After purchasing the 11ac wireless LAN router, the next step is to install.The method of installing a new wireless LAN router is "1.How to completely replace it with an existing router "," 2.How to use it as an access point of wireless LAN instead of as a router "," 3.There are three major methods: a double installation under the existing router.Each has its advantages and disadvantages, so I briefly summarized it in the table.
| 設置方法によるメリットとデメリット | ||
|---|---|---|
| 方法 | メリット | デメリット |
| 1既存のルーターと置き換え | ・機器が増えずスマート・レンタルの場合、返却することで月額料金が安くなる場合も | ・設定が難しい場合がある・ひかり電話など、元のルーターにあった内蔵機能が使えなくなる |
| 2.アクセスポイントとして使う | ・設定が簡単・元のルーターの有線LANも同じネットワークとして利用できる | ・新しいルーターの機能をフルに使えない |
| 3.ルーターを二重に設置 | ・設定が簡単 | ・元のルーターの有線LANとは別ネットワークになる・外部からNASへアクセスするといった特殊機能が使えない場合がある |
Recommendations are in order from the top."3.The method of installing a double under an existing router "" may not be opened by the first router setting screen, or a server software that opens the port with UPNP and makes it possible to connect from the outside do not work well.Because it is more likely, it is safer not to use it unless you want to divide the network on purpose.
Ideally, "1.The way to replace it with an existing router is good, but the existing rental router cannot be removed because of the use of IP phones (Hikari phone).There is no way to stop the function of the rental router and use it as a TA exclusively for IP telephone, but this time it is more convenient..How to use it as an access point for wireless LAN, not as a router.There is an advantage that it is easy to install because it is not necessary to set the provider connection.
So, when the policy is decided, it is practice.This time, I tried two combinations: Buffalo "WSR-2533DHP" and "iPad Mini 4", and setups using TP-Link "Archer C7" and PC.
