How can I connect second AP to HS8145V?

Hello all,

Lately I changed my ISP and finally got a fiberwire in my home. The ISP equipped me with HS8145V fiber router. It works very nice, but the router is in the attic, and the WiFi range on the ground level is weak. I would like to expand WiFi coverage by connecting my old Asmax router and make a simple AP.


As I wrote above, my Huawei router is in the attic. Then there comes a 1Gb LAN cable that is connected to the switch on the ground floor. This switch connects all cable devices at home. All of them work fine.

However, I tried to connect the Asmax to this switch, setting a static IP, but as I can see the Asmax is logged and can be seen by the Huawei in the control panel, it can not obtain IP number for the connected WiFi devices. After few attempts they disconnect.


How should I configure the Huawei router, enabling getting the IP addresses for WIFI via Asmax, while providing the internet through the switch for devices over the cable? I have only one cable (in the wall) that connects the router with a switch and the only option is to connect the AP to the switch. At the same time, I want to keep the switch connection with cable devices.

It feels so complicated. I do not think it is necessary to configure it on Huawei ONT. It should be configured on the switch.

Well, the switch is not configurable. It's just simple lan hub.
I found some other post about similar problem here:
https://forum.huawei.com/enterpr ... hread/467425-100181

but I wonder if I would configure the ONT like described in this post, if the other cable devices would still have access to the Internet.
It's a new stuff, I don't want to mess anything ;)

Really? I thought It's a common solution to extend WiFi range. This network is very simple and I would say that is rather common construction.
It looks like
FTTH router ->switch ->other devices

I suggest you try this:
Configure the DHCP relay on the AP. When the DHCP is configured on the Huawei ONT, the fixed IP address of the upstream AP is excluded.
