Tweak a Router to use as an access point
I have a 12 years old daughter that has just received a tablet for xmas.
I bought a Archer C21 because I read that it has a parental control.
The Archer C21 has 3 operation modes (Router, access point and WiFi extender) but only has parental control as a Router.
I have a ISP that gave me a cable modem with a router and I can't configure it as a cable modem only.
So the internet source is a cable modem with a router and my daughter tablet will be connected to the Archer C21.
As the Archer C21 only has parental control as a Router, how to configure it as an access point with parental control?
If I connect the cable modem router (LAN) to the WAN of the Archer C21 I don't have internet.
If I connect the cable modem router (LAN) to one LAN of the Archer C21 I do have internet but how does it manager as both are trying to assign n iP address to each other?
It doesn't matter what OS is the client of the Access Point but, as requested mine is Win 11 22631.3007
