- make sure the LAN IPs of the routers are NOT the same
(eg 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3 and so on)
- expanding the network is done by connecting LAN ports of your routers,
don't use the WAN port of the "extending" router
It's possible your routers are using identical LAN addresses, so there's a
conflict in that way
If the routers LAN addresses are very different (192.168.0.1 and
192.168.1.1) then they are too different, so it might be hard to find it
Only enable ONE routers DHCP function
