Use the Router as a WiFi Access Point Only
By default, the router functions as both a router and a WiFi access point (AP).You can set up the router to
function as an access point only and let it operate in the same local network as another router. When the
router functions as an access point only, many of its router-related features are disabled.
If you want to change the router’s function, use a wired connection to avoid being
disconnected when the new function takes effect.
Tip
To change the router to access point mode only:
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the yellow Internet port on the rear panel of the router to a LAN port
on the other router.
2. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
3. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
