Help! Connecting two routers

• Connecting two routers via a static route

  I have a relatively simple configuration involving a Wireless-N Router and a wireless-B router (several years).  The N wireless router is connected to the internet (via DSL modem) and accepts several DHCP clients without problem.  Wireless - b router is connected to the Wireless-N router.  To do this, I connected the WAN port on the router wireless - b to a port on the router Wireless N ethernet (did not use the uplink). I have a PC connected to the router wireless - b, so I want him to be able to hit the internet, but also be accessible to DHCP clients on the Wireless N router.  The PC connects to the internet successfully, but it does not find clients on the network supported by the Wireless-N router.  It's about my setup:

  B 192.168.55.1 wireless router (LAN) 192.168.56.102 (WAN)

  PC 192.168.55.10 (active dhcp)

  Wireless N 192.168.56.1 (LAN) x.x.x.x (internet)

  (several clients dhcp... 192.168.56.100...)

  I've added a static route in the hope that a computer on the network of the Wireless N router would be able to hit the PC, but nothing helped. I've added a static route as such, on the Wireless-N router, which was the only way that that would enable the web interface:

  Destination LAN 192.168.55.0

  Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

  Gateway 192.168.56.102

  I tried to place the router without wireless - B gateway mode, then router and changed mode, then return.  I can connect to the web interface of the router wireless - b from the PC, and I can connect to the internet from the PC.  Also, the PC is able to reach customers on Wireless N, but the reverse is not true, i.e. clients on Wireless N can't find clients on the wireless - B network. Also, I turned on the port forwarding on the router wireless - B so that it points to the PC, in the hope he would lead all traffic to the PC, but still cannot access PC.  How to configure both routers (or both set up as access point?) so that clients on the Wireless N Router can talk to customers on the wireless router - B?  For now, all customers are on DHCP, but finally, I would like to create static entries for at least two or three of them.

  Thanks in advance

  Are Linksys routers teas? If so what model is router B? It may not supported for a DHCP client port forwarding. Even if you can get the port forwarding to work for a client on router B, it will not work for several clients.

  In addition, if you have the option in router B, disable the SPI Firewall. It is the cause of the problem, in my opinion. If you do this, you should port forward.

  Is there a reason that you connect the routers via the WAN port on the router B? You could uplink using an ethernet port on the B to an ethernet port on the N and avoid all this... You can always configure router B as a point of wireless access for specific customers.

• Connecting two routers WRT54G2 to extend the signal

  I have available two routers wireless broadband Linksys G (WRT54G2), given to me by a family member. We use one of the routers by itself for some time, but have no adequate signal throughout our House. I decided it would be easier to design the floor plan of the House for you to see his situation compared with the rest of the House on the walls that do not. We have the HughesNet satellite internet which is on the roof just about the location of the modem and router at the bottom right of the image.

  What do you think would be the best location of the main router? I read it would be more centrally located, because the signal travels horizontally and vertically. I just bought a 100' Ethernet cable being the only one that we had what the HughesNet Installer provided us with which is about 4'. I initially thought I would be the cable from main router to the basement where the second router is placed since the signal there is about 1 in 3 bars on my iPhone. The signal on the floor in the ranges of the main room (room at the top in the middle of the image) of 3-5 off 5 bars on my laptop.

  I wanted to just put a post sooner rather than later to see what your views were on the location of the main router and I have to increase the signal.

  Let me know if you have any questions to a better response.

  I have updated the firmware on the main router.

  

  If you want to configure the router as an access point 2 then the connection will be LAN to LAN which means the LAN port of the router port main o the 2nd router's LAN... But before you connect to the main router.

  You should first connect the 2nd router to your laptop, go to the configuration page. Configure wireless settings it is firstly, ethier you set up another name and password is all up to you. Then change the IP address to a number of 192.168.1.x(any fera l'affaire) and disable DHCP... then after that connect to the main router.

• connecting two routers, different ISP

  I have a BEFSR41 on Charter broadband, to 20 MB, and a WRT54GL connected to AT & T DSL at 1.5 MB.  I would like the AT & T DSL to be my "rescue" if my broadband fails; but here they are on the same network, so that I can connect as and share resources.  Is it possible to do this with my current gear?  I don't want to slow down broadband connections and would love to be able to choose which network, if necessary.  (Is this bridge?)

  It is not possible. Those are mainstream devices and do not support failover router. The best you can do is to configure two routers to work independently with their internet connection. That power to one of them. If you need pass, you have to rewire and switch on the other router. I think that there is no other alternative...

• AM300: Helps connect two computers

  I was wondering, because there are two USB keys and Port Ethernet on the Am300, can I connect two computers to it at the same time, we use the USB port and the

  other using Ethernet?

  Yes, you can certainly connect two ports.

• With the help of two routers to share in may neighbors connection

  Hi, I wonder if anyone can help?

  My neighbors gave me it is code WPA to share it is on the internet and I was picking up using an antenna usb plugged into a portable tops that will share its ethernet connection to router wireless WRT54G linksys so send the signal to my house. Because it means that the laptop must remain in the same place and always be on, I decided to implement my old Wi - Fi tp-link router point in client mode and now pick up the signal on that instead of the antenna usb but when I connect directly to the WRT54G Router I get limited access, are there changes in the settings of the WRT54G to make ethernet direct feeding from the work of tp-link? Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

• Connect two routers wireless from a modem, in two separate buildings

  I'm new here, not completely incompitant and certainly not to this day with all the jargon, please make a simple answer.  I need to install 1 wireless router in a building where I recently installed the clients of satellite internet system.  You will also need to come from this internet connection to another building from about 100 feet away, where I will install a second wireless router.  The routers I bought are "N" and exactly the same thing.

  In my mind, I could come of the modem, to the first wireless router, creating the network in this building.  Detach from one of the ethernet ports on the back of this router with a Cat5 goes out of the building, the second building, where I would connect the Cat5 into the wan port on the wireless router second creation of the network for the second building.

  Not sure if it will work.  Don't know about bridging.  Please keep it simple.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Me

  You don't want to connect to the internet port of the second router. Instead do it this way.

  With this configuration if use identical SSID and wireless security settings you can even create a mobile wireless network, which is a wireless client can move the wireless AP to another (assuming that there is of course an overlapping coverage).

• Need help connecting 2 routers

  Hello, I was scratching around the search for a solution to my problem for a few weeks now.

  I have 2 routers (connected according to the picture below) - I have it set up so that I can collect access logs (one of the routers is bit I found that can connect internet URL) to any person who connects via wifi on the BEF router, however I cannot get an internet connection using a LAN port (according to the red line). I read that to record the activity that I need to connect via the internet port (yellow dotted line), but I can't make it work, and it's frustrating the heck out of me now

  Does anyone have any solutions for this?

  Thanks in advance.

  

  What is the address IP of WAG?

  Press and hold the reset button on the BEFW router for 30 seconds. Release the reset and wait 30 seconds. Open the BEFW router configuration page. Change the local IP address of BEFW to 192.168.5.1.

  Connect to port Internet router BEFW WAG. Cycle power to the BEFW11S4 router. Now try to access internet through router BEFW11S4. DO not disable the DHCP server on the router BEFW11S4.

• Want to connect two routers in series, both are from Dlink but different models.

  Hi all, I just moved into a new place here it was very impossible to get the network the current router wireless, so I ran an Ethernet (cat 5e) cable out of reach (i.e. many sites say the maximum range is about 328 feet (100 meters), I ran about 400 feet), but works fine when I connect the Ethernet cable directly to my laptop , but when I tried to connect the Ethernet cable to the router from the same company but a different model. First router is directly connected to the modem and it is Dlink 628 and the second who I am trying to connect is Dlink 601. One end of the cable is connected to the router first in a LAN port and the Internet port on the second router.

  Now the problem is my laptop connects to the first router cable and works fine and also connection to the second router, but I couldn't access the Internet. what I would do.

  Please help and thank you.

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  You don't want to use the second router as a router, but as an access point. Disable DHCP on the second router. See the Web of D-Link tech site or the manual on how to do it. Make sure that the second router has an IP address outside the range of the DHCP of the router first, but on the same subnet. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• I have two routers. My new computer will only connect to one. How can I connect at once?

• Need to "bind" the two routers

  Hi guys, I need advice here.

  I just bought a new TV and a new DVD which can access the Internet for interactive stuff. But for this, I need a key specific wireless by the manufacturer or a LAN connection. I don't want to buy the key wireless, but I want to use the LAN connections (TV 1) and 1 for the DVD. Unfortunaly, I don't want a cable everywhere in my house just to tie these new devices to the Internet.

  Since I have two wireless routers, I wondered if I could 'Wireless' bind my routers to save cable. All the 'ordinary' stuff will still be connected to my main router.

  Here is what I intend to do:
  Connect my modem to my main router (WRT610N v2).
  Wireless connect my secondary router (WRT54G v3) to my main router (WRT610N v2). [this is where I need help]
  Connect both TV and DVD by wire to my secondary router.

  I hope you can help me with this...

  Thank you guys!

  Sorry, you can not connect two routers wireless with Linksys firmware.  You must use a wire to two routers in cascade.  However, it is 3rd firmware in party that will allow, DD - WRT.  Search the Web and see if it will work for you.

• Help cascading two Linksys routers

  Hi, I tried to cascade two Linksys routers, but it did not work for me. Maybe you could help us. The first (which has the connection of the cable modem) is the brand new E4200, and the second is the former WRT54GCv3.

  That's how I want cascading them:

  ···································································
  Linksys E4200 ----(wireless)----(Desktop PC)·······················
  gw: 192.168.1.1 ·············|--(Laptop)···························
  ······|······················|--(iPad)·····························
  ······~······················|--(Home Server)······················
  ····(PLC)··························································
  ······~····························································
  ······|····························································
  Linksys WRT54GCv3 ·················································
  (Router mode|DHCP/NAT disabled) --(wireless)----(Playstation 3)····
  gw: 192.168.1.2 ·····························|--(Samsung BD-C8500)·
  ···································································
  

  However, the WRT54GCv3 does not receive the IP address of the DHCP E4200. I also tried to connect directly (without the PLC), even specifying a static IP address on the router second, but I got the same results.

  I have to State, that I will not change the gateway IP/first router because I have a web server and game works with a static IP address and I don't want to put it temporarily offline due to adjust the network settings.

  Thanks for your support!

  I searched the forum for you and found your answer.

• Two routers connected, but no Internet on the router downstream

  Hi, I followed the instructions in the FAQ for routers chaining daisy with only partial success.  I have a WRT54GS V6 router configured as my gateway.  The downstream router is a BEFSR41 v4.  Both have the latest firmware.

  I have visibility on the full network of machines, but the PC connected to the router downstream has no access to the internet.  PC connected to the router upstream did.

  I tried to exchange the two routers and reconfiguration, but only once the PC connected to the router upstream has access to the internet.

  Current configuration:

  Gateway - router WRT54GS

  Router IP: 192.168.1.1

  From IP ADDR: 192.168.1.100

  DHCP server: enabled

  Downstream BEFSR41 router.

  Router IP: 192.168.1.2

  DHCP server: disabled

  Any help is appreciate

  Thank you

  On a computer that has no internet open a command prompt window and type "ipconfig/all". After the output full in your next post.

• Problem setting up Port Forwarding with two routers.

  I can't set up by Linksys RT31P2 and routers port forwarding WRT160Nv3.

  My setup is Webstar Modem = RT31P2 = WRT160N = Mac OS 10.6.5. (No configurable modem and ISP do not prevent port forwarding. It comes with two Linksys routers).

  I had a Monty Python-going around with the support of Cisco cat; and follow up with telephone assistance in which the agent knew nothing about port forwarding and his supervisor expressed the view that it was not possible with two routers. Sigh.

  If anyone can help me with step by step specific and simple instructions to configure routers. I know that the basic procedures. I'm not clear, what exactly changes on routers.

  I read that portforward.com has to say and it does not work so I must be misunderstanding something.

  The ip address of my computer is 192.168.1.103.  Are the last three digits of this speech concluded the two routers in the area on the port forwarding page? What other changes should be done what router?

  I know the port numbers that I use are OK because I can implement successfully if I connect to one or other of the routers (but not both), and my software of p2p shows port are open.

  Any help and suggestions most welcome.

  If you set up as I have suggested that you have only a single LAN that will be using in your addresses * 192.168.15 case. So in your case:

  1. change the address LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.15.2 WRT.
  2 disable the DHCP server.
  3. connect the LAN of the WRT port to port LAN of the RT.

  That's all. Disable the DHCP server will not affect whatever it is that you're connected LAN - LAN and DHCP server on the RT is still operational.

  After the change, previously the WRT computers may require a reboot to get a new address 192.168.15. *.

  Your computer to which you are transferring must have an IP static and not dynamic (or variable). Check the current IP information on this computer. It must have an IP address like 192.168.15.103, mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.15.1 subnet and DNS 192.168.15.1 server or maybe two other IP addresses instead. Note DNS servers if you do not 192.168.15.1.

  Then configure a static IP address on the computer. Use something like 192.168.15.10, 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.15.1 and the DNS servers you found before.

  After this implement 192.168.15.10 port forwarding.

• VLAN between two routers

  Hello. I am trying to solve a practical problem and I can't seem to deliver the VLAN. The presentation is as follows:

  You have two two routers connected to each other. Each router has a switch and each switch has four related generic PC. Each PC on this switch belongs on its own VIRTUAL local network. Thus,.

  Switch 1	Switch 2
  PC A - VLAN 10	PC E - VLAN 10
  PC B - VLAN 20	PC F - VLAN 20
  PC C - VLAN 30	PC G - VLAN 30
  PC D - VLAN 40	PC H - VLAN 40

  So A PC on the router/switch 1 1 can ping ROUTER2/switch 2 E PC and it cannot ping all the others. So on and so forth.

  So I tried to adjust the C VLAN 10 PC to check if the configuration of my work, and it does. But then I tie my router and sub interfaces, set the fa0/1 interface on my switch such as trunk and permit VLAN 10, 20, 30 and 40. Now, all PC on the router can ping each other! That should not happen. Now I don't know what the problem is. Can someone help me?

  I have attached the docx and the tracer file package.

  Sorry that I just realized you don't want connectivity between all computers.

  Which is a relief, because watching your Setup, I didn't see why they wouldn't be able to :-)

  You must use the ACLs on your subinterfaces to allow only the traffic you want.

  If you want to allow any PC from any other PC on the same site to ping but only the PC in the same vlan on the other site, then use an outbound acl on the router serial interfaces.

  If you only want to allow ping between the PC in the same vlan ACL use traffic entering on the subinterfaces.
