4, If I chain the two routers together by plugging one of the ports on the wireless router into a Lan port on the non-wireless router I can print but I can't access the internet wirelessly.
Clearly there is some funky network stuff going on here but it is way out of my league. Any suggestions? Where do I look for help?
Thanks, Mark ------------------------------------------ I don't know if anyone here can help you just getting the printer to work on the wireless router or not, but number 4 is the correct way to connect the two routers (LAN - LAN). Though before you do that you are going to have to connect to the wired router, login, and turn off its DHCP server. That should fix your problems.
That's because the wireless router when it sees you trying to access the Internet it tries to send it out the WAN port where there is nothing. Look through the wireless router setup to see if there is an option to disable the WAN routing or to make it just an access point. Some of the routers I've used do this, some don't.
