Hi
I have a main router (Asus RT-AC87U) and wired to that I have configured an Access Point (Asus RT-AC66U), the reason for the AP is to get larger coverage. Both Asus units are running latest version of the Asus Merlin firmware. The main router has 2 SIDs (2,4 and 5 GHz) and the AP has the same setup with 2 different SID names. My main pc is connected with wire to the main router.
When a pc is connected wirelessly to the AP I can see it connected on the main router with an IP-adress (it is marked as if it has a wired connection though). If I try to connect to it (regardless of if I use the computer name or the IP-adress) Remote Desktop is not able to connect. If the same pc is connected wirelessly directly to the main router (not through the AP) I can connect to it from my main pc without any problems.
My question is why can't I connect to the pc from my main pc when it is connected through the AP?
Thanks in advance!
