N1 Side Router Usage

· 1 min read

Recently moved and replaced the main router. To solve access issues for some devices at home, I’m setting up the N1 as a side router again.

Marking this down here

  1. First determine the fixed internal IP for N1 under the new router, for example I set it to 192.168.5.200

  2. While N1 is connected to the old router, access N1 and modify IP address, gateway, custom DNS (which is the main router IP information)

  3. Connect N1 to the new router and access the new IP address

  4. Configure openclash on N1

  5. For corresponding devices like NS, choose manual configuration of IP address/subnet mask/gateway/DNS information

This way, for devices that need scientific internet access, you can manually configure them as above. Of course, using Surge DHCP is also good, but here I chose the N1 side router solution for stability considerations.
