Any recommendatinos on sources for home wireless setup? My situation is that I've got an existing, wired network in the study consisting of three desktop computers (two debian, one of which acts as the firewall/iptables router, and one Win98) and one laptop. I want the laptop to go wireless, and it's got a working wireless card which I've successfully used on the UNC campus's wireless network. I bought a WAP (Belkin) to use for the home network. The question is... what's the right way to set it up? It defaults to an IP address of 192.168.0.254 which is fine by me since the other machines on the home network are 192.168.0.[3..14]. But how do I set up the laptop and WAP so that packets from the laptop wind their way through the WAP, then through the router/firewall machine? Setting the gateway to either 192.168.0.254 (the WAP) or 192.168.0.3 (the router machine) doesn't seem to work.
Thanks for any advice. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew J Perrin - http://www.unc.edu/~aperrin Assistant Professor of Sociology, U of North Carolina, Chapel Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED] * andrew_perrin (at) unc.edu _______________________________________________ TriLUG mailing list http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ: http://www.trilug.org/~lovelace/faq/TriLUG-faq.html
