Re: wired router & wifi router

You should then be able to see it after it's put back into the network.

HTH
Many thanks, the above advise worked. I restricted the IP range of the wired router (RP614) to 192.169.0.1-200 and I manually gave a new IP address 192.168.0.254 to the wifi router (wGU264) which is *outside* the range of the other router but on the same subnet. Now the two routers co-exist happily and I can access both via 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.254.

Many thanks to all for your advice.
