Re: [slim] SB3 can not connect to 2nd router when using 2 routers

You have two instances of NAT (Network Address Translation) going. One on the speedtouch and one on the linksys. Decide what device you want to use as a firewall and what device you want to use for wireless. My suggestion is to get into the config on the speedtouch and disable the wireless. If

I do the same thing. If they're connected via a cable (which you say they are) then why do you bother about the SSID on the SpeedTouch - just turn wireless off on this altogether. That will make things much simpler as there will be only one possible router to which devices can connect. -- amey0

Try one SSID for both. That's the standard multi-access point approach. -- Millwood 2 SB3, 1 Duet Debian Etch server 2 AP (netgear, linksys) wireless network. Millwood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?

Good idea! i tried it and the SB3 did connect via a wired connect using an IP address of 192.168.1.68. I tried doing it wirelessly and manually selecting this IP address and it seemed to connect to the network but then failed to connect to the SqueezeCenter. So this was better but still not quite

So everything else wireless and wired connects to the Linksys and works, getting IP addresses and DNS from DHCP on the SpeedTouch. Ok. Test moving the SB3 so you can connect wired to the Linksys. Can it see the DHCP server then? If so, that narrows the problem to a wireless one. Once it connects

Many thanks - sounds like we have near identical setups with the difference that yours works! Regarding my LinkSys -> Setup -> Advanced Routing tab, I can not see an Operating Mode (or anywhere else for that matter). There is a "Nat mode" which is Enabled. It says in the help that this should be

My setup is very similar and is working with a Zyxel ISP provided broadband router and Linksys WRT54GS. My music server is hard wired to the Linksys and the SB3 is connected to it via wireless. The Zyxel wireless runs on a different channel and as yours, has the same security settings except for S

If you have control over the speedtouch router's address, change it to the more standard 192.168.1.1 I have some vague memories about issues with high addresses - not specifically SB3 but just stuff. -- Millwood 2 SB3, 1 Duet Debian Etch server 2 AP (netgear, linksys) wireless network. -

Don't quite understand your wiring. What is the "net" socket. And where are you plugging the other end of that wire into the linksys. The correct way to use a router (linksys) as an access-point and switch is to. 1. Give it an address on the network implemented by the router that is different

Hi - I have a (not very good) SpeedTouch router which my ISP requires me to use. I hook a LinkSys WRT54GX into the SppedTouch via the NET socket. Both routers have the same WEP key. On the secondary LinkSys router I set "Internet connection type" to "Auto config DHCP" and I also disable "DHCP Serv
