hello, I have two di-604 routers. One is in my basement, and the other one is upstairs. The router in the basement has an ip of 192.168.0.1, and the one upstairs has an ip of 192.168.2.1. I was wondering if there is any way to convert the upstairs router into a switch, so it gives ips in the 192.168.0.xxx range? Is this possible?

Give it an IP address of 192.168.0.2, turn off DHCP and don't use the WAN port.
