WE826-T2 unable to connect through Asus RT-AC68U

Post by Heifer624 »

First post here... :?

ZBT WE826-T2 running latest Rooter firmware 03/01/2020 and I'm unable to connect internet through Asus RT-AC68U running latest Asuswrt-Merlin 08/14/2020 firmware.

Both WE826-T2 working fine stand alone with computer connected as does the RT-AC68U with another internet source connected.

Read on forum how to set up a DMZ on the WE826-T2 but still no luck.

Can access the WE826-T2 when connected to the RT-AC68U but no internet is coming through.

Any suggestions please. Thanks!

Both have different IP addresses in different subnet ranges? IE: 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.1

Your LAN cable runs from the yellow LAN ports of the WE826 to the WAN port of the Asus? And in the ASUS you defined the IP address of the WAN port to be in the same subnet as the WE826?

It sounds backwards, but try and reverse that. WAN on the WE826 and LAN on the Asus.

I'll have to sit down and mock one up.
