Hi!

I want to test the static routing on this configuration.


HOST WIN XP <-> LAN LINKSYS ROUTER WAN <-> WAN LINKSYS ROUTER LAN <->
HOST WIN XP

The first host win xp address is 192.168.1.2 (mask 255.255.255.0).
The LAN interface of the first router is 192.168.1.1 (mask
255.255.255.0) .
The WAN interface of the first router (static) is 150.0.0.1 (mask
255.255.0.0).
The WAN interface of the second router (static) is 150.0.0.2 (mask
255.255.0.0)
The LAN interface of the second router is 220.100.0.1 (mask
255.255.255.0)
The second host win xp address is 200.100.0.2 (mask 255.255.255.0).

The default gateway for the first router is 150.0.0.2
The default gateway for the second router is 150.0.0.1

I have set up static route for the first router to go on the
200.100.0.0 Network. I also have set up static route for the second
router to go on the 192.168.1.0 Network.

When I try to ping from the first host to the LAN interface of the
first router: OK.

When I try to ping from the first host to the WAN interface of the
first router: OK.

When I try to ping from the first host to the WAN interface of the
second router: PROBLEM.

Any suggestion to solve this problem?

Just a guess, but when I specify a default gateway, it is the LAN IP
address of the gateway router.

Good luck, jimbo
