wi-Fi range extenders and mesh systems
After i get kicked from admin menu i cant get back after i reload. But the internet is online. Any info?
Please make a new video as all the options have been changed in the new format and I am unable to find these options now

Router mode interrupts with you main router. It's advisable to use it as access point mode ir range extender because it won't interrupt with the main modem or router.

How can I make my main router focus only on (prioritize) my PC, and the router that works as an access point (for my guests) doesn't interfere with the performance of the main router? Because I notice every time many people use the internet, the connected devices cause my internet to experience packet loss and it bothers me a bit.

why do you use wan port on the first scenario but lan port on the second?
@thinkdeeperdeeper3147

The WAN port in a router is used to connect the router to the internet or a modem. It is used to receive data from the internet and distribute it to the devices connected to the router. On the other hand, LAN ports are used to connect devices within a local network. They are used to transfer data between devices connected to the router. In the Access Point mode, the WAN port is not used. Instead, the router is connected to the internet via a LAN port. This is because the router is not responsible for routing traffic in this mode. It is only responsible for providing wireless access to devices connected to it. In the LAN settings, the WAN port is also not used. Instead, the router is connected to the internet via a modem. The modem is connected to the WAN port of the router. The LAN ports are used to connect devices within the local network

@@joegame4576the video is not accurate when making the router an access point (AP) connect the two routers lan to lan not lan to wan. So the Ethernet cable would be connected to main router lan port and to second routers lan port (not the second routers wan port). Hope this clears ur doubt.

TP-Link provides "Operation Mode" menu and enables the WAN port to work similar to LAN-LAN in "AP mode" and still provide 4 LAN ports to be used. In regular router which doesn't have that menu, you have to use the second method because WAN port is still WAN port and you need LAN port to connect both routers so that leaves you 3 LAN ports to use.
fun fact, you don't need to select it as access point. switch to wifi mesh will greatly improve wifi coverage without losing speed or latency.
In the second option, you disabled changed Lan address to 192.168.0.2 and disabled DHCP server. Conected via lan port to lan port to main router rather lan port to wan port. Will wifi work with this config? If yes then ip address will be issued by the main router DHCP.... right?

Yes, devices can be connected to the WiFi of the secondary router even when there is no wire in the WAN port of the secondary router. In this setup, the secondary router is connected to the main router via a LAN port. The WAN port of the secondary router is not used. When the secondary router is connected to the main router via a LAN port, it acts as an access point. The access point provides wireless access to devices connected to it. The devices connected to the secondary router will be able to communicate with devices connected to the main router, as long as they are on the same network. It’s important to note that the secondary router should be configured to operate in Access Point mode. This mode disables the router functionality of the secondary router and allows it to function as an access point. You can configure the secondary router to operate in Access Point mode by disabling DHCP and NAT
