I have a RTn66u router in my home with a SSID that has access to the entire network and a guest SSID that accesses only the internet. The internet is accessed through a satelllite modem.
I have a cat 6 wire running to barn from the home RTn66u router. I want to configure an old rt-56nu router in the barn to provide wireless access to barn. The Rt-56u router can be set up as an access point or router. If I set it as an access point, I have to provide it with a new SSID - when I do this, it does not provide access to the internet. Setting it as a router seems like the right answer, with the dhcp turned off and a static ip but I cannot get it to work.
Any help would be appreciated.
