I thought to use a WAP, you had to disable DHCP on all but the main router, no?
no, I do not have DHCP disabled on the Linksys LAN router and it works fine. However, I have tried this on the Belkin WAP, and it doesn't make a difference.
Try setting the Belkin to 192.168.1.2
setting it to that would defeat the whole purpose of the setup, which is to isolate the LAN from the WAP
and disable DHCP on the Belkin and see if that works. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Winterlight Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 3:43 PM To: The Hardware List Subject: RE: [H] Linksys / Belkin router setup At 12:31 PM 8/8/2006, you wrote: >Disable DHCP on the Belkin WAP? It has to be DHCP in order to support a variety of users, doesn't it? other wise wouldn't all users have to have a assigned IP address? >Sync domains/workgroups? I don't get this?? There are no workgroups on the WAP, or the WAN router. The domain is COX and is universal to all three routers. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Winterlight >Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 3:13 PM >To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com >Subject: [H] Linksys / Belkin router setup > >I am setting up my LAN with three routers in order to isolate the WIFI >from the LAN. > >LAN1 ---Linksys 192.168.1.1 > | > WAN3 --- Linksys 192.168.3.1 > | >WIFI2 --- Belkin 192.168.2.1 > >All three routers are with four port switch and WIFI, and all are new this >year.
