Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

looks like this has died off. The only way I can think of stopping gargoyle router getting a wifi ip from the main router is to turn off DHCP on the main and give all known devices static addresses, a pest when I add new devices.

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

I have setup b. lan to wan see previous posts. I have different ssid for each router and on different channels. I did change the ssid from the main router to the gargoyle router and made a new one for the main router. The setup seem to work fine, just this wifi ip on the main router being given to g...

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

Thanks for the replies. Maybe I should explain why I did this in the first place. I had not used the gargoyle router for about 2 years. I have been using the Telstra supplied gateway and now with NBN the telstra Frointier gateway. It was working fine. Then we got an enexpected visitor and he is just...

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

From reading the main router log it seems there is a DHCPv6 request which is not supported then the static ip is dropped for 10 mins. This is when the wifi hands out an ip to the gargoyle router. 10 mins later the static ip is available again and the cycle repeats until there are no more DHCPv6 requ...

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

An update. Looking at the main router logs I see this "not using configured address 192.168.0.2 because it was previously declined" after that a DHCP wifi address is assigned. It looks like the lan and wifi share the same mac address in the gargoyle and that they are bridged. Gargoyle is r...

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

Just an update. Reboot did not do anything other than change the wifi ip address that gargoyle has got from the main router.
So it looks like the gargoyle router is asking for an ip on wifi ??? I did not expect this.
Any ideas?

Re: Unexpected wifi connection from subnet

I might try the reboot. It could be as you say as when I set things up I was swapping ssid from the modem/router to the gargoyle. Just took be by surprise.
Thanks for your help.
