Obie_1 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Hello, Can someone provide a quick tutorial on how to go about hooking up my xr700 after my netduma r2. I would like to utilize my R2 just for gaming with nothing else on it and my xr700 just for wifi. I would love to use the R2 only but it’s wifi capabilities are not as strong as the xr700. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 21, 2022 Hey, welcome to the forum! Super simple to do, connect the XR700 internet/WAN port to one of the R2 LAN ports. Then access the XR700, go to Settings and change the router mode to AP mode. Then any devices to the 700 WiFi will appear as though they are directly connected to the R2 and can be Geo-Filtered etc if required.

Obie_1 Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Thank you guys. I was having issues before so I basically started over again. Reset everything to factory defaults made it much more smoother. Appreciate you guys. Netduma Fraser and Newfie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
