Good afternoon, I am trying to connect 4 computers to the same workgroup but I am having some problems. I will try to explain. 1.- 2 of them are connected via ethernet to the router 2.- 2 of them are connected via ethernet to a TP Link Wifi extender which is also connected via ethernet to the router. However, I cannot get group 1 and group 2 computers to see each other. I think this might be because of different IP addresses (?) The router has an IP of 192.168.1.X When I go the TP admin panel I have the LAN - IP: 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.X is what shows up on the PC when running ipconfig) WAN - 192.168.1.X (which is dynamic) Could I get help on how to change them for them not to clash (I have tried but failed) or other possible alternatives? Kind Regards

3You need to set the WiFi extender to Bridge Mode, which will disable DHCP and NAT. – DavidPostill – 2016-05-30T20:22:55.823
How can I do it when both routers are connected via ethernet and not wifi? – Daniel Antón García – 2016-05-31T08:23:23.607
It doesn't make any difference how they are connected. It's a router setting. – DavidPostill – 2016-05-31T09:34:57.387
I can only find tutorials on how to do it via WDS (which is wifi). However the wifi reception of router 1 is not great so I wanted to bridge it via ethernet. – Daniel Antón García – 2016-05-31T16:05:47.393
