I have a Speedtouch ADSL modem/router and a Linksys WRT54G wifi router.
I want to connect all my computers via the Linksys router, accessing
the internet only through it's firewall. Everything seems to be working
fine, except the router is not talking to the modem.
Here's the setup:
ADSL Modem LAN interface
IP address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Primary DNS: 83.143.8.249
Secondary DNS: 83.143.8.246
DHCP: disabled
IP pool 192.168.1.64 thru 200
When I connect my laptop(s) directly to the modem, using fixed IP's, I
can connect to the internet:
IP address 192.168.1.64
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.254
Primary DNS: 83.143.8.249
Secondary DNS: 83.143.8.246
The wireless router is working fine with the same laptop reconfigured
without a fixed IP, both wired and wireless:
Linksys router LAN interface
IP address: 192.168.1.1
DHCP: enabled
IP Range: 192.168.1.10 thru 19
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
The problem comes when I connect the modems ethernet port to the router
uplink. The Linksys router Internet interface uses the same setup as
the successful laptop setup above:
IP address 192.168.1.64
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.254
Primary DNS: 83.143.8.249
Secondary DNS: 83.143.8.246
With the laptop connected to the Linksys router, I can't access the
internet. I can ping 192.168.1.64, which is the Linksys address, but I
can't ping the modem gateway or DNS servers. Is my TCP/IP setup wrong?
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance.
