i bought a refurb dual band router about 2 years ago and just found it after a move. i tried hooking 4 comps wired but it would only allow 3. can i hook my g linksys router into my e3000 linksys router and make it work that way?the other comps are g so they should work on the dual band, but instead of allowing 4 to be hardwired it only notices 3. can anyone give me some advice and let me know if i can hook another router into one of the wired ports and send it downline? thanks.
 
Solution
Yes. Just turn off DHCP on the downstream router and hook the routers together from a LAN port on the first one to a LAN port on the second one.
