I got a new Fios WIFI6E router. I wanted to use the old Fios Quantum Gateway into an Extender.
So I went through the steps of disabling the DHCP and the broadband coax thing (Disable Coax link). It's also showing up as 192.168.1.2 so I can get into the UI. So I think everything is working, however it's still broadcasting the old SSID. Do I change it to the same SSID as the new router? Do I just hide the SSID? How does it automatically know to "be" an extender? BTW, SON is turned off, although I don't know if that matters?
Lastly it appears none of the ether ports on the back of the Quantum Gateway are working now. Is there anything I can do to get them working again? Currently in Ethernet properties it says status Disconnected with IPv4 address distro disabled.
