My Netgear wireless router, WGT624 v3, crashed. The wired section no
longer provides DHCP. In order to provide service (wireless) for my
wife (and maintain a generally pleasant environment) I replaced with
wireless with an old Netgear RP114, long out of service.

I now have modem to RP114 to base computer and using another port on
the RP114 to input on the WGT624 provide wireless to my wife's computer.

Addressing on the RP114 is 192.168.0.1 and my box becomes 192.168.0.2
Netstat shows connections also from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.1 (which
*was* the WGT624 addr).

udp 0 0 192.168.1.2:30724 192.168.1.1:domain ESTABLISHED
udp 0 0 192.168.1.2:51408 192.168.1.1:domain ESTABLISHED


I have changed /etc/resolv.conf to use 192.168.0.1 as nameserver.

Ipconfig on my wife's computer indicates it is 192.168.1.3 with a
gateway of 192.168.1.1.

I cannot ping 192.168.1.[1-3]

What changes do I need to make to connect with samba via my home
network, or is my only choice spending $$$s.


192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2
Modem --> RP114 ---> MyComputer
\
\
WGT624 --> (Wireless) ==> Wife Computer
192.168.1.1 192.168.1.3

I can access the WGT624 from my wife's computer, but not the RP114.
I can access the RP114 from my computer, but not the WGT624

at least not at my knowledge level :^)

What if you made the WGT box simply a switch with no DHCP/Natting
service? Does that box give you that capability? Then let the RP box
determine DHCP for all nodes.

So the wireless access point is going to use a fixed IP address in the same range as the SBS - 192.168.1.x, and that's going to be an IP that's excluded from your DHCP scope so DHCP doesn't hand it out to a different device. ...
