Using a Linksys WRT1900AC with Plusnet Hub One as a Modem

‎31-01-2017 12:36 PM

Hi Guys,

 

Quick question / idea I have. I am getting a Linksys WRT1900AC but they lack a modem.

I'm thinking if I disable SSID and wireless on the Hub One and connect the Linksys via the Ethernet WAN port and configure the SSID to come from the Linksys router that would work right?

No. You will need to connect the Linksys to an LAN port on the Hub One, also make sure they don't both have the same IP address range. No need to switch Wi-Fi off on the Hub One, but its optional.

thanks for the reply Mustrum, I was planning to disable the wireless on the hub one because the Linksys has better antenna and wireless performance
