I was asked to come in and clean up a horrific networking problem.
Five computers, two routers, one shared printer.
Internet comes in on DSL and then to a router, finally connecting to
PC1 which also has the printer.
Then for some dumb-ass reason, they string a cable 150 feet from the
first router to the second router.
Four other laptops need access to both routers so they can print to the
single printer on the main wired computer.
The only thing I can figure is they want to be able to roam within
their area with a 100% solid signal. However, Im not sure what the
company was doing who set this up for them.
The first router is a linksys G router and the other is a linksys ??
router. Its in the ceiling and I havent seen it yet. The first router I
dont have to mess with (since I fixed it) but the second one, I just
dont know how to access it.
I found this post but it didnt answer my main questions:

If I type in 192.16.1.1 Im going to get my first router, but who do I
access the second router?
