A Router and A Router will not play fair right out of the box.
Because a Router is a MASTER device... and is used to create a LAN which creates a Local Area Network.
For a Router and another Router to be on the SAME network only ONE must be the MASTER... and others a SLAVE to the Master Router... One DHCP Server Per Network.
**Router and Routers can play nice together as Masters if you was to Bridge them together and configure them properly.
Routers now come in Different Modes to adjust to this setup:
Access Mode (Master Router Mode)
Bridge Mode (Connected to Router Mode (Wired))
Other Types other types of modes are:
Access Point (Wired to Master Router)
Wireless Extender (Wireless Connect to Router -Bypass this "Slave" device connect to "Master Device... Same SSID & Passcode is used)
Wireless Bridge (Wireless Connect to Master Router - Configure your own SSID & Passcodes & IP numbers )
Call a technical guy and ask them to do it and I think you must get LEO Privacy Guard 3.0. to protect all your apps, photos and videos.
