I remember
01. Configure the 1st router
02. Power on 2nd router and press the H key.
03. They would auto hookup each other as Wifi or LAN mesh.
I guess the steps should be the same as a year ago.
Hi all,
Am not IT savy and it was interesting reading your posts and advice.
I have an existing Huawei WS5200 ver 9.1.3.6 (C102) China Telecom 中国电信版 - setup as secondary AP using ethernet cable.
Just bought a Huawei AX3 Quad Core Singapore version which is setup as primary AP router.
ONT > AX3 SG version > WS5200 CN version
Currently having 2 different SSIDs to distinguish which AP connection.
AX3 SG version was English setup using Huawei Life app in SG selection.
WS5200 CN version could only be setup using Huawei HiLink app.
I tried pressing the H link buttons on both APs in various ways but the LED lights just keeps blinking but no nothing happens.
Can I use the AX3 as a main AP router and connect the WS5200 using HiLink Mesh? I read somewhere that Global and China versions are incompatible and will appreciate your advice on HiLink Mesh compatibility between these 2 routers.
Much thanks.
Update:
I managed to set the WS5200 in bridge mode after accessing the admin webpage (all in Chinese). Had to disable DHCP and use static IP for the WS5200.
Thereafter, when devices are connected to WS5200, they are now "seamlessly" connected to AX3 and can communicate with other devices connected to the AX3.
