As in the title, Ive managed to do this with an old plusnet router converted to an access point, reason being to be able to have devices connect to 1 particular disc with no risk of connecting to another (weaker) disc. This worked well for a long time, but recently I started getting drop out issues with other stuff on the WholeHome network. I think i was getting Null and duplicate IP's sometimes from it. I have just changed to a similarly altered HH6, and as yet waiting to see how that works. Both ISP routers were set up as access points with info off here.
But in the process I tried to use a new TP Link TL-WR940N router / access point / repeater, in access point mode. While this worked initially it would then not let anything connect a bit later, even after a restart, basically telling me there was an IP issue
So im trying to take the internet from a slave disc, and give it a wifi address thats different from the Mesh. Is there something i'm doing right (to a point) with the ISP routers, but wrong with the TP Link, or is connecting an ethernet cabled access point to a slave disc not really destined to work 100% correctly
TIA
