Sorry if the question got people ask before,

Is there anyway to connect 2 wifi router into a Unifi BTU ? Currently using D-Link DIR-850L provide by TM which is unstable in wifi connection. The connection is inconsistent and easily disconnected even though i am infront of the wifi router. Previously im using TP-LINK ac1200 D5 to connect my streamyx and the wifi is great.
So my question is there any idea to use two wifi router, one is solely for HYppTv (DIR-850L)and another is wifi connection such as gadgets , ip cam etc (TP-LINK AC1200) ? And will it affect the speed as well? Please help, i need your guys advice.

***daisy chain the tplink to the dlink.

From d-link lan port, connect to tplink lan port ****not the wan port!!!!!

Assuming your dlink lan address is 192.168.1.1
Set up tplink lan ip address to 192.168.1.2 manually or something.

Set up dlink dhcp to only give out address from 192.168.1.10 onwards to 192.168.1.255

Setup tplink  to disable dhcp on it. Since your dlink will handle that.

Tplink when set up like that will run as Access point. **your normal wifi setting applies.

dlink wan port connected to the BTU. And the hypptv port 4 still works as per normal.
(you can disable dlink wifi or turn it off so less interference)

Thanks for the reply. But does this work the other way round? Mean that TPlink as my main from BTU. then the DIR-850L from my TPlink. And i will off the DIR-850 wifi ( only use for hyptv purpose). The TPlink will become my main access for internet connection. I notice that if my tplink become the sub from DIR-850L, the ping will become higher. Or can i just replace the DIR-850 to my tplink directly, but im not sure the hypptv will work or not. Sorry for the noob question.

hey sifu, i use my old router as my wireless router (AP) connect to the DIR-850 LAN port. However i notice the ping will become higher 20-40ms when i connect to the second AP. If i connect to the main AP , my ping will below 10ms. Is it normal for the second AP?
