Cascade 2 EA2700 routers, what settings

I have two EA2700 routers that I'm cascading.  I have the main router with DHCP on and the second router with DHCP off.  The second router is connected to the main router via the LAN port.  I seem to be getting very poor speed and even connectivity errors when devices are connected to the second router wirelessly.  What other settings need to be changed on the second router?  I haven't changed anything on it other than setting DHCP off.  Also, both main and secondary router have the same wireless network name but many of my devices seem to be connected to the second one since it's closer.
Any help or suggestions?  As of now, my wireless connection is basically useless.

Try to upgrade the router’s firmware and then reset the router afterwards. This would eradicate any bugs from the router. You can actually change the router’s wireless settings or better yet, consider using different SSIDs for each router. Use a wifi analyzer tool like http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/ to select a non-overlapping channel to your router. You can also relocate the router to a more central and elevated location for a better signal coverage. Another option is to set the 2nd router to bridge.

  • Connecting two EA2700 routers (wireless) and enable LAN connection on both

    Hi all,
    I have just bought two EA2700 routers, and I simply cannot perform the setup.
    I have the first router connected to the modem, and need the secon router to connect to the first through wireless to extend the range. Secondly, I want to enable LAN connection from the second router to e.g. a computer, PS4 etc.
    After having spend a lot of time on searching for at guide, I have given up... I really hope, that you are able to help me on this matter.
    Thanks a lot in advance..

    Hello Acsadac. Are you setting up the 2nd EA2700 to act as a range extender (wirelessly connected to the 1st EA2700)? If you are, then it's not possible. You can do one of two things, though.
    1. LAN to LAN. Configure the 2nd EA2700 as a switch. This will act akin to a range extender (for both wired and wireless connections) but you'll be using a long ethernet cable.
    2. LAN to WAN. Configure it as a secondary router. This way, you have 2 separate wireless networks in one connection. Again, you will need a long ethernet cable for this kind of setup.
    Here's a link on how to configure the 2 EA2700s:

    Hello SalsburgD
    The first thing I would check is to make sure that the router is using the recommended settings to get online. Another troubleshooting step is to create a new Network Location and then join your network to see if that changes things.

    There have been a lot of recent reports of difficulties sharing to DVD, but haven't been hearing about unreadable disks. Posibly there was an encoding error. Or it could have been bad media (blank disk).
    Does it play in your Mac?
    What brand of disks are you using?

    Since, POP accounts do not synchronize folders, the first step is to make sure your account connection is set up to use IMAP on all devices. Assuming that is an option with your account.

  • Making the move to 16:9, but totally confused about what settings to use!

    Hi, It seems to me that since all new TV's being sold are wide-screen, it is time for me to stop making videos in 4:3. But I am completely stumped by the procedure to work in 16:9. I have shot my footage in standard definition, 16:9. The final product will be a DVD created in DVD Studio Pro. I would like the picture to fill a widescreen TV, and.... when played on a 4:3 screen, I would like it to fill the width of the screen and be letterboxed on top and bottom.
    I think that I am correct to capture this footage into Final Cut Express, using Easy Setup, and choosing 'Anamorphic'. At least that gives me a 16:9 screen in FCE.
    But can someone tell me what settings to use in DVDSP when I when I import that video? I tried to import Anamorphic video into DVDSP, and went to Preferences, and chose 16:9 Letterbox. I got a wide screen, but my footage came in as a squished 4:3 image. I'm totally at a loss, and would very much appreciate any help you can give.
    Thanks very much, Bob

    Yes, Anamorphic is the Easy Setup you'd want to use in FCE.
    When I say it's distorted, that means anamorphic is recorded to tape squished (much like how it imports into DVDSP for you) and that the format demands being unsqueezed during playback. Sorry, if I scared you.
    The encoding settings are also available in DVDSP's Preferences under the Encoding tab.
    Also - and this is the single most important element of this workflow - in addition to setting the default Display Mode to 16:9 Letterbox, be sure to confirm that this is not overridden (for whatever reason) after you've placed your clips onto a track. So check the Inspector and make sure Display mode is correct. (It's been known to happen once in a blue moon and, if not readjusted, will mean that your DVD will not display correctly on any proper setup)

  • I need to know what settings to use .... NEED HELP FAST!!

    I'm using FC to make my documentary for state history day. I think my trouble is the settings before I transfer the video using Quicktime Conversion. I honestly don't have any idea what to change my settings to!! Right now, after i burn it my video messes up. It makes bar like shapes when the video comes up, the video is visible but it doesn't look very professional. The video clips are clear when I play it on my computer(in the program FC) but after I move it it does the pixely thing. I am burning my project to a DVD and it will just be playing on a regular TV screen. If anyone can help me I would GREATLY appreciate it!!!!!! Thanks
