Recently switched from DSL to xfinity. I hated the new wireless portion of my new SMC modem/router so had it put onto bridge mode. I purchased a Linksys EA6200 to use as my router. This works great in most of my house. Since I have my old actiontec Q1000 DSL modem/router I was trying to set this up as a wireless AP. I have disabled DHCP, given it a static IP address, set the SSID to the same as my Linksys and put it into transparent bridge mode. Ran a cable from LAN port on Linksys to LAN port on Q1000. I see two wireless systems witht the same SSID but can only get internet when connecting to the Linksys.
If set up correctly should I only see the SSID once? What setting am I missing to get the Q1000 to work as the AP? Thanks for your help.
