Hi everyone,
this is seems wild but I decided to give it a shot by asking this anyway.
I have 1 ADSL Modem+Router (with WIFI) = Lets call this A
and
1 LAN Router (no WIFI) = Lets call this B
what I want is the following:
Internet > A > B
(remember B is necessary here)
But Since B does not have wifi. I cant use it wirelessly. I have ordered another WIFI Router C for this purpose.
then I will simply do
Internet > A > B > C
but while C arrives, I am impatient.
Now i know for a fact that ADSL routers can be used as a switch, All you have to do is put internet input LAN wire on a LAN PORT, and turn off DHCP on it.
my weird question:
Can i make it such a way that I make A into bridge mode, do my PPPOE authentication in B . then using another LAN wire as output from B put it back into A on LAN PORT. and use it as a switch for B (because A has WIFI).
and use it ....
in other words . use A as a bridge mode for internet and use its wifi as a switch at the same time?
please note that i am a networking layman ( just can do simple things)
thank you for your time
