Weird wifi settings please help!
I live with my uncle to take care of his children while he is hospitalized. I know the password of its wifi named let's say for the short TP-LINK. When I connected to wifi, he said no internet. Then...
The best for you is to reduce or merge some network together to get less network and less issues.
Some router can have many SSID. The first one is for the 2.4Ghz and the second is for the 5Ghz. So the network is broadcast on 2 different frequency. After that often the router creates one third SSID for the Guest network. It's use when you don't want that everyone can access to all device on the network. If you want you can disable it and it's gonna be more easy with less SSID.
For the first and second SSID, in the router setting you can often merge the 2 networks ( 2.4Ghz SSID and the 5Ghz SSID) in only one network by check one case. Don't do that only if you use domotics devices or devices that doesn't support 5Ghz network.
About the address IP:
192.168.0.1 is often the address of web interface of the router but some Router use different address. Why it switch the address ? I don't know the answer but I supposed this is one way to keep one access to the web interface page setting. In some router you can set the web interface on only one address ip by clicking in checkbox.
If you're completely lost in the web interface of your router, please provide the model of your router and we can help you with better answer.
