If the router option is almost but not close enough, you can either upgrade the firmware on the router so that it has firewall functionality or look at putting in some type of firewall so that you can not only control the system(s) allowed to pass through the connection but what ports are to be used between the connected systems. You can setup the access control lists on the router so that only one workstation can reach the host(s) that you need to be able to connect to. By using a router with multiple network interfaces, you can have just one network card in the workstation and let the router do what it does best, handle the routing between the networks. If you think you might ever want to connect more than just one computer to both networks, there is another option. From the left side of the window, select Network List. Go to Cortana on the taskbar and type secpol.msc. In this method, we will set the unidentified network’s location to Private or Public. After doing this, check that you have a default route to handle all remaining traffic over the primary network card. Unidentified Network to Private or Public. You might want to try putting some static routes for specific hosts or possibly the subnet you are trying to reach with the second network card that specifically point to the second network card.

You may need to do some tweaking with the routes on your computer. When I tried to do something like this in the past, I occasionally ran into some routing problems with XP.

If the IP subnets on each network are different, one option is to install a second network card. If this is the case, would changing the RE650 IP address even worth trying? (I haven't tried it yet) I'm afraid I will lose my only 5Ghz band extender connection.First, find the IP addressing scheme used on both networks. Right now, I have the Lease time set to Forever so I can always find the RE650 admin tool page. I tried changing the lease time to IPV4 and IPV6 to 2 minutes to force the router to reassign IP addresses but it doesn't work. I don't have the ability to force the Xfinity router to renew and reassign the DHCP IP address. The same IP address gets used on the router. Lastly, as I stated before my Xfinity Router does not reassign IP addresses.

AND mac filtering is turned off on both Bands.Īlso when setting the DNS server, I see this from my phone:ĭo I have to input those or only IPV4 digits 75.75.75.75 If you open your Network and Sharing Center and see the image below and the screen says Unidentified Network and No Internet Access and you cannot connect to the Internet these steps are meant for you to try. Yes, DHCP is set to automatic on the Xfinity router. I tried changing the IP lease time to 2 minutes to force it to change IP address but my Xfinity router doesn't reassign a new IP address) When I connect to the 2.4Ghz extender SSID, it does connect but says no internet.Īll the devices that previously connected to the 2.4 Extender in the past fails to gain internet, BUT if I try a New device that never has joined the 2.4Ghz Extender SSID, I am able to connect successfully to internet.Ĭan you explain why I would have to set the IP address of the Extender manually to fix this problem?Īlso do I have to manually change the IP address of the RE650 or can I keep it with the same IP address? (I have factory reset the RE650 many times and my Xfinity Arris TG1682G Wireless Router still keeps my 10.0.0.XXX IP address. I am able to connect on 5Ghz band of the Extender. Someone unplugged my RE650 Wifi Extender and then suddenly I wasn't able to connect to 2.4Ghz band on the Extender. I have the exactly the same problem as the original poster. I hope you are still there at TP Link Support.
