I have a problem with an extra router turned extension hub. I'm using a Centurylink router that works fine and I reconfigured a second router to extend my network to a dead spot in my home.
If I only have one PC plugged in the first router and have the cat-5 cable to my second second router all in great, including the PC in the spare room, everything works.
But If I plug another PC (My wife's) in to the first router with with my PC, or two PC's in the first router and a PC in the second router, The connection is lost to the second PC.
The same thing happens if the second PC (My wife's) is plugged in the first router, with the second router cable PC also plugged in the first router, and all is working great, When I plug in my PC cable in to the first router the signal is lost again.
As long as Only one PC is plugged into the first router with the cable to the second router with that PC, everything works great.
How can I get two PC's to work in the first router and the second router cat-5 cable plugged in also?
The second router is a quest modem redone as a extension router.
Again, As long as Only one PC is plugged into the first router with the cable to the second router with that PC, everything works great.
