Boost wifi 6 hub - connect to home router?
Just got Telus fiber gig internet installed today, and just have a few questions 🙂 My setup is that the NAH modem is in bridged mode on Port 1, to which I have my own personal router connected. ...
Just in case anybody comes across this in the future:
You can indeed use the Boost wifi with your own router. Its just an Access Point afterall. I have my modem in bridge mode, providing Wan access to my home router. Then I have another port on my router setup for Wireless Access and just plugged the Telus Boost AP in and it got an IP. I then navigated to that IP and setup the wifi by loging in with the username : admin and the password: whats shown on a sticker on the boost AP.
Keep in mind I'm running Pfsense on a custom box and your home router will need to be setup correctly to Access Points to be plugged into whatever port youre gonna use, and Im not sure if all home routers can do that. But if your home router works with any other branded AP, it will work with the boost Telus AP too.
