    Unfortunately iOS caching can only be done in MacOS. You can find Apple's official guide here: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/set-up-content-caching-on-mac-mchl3b6c3720/mac

    Yeah that is fine. When it is in router mode it sounds like a wifi issue, are you using 5Ghz? if so, make sure you are not using a DFS channel and that your wifi country is correct (to make sure the allowed bands are used and there is no interference to critical infrastructure). I took a look at an Archer C6 emulator and it looks like when I turn on AP Mode, the DHCP server is still on (this could be why the whole internet goes down). make sure that it is off and on the Network > LAN tab give your router an ip in the same range as your ISP router (use one of the last ones so that it doesn't interfere with another device. Something like 192.168.x.250) and set the Default Gateway to your ISP router's ip. The subnet mask should work at default (255.255.255.0) When you are in AP mode and the internet goes off try switching the cable from WAN to LAN (or the other way around).

    I would leave the ISP router as default (make sure it is not in bridge mode and the DHCP server is on) is and setup the second router (Router A) in AP mode. You mentioned that it is a TP-Link router in AP Mode, AP mode should disable the DHCP server (that's probably why you can't see it). I have only used old TP-Link routers that don't have AP Mode and have had to do it manually but from what I've seen, it should just work. Just make sure that the connection from the ISP router is connected to the "WAN" port (it is usually yellow) ipv4 can only be automatically assigned to devices via DHCP while ipv6 is usually assigned with Router Advertisements while can also use DHCPv6 but is rarely used (at least in home setups) because Android refuses to add support for it. Take a look at the ipv6 settings on both the ISP router and on the TP-Link, the TP-Link should not be doing anything besides letting the RA or DHCPv6 work. How is this happening? that is, are your devices disconnected from the wifi, does the internet just stop working, do you get an error message?

    Your lan to the global internet is the connection from the isp to your router. Whatever you get on the speed test is your bandwidth. The only things that you could to to check your router's connection to your isp are 1) check the connection link speed (10/100/1000), 2) check the latency and packet loss by pinging your router's default gateway

    You only have to port forward the port used by minecraft (25565/tcp) to the the old pc. For the web server, you could keep it running on the pi and have the management page on another port (say 88 and 488). If you don't want to have the page running on another port, you could either move the web server from the pi to the old pc or setup a proxy on the pi. Web servers can identify the domain that is being accessed to change what is returned to the browser. They are usually called virtual hosts, you can find some info for nginx here

    I would not recommend to connect one router to another one, you would be double NATed. The apartment router should already limit access to the local network.

    are you using the vpn ip address in the traceroute or the public address? You could host a wireguard server in a vps that has good connectivity to both of you

    For your case, fiber is overkill. Just run the cable either directly on the ground or in a conduit (better future proofing). Ethernet has a maximum distance of 100 meters (328 feet) so you should be fine. Because the cable is buried you don't have to worry about lightning.

    share photos. Maybe we can identify it.

    I also want to add that certain programs (like MInecraft) support SRV dns records. An SRV dns record gives the client an ip/hostname and a port. Allowing it to look nicer for the user. more details

    You would need to run a PBX server. Crosstalk sollutions has some good videos on how to set this up. I have never set one up. If you need help, he has a discord server.

    pfsense is a router os. It does not use docsis. Your modem uses docsis to convert your internet connection from coaxial cable to ethernet. pfsense just takes that ethernet connection. the issue seems to be with DHCP, the weird thing is that your computers are getting a connection but not the routers. For testing I would try to set a manual ip on pfsense. Connect the modem to your computer, write down the ip, gateway and subnet mask and set them on pfsense. This rules out the actual connection and confirms that the issue is with DHCP. I am asuming that both the AMD desktop and the HP laptop are running windows. I would tell spectrum that the direct modem (wan connection) is working on windows but not on any router.

    For me cloudflare (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1) is the fastest but I like to use quad9 (9.9.9.9, 149.112.112.112) because It offers malware protection and the speeds stop making a difference after a certain point.
  14. mtz_federico
    destination network should be 0.0.0.0 and gateway should be 192.168.0.1 (that's you main router's ip). but it shouldn't matter because it is not actually doing any routing. When you are connected to the second router can you access the web portal but not the internet? could you send a screenshot of ipconfig in cmd when connected to the second router Before you do that, I just looked through the settings in the simulator. Go to Security -> Basic Security and try disabling the SPI Firewall.
  15. mtz_federico
    Bummer. I am not sure if that could be the reason why, but it is probably related. Check if your router supports OpenWRT, you might save some money

    This TP-Link article looks good. I would reset your WR845N and then follow the case 2 from that article. Ignore any other info that you have already heard, if you get stuck ask here. This is the latest version of the emulator that I have found. The only difference with that article that I found was in the wireless section. Instead of Wireless -> Wireless Settings it is Wireless -> Basic Settings
  17. mtz_federico
    On the scond screenshot you are giving the router the ip 192.168.0.1, that is the same as your other router. change it to 192.168.0.2. 192.168.0.2 is going to be the ip you use to connect to it's web portal. For some reason your first routers DHCP server (the only one that should be running) is not giving your PC an ip when youa re connected to the second router. For this reason I would set it to router mode.
  18. mtz_federico
    is the second router connected to the first one on the LAN port (LAN to LAN)?
  19. mtz_federico
    This means that it is most likely related to the router have you tried changing the print servers port to something below 1023 and having the port forward rule be tcp only? If you have the port forward rule on the router but the print server is off, does the issue still occur? I have never seen anything like this, your router is probably doing something weird. I hate this question but, have you tried ... restarting your router?
  20. mtz_federico
    The only things that comes to mind is DMZ. Did you enable it? make sure that it is disabled, it might be overriding the port forwarding rules.
  21. mtz_federico
    So when you dsable DHCP the wifi from that router let's you connect to the general internet but you can't connect to the web portal? which IP are you using to connect to it and to your main router?
  22. mtz_federico
    weird, It all looks good. Make sure that the minecraft server is working properly. Try to access it from your computer and if possible from another computer in your local network.
  23. mtz_federico
    Do this. Only have a single port forward rule. You have one to IP 192.168.1.22 and another to 192.168.1.222. Set your computer to one of those static IPs and remove the one for the other IP. Also, is this new router connected to the previous one or did it replace it? Make sure that you are not double NATed I would also switch the protocol from both to TCP but it is not needed, both should work.
  24. mtz_federico
    This. The only thing is that I would not recommend using .2 because it could be handed out to another device via DHCP. I usually use the IPs in the end of the subnet, so .240 to .254. The other option is to change the DHCP settings on the main router, but that is more complicated.
  25. mtz_federico
    what do you mean here? Is it that after disabling DHCP and setting a static ip, you can't access the router's web portal anymore? if that is the case, you need to go to the new ip instead. If you mean gateway address, as in the ip of the router that is used to route traffic to the internet, then it shouldn't matter. I have setup a few tp-link routers that don't have an AP mode to act as AP and they always give me a no internet connection error but it doesn't matter because the devices connected to it can still connect to the internet. and what do you mean by "it doesn't work". what is (or isn't) happening? For a router to act as an AP it needs to: 1. Be connected to your main router via a LAN port 2. Not have any DHCP or DNS server running 3. Have a LAN IP in the same network as your main router. If your main router is 192.168.0.1 then set the AP router to 192.168.0.250. This is the IP that you will use to manage it. 4. Have it's wifi network setup. You can ignore all routing and WAN stuff.
