I just bought a Ubiquiti Dream 7 router, connected OK, but all (most of) my devices are connecting to the DR7, not the ASUS extender. I have set the ASUS up using the app, it is working and is set to repeater mode.

I have the DR7 in my main room connected to the ISP modem, and the ASUS extender between the main room and my office.

The DR7 can see the ASUS, but the topology shows everything connected to the DR7, nothing appears to be connected to the ASUS, but I think that's because the DR7 doesn't know it's a repeater because it's not a Ubiquiti device.

If I connect to the ASUS web interface, it does show a couple of devices connected, but there should be a lot more connecting from my office.

How can I force my office devices to connect to the ASUS repeater and not the DR7?

Thanks.
