xazbrat wroteAVOlio wroteI did physically connect the Wan port of the Tenda router to one of the lan ports on Thomson.
I tried DHCP mode on the Tenda, didn't work. Tried static ip didn't work, tries pppoe also, and didn't work (maybe my credentials are wrong idk).
Only when my pc was connected by lan to Tenda router I had Internet connection, the WiFi network on it had no Internet.
Wifi on Thomson has Internet as always.
Also yes, when u connected the Tenda by lan to the Thomson, they gateway of the Tenda changed to 192.168.2.xx instead of 192.168.1.xx automatically but still didn't work.
Any guides?
I have a similar setup, but I use the Tenda router to extend the connection to the rest of the house. A couple of things to try: first the obvious, make sure that the wireless is enabled on your router. There is a checkbox on the wireless tab to enable it. Secondly, reset the modem to its default settings and see if it works then. Do not use a PPPOE or any other credentials and use it initially as a WAP instead of bridge mode.
All you want to do first is to get the wireless going and then start playing around with the other settings.
I've actually tried to set that up something similar before. I already had a TP-link TD-W8968 as the Wifi modem, and i decided to try the old Thomson TG585v7 provided originally by IDM as a range extender/access point.
So i connected a 15 m ethernet cable from the Lan1 port of the TP-link to the Lan1 port also of the Thomson. I set up the Thomson in Bridge mode,disabled DHCP, and set up the Wifi security. The usual IP to access the thomson interface is 192.168.1.254, so i added this as its static IP on the TP-link (its IP range is 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.254). After this set up, if i connect to the thomson Wifi, i can access its interface but there is no internet connectivity. Through the TP link wifi, i can acess its interface (192.168.1.1) as well as the thomson interface (192.168.1.254) and the internet connectivity is active. I figure that i still need a further step or two to enable internet connectivity through the Thomson Wifi as well, so that i can have it as a working second access point.
On a further note, when i tried to connect my internet receiver to the thomson through a lan cable (connected to Lan2 of the thomson), i lost internet connectivity also on the original TP-link wifi (No internet connecvtivity at all through the whole setup). Can anyone make any conclusions about the further steps to make the system work?
