I have a Netgear router DG834G (ip address 192.168.0.1) which works perfectly. I want to use an old Edimax router as an access point only (- i.e.DHCP disabled) ..connecting a spare Netgear router lan socket to an Edimax lan socket via 200 mbps Homeplugs/lan cables.
I have reset the Edimax to default. It's ip adress is 192.168.2.1.
I have connected the Edimax direct to a laptop's LAN port. I can change the DHCP setting (ie to "disable").. the SSID, the encryption type & password..etc etc. and it all saves..HOWEVER...
..what I cannot do is to alter the IP address in the LAN section of the Edimax interface to 192.168.0.2 (or similar)? I alter the numbers but when the save button is pressed the "egg-timer" icon comes on and stays on. It will not accept the change in ip address.
Anyone got an idea why not.
I have successfully set up a Netgear DG834G and a Technicolor 582 router as access points..so cannot fathom out why the Ediamx won't respond?!
