Hello guys
Looking for a bit of advice on my home setup. I have a Netgear DGN1000 wireless modem router connected to my main phone line for the best broadband speed and I have all of my wireless devices connected to it. I also have a wired connection going from it to a PowerLine which provides a wired connection upstairs which goes into a 16 port TP-Link gigabyte switch. So the problem I am facing is the wireless devices can't see any devices on the upstairs wired connections.
I am guessing the wireless devices can't see the wired devices as the DGN1000 has no idea of the IPs being used by the switch?
I tried using an old router as the modem downstairs and using the DGN1000 upstairs solely as a router but I couldn't get it to pass through the internet connection.
I don't need 16 ports upstairs, it was just an un-required device at work so I was given it.
Looking for advice on the most cost effective way of making this work?
Thanks
