Question : Creating a Hotspot
|
|
Greetings,
I have a friend who owns a restaurant and would like to offer his customers free internet acces. They currently use Verizon DSL which is shared with 3 other XP computers in the office, which is upstairs. What would be the the least expensive way to do this? The restuarant is about 1500 Sq ft. I dont see anymore than 10 people using the wireless at any given time. He wants it to be as simple as possibe for his customers. Can this be done?

If you connect the two wireless routers with a crossover from LAN port to LAN port - you are effectively BRIDGING them, and they're on the same network. That's why I said turn off DHCP on #2 - you only want one dhcp server. You can give #2 an IP address for management like 192.168.1.5. Make sure you use STRONG passwords, and change the username if you can.
