Sagemcom 5G router/modem wifi to lan

Hi there,

How can I (if possible) connect 2 devices on my Sagemcom Fast 5866T, one through LAN and the other on the 5GHz channel?

I need to connect my VR to the modem/router through the 5GHz channel, but for it to be able to see my PC which is connected via LAN to the Sagemcom.

 

Thanks,

Gavin

hi @Gavin2 . What is a "VR"?

If a device connects to a router and gets an ip address, in your case one ethernet and one wifi, the PC can ping the other device, and should be able to connect to it.

Hi David,

Yeh I ended up being able to ping it, but would not connect to it.  After trying for ages, I think it was to do with the program itself or some firewall/porting rules etc.  I worked around it by using my spare Netgear router that I had.  It was to connect my VR (Virtual Reality) headset.
