Router to router routing

[S W]

Hi,

I have a zoom voip adsl modem/router, and a linksys WRT54GX wireless access
point/router attached to it.

The zoom has IP addresses in the range 10.0.0.0
the linksys uses 192.168.1.0
I have a PC wired to the zoom, and 3 PCs on the wireless net.
I've set routes in each router from one to the other. I can ping the
10.0.0.0 subnet from 192.168.1.0 but not vice versa.

Would I be better trying to get them on the same subnet?

I want them to be all part of the same workgroup, and to share files and
printers.

Thanks in advance,

SW

It would be far easier to put all the PCs on the same subnet than it would
be to route between the two networks (and troubleshoot when the routing
fails) as long as the goal is for everyone to be one big, happy network.
Turn off the DHCP and routing features on one device or the other.

Thanks for the advice, Richard.
I think I'll do that. I need to read the manuals of both to see what to do
on which one.
