So I recently moved to a new home and switched from a 100% wireless network to a mix. Specifically, all the computers are wired up to a switch, while all the mobile devices/tablets are wireless.
My intended setup is this: ISP -> Modem -> Switch -> Router (Asus RT-N66u)
However, even though the wifi network is visible regardless of where the router is plugged in, mobile devices can only connect to the wifi when the router is connected directly to the modem.
I tried to factory reset my router but it doesn't appear to have worked since it still remembers the wifi network I set up. I am currently typing this question from my main desktop which is wired up to the switch and working perfectly.
Thanks.
