Disable AP isolation on Huawei hg8245h router.

[Wayfarer88]

I am using chromecast 3. I works fine when I connect it to my main router which is huawei hg8245h. But, when I try it to configure it with my Wifi extender (N300 A9 Tenda) it stops working or doesn't give me any casting option. I read some forums and got a hint that I need to disable AP isolation on my main router because it might be creating problem for casting through wifi extender. I have logged in to my huawei router but I can't see any option for disabling AP isolation. This router was provided to me by internet provider. 

Can anyone guide me through? It will be very much appreciated.

Hi Wayfarer88,

Thanks for reaching out. If you're trying to connect through a Wi-Fi extender, please check the extender settings. You will need to disable AP isolation on the Wi-Fi extender before you can set up the Chromecast device and to be able to cast a video content. 

If you're not familiar with how to configure it or if you can't find the option to disable this specific setting on the router, please reach out to your router manufacturer for further help.

Best,

Jennifer
