I think you're looking for a secondary router set as a "Wireless Access Point" or "Dumb Access Point".
I have the same issue, I have 2 wifi routers, with 2 subnets, and it's a pain for some devices, if I'm connected to wifi on subnet A with my phone, I can't cast Youtube to the TV if the TV is on subnet B, I have to switch networks.

I'm gonna try to set a WAP/DAP soon.
- sofixa 4y agoCan't you disable DHCP on one of them and connect it physically to the other? Won't that make it work as a dumb AP, basically?
- rpigab 4y agoThey are connected, and defaut gw is set so you can have internet without problem, but maybe I'm just missing additional routes to specific devices, didn't spend much time looking into it since I usually am connected to the right network when close to my TV. Either way, it's an use case for dumb access points so I should set this up.
