I have a new phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3), so I needed to get it
working with my Linksys WRT54G. The Linksys is connected to the main
router (D-Link), as are two switches for ethernet connections. The only
thing I use the Linksys for is the phone; everthing else is connected
via ethernet (laptop, desktop, HDHomeRun).
When I tried to connect the phone to the Linksys it can't get a
connection. Neither can myt laptop. From Firefox I can get into the
D-Link (192.168.0.1), but Firefox cannot connect to the Linksys
(192.168.0.179).
The reservations in the D-Link are:
Linksys 00:0F:66:09:8C:BF 192.168.0.179
Desktop 00:1A:92:E4:39:68 192.168.0.155
HDHR- 00:18:DD:03:D3:9F 192.168.0.135
Laptop 00:23:54:8C:65:20 192.168.0.126
Also, I actually have two wrt54G routers, so I swapped them out, but no
change.
>From the command line on the laptop:
ifconfig

The results from ifconfig above are baffling. Why are there two
ethernets? And I assume that the missing wlan0 is because something is
wrong with the Linksys configuration. When I disconnect the cable
between the D-Link and the Linksys the lights on both go out, so the
connection must be OK.
Consider that I am an idiot when it comes to networking. Any suggestions
welcome.
