Hi there,
I (think I) want to have my cable modem/router manage my network addressing scheme. I assume this means I need my HAP to be an access point only. I found this advice on a forum for my ISP.
Log into the wireless router and disable its DHCP server.
Connect the wireless router to one of the cable modem/router’s LAN ports.
Do not use the wireless router’s Internet/WAN port. (It’s not connected to the Internet, it’s connected to the LAN.)
You now have one big happy LAN produced by the Comcast modem/router. You may need to reboot devices connected to the wireless router to get them to request new IP addresses from the modem/router.
The docs seem to only describe DHCP Client. I hate doing anything “from the hip”
Is this a common thing to do?
Will I simply click the DHCP server button and set it to “off” or some such?
Thanks for any help or guidance!
