TooDifficult Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 I’m connecting an XR1000 to another netgear router. At first I tried using router lan to XR1000 wan port and that didnt work. I couldn’t access dumaos at all even though the XR1000 was working fine using the nighthawk app. Then I did lan to lan connection and I can access dumaos but my xr1000 has no router capabilities nothing can connect to it. I can get into dumaOS but I cant do anything because my macbook won’t connect via wifi to my XR1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 @TooDifficultSo what exactly are you trying to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooDifficult Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 Basically just trying to connect my PS5 to it and use geofiltering for call of duty. I actually have my PS5 connected through ethernet cable and it works fine. The only thing thats not working is dumaos so I cant actually use the geofilter or anything. If I just use the router with the nighthawk app it works fine. Routerlogin.net or 192.168.1.1 doesn’t work. It just doesn’t load the website at all.

TooDifficult Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 I’m wondering should I connect the XR1000 via its wan port or lan port? Should I use it in AP mode or not? Really just want the geofiltering feature… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 @TooDifficultIs the IP for your other router similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikestro1 Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 So, on your first router go into LAN settings and give the xr1000 an IP address (example) 192.168.1.20. Then you can use 192.168.1.20 on the xr1000 to log into net duma. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooDifficult Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 Alright thank you, I actually connected it Lan to Wan, didnt change the IP or anything but somehow it worked this time. No clue why it worked. If it stops working tomorrow though I’ll try giving the XR1000 its own IP mikestro1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it stops working tomorrow though I’ll try giving the XR1000 its own IP The IPs were very likely conflicting as they're both Netgear the default IP is 192.168.1.1 and when it detects a conflict (usually during setup) it will change itself to 10.0.0.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooDifficult Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 Gotcha. For what its worth on the nighthawk app it still shows internal IP as 192.168.1.1 for the XR1000 Either way everything was actually working fine, including the geofilter. Was getting connected to nearby servers, games seemed easier etc. Good experience so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
